Gravity Wiz vs OSRM: at a glance
What is Gravity Wiz?
Gravity Wiz previews Flowcrafter, a visual workflow canvas for Gravity Forms.
Gravity Wiz has been launching whole products: GP Bookings 1.0 in August, a free Entry Archive plugin in July, and Product Configurator 1.0 and Spam Hexer in June. On November 6 it opened early access to Flowcrafter Beta 1, a free plugin for building Gravity Forms processes on a visual canvas with steps, decisions, approval waits and a record of each run.
What is OSRM?
OSRM follows plaza routing with driving-side detection and turn costs against traffic.
OSRM releases monthly, date-versioned. Version 26.9.0 in September added routing through pedestrian areas and plazas; 26.10.0 resolves driving side from way coordinates, costs turns against traffic, simplifies plaza outlines at extraction and fixes plaza edge cases. Version 26.11.0 on November 1 is dependency bumps and build tooling.

Gravity Wiz
3.8DEVOPS
Gravity Wiz previews Flowcrafter, a visual workflow canvas for Gravity Forms.
◆ Current state
Gravity Wiz has been launching whole products: GP Bookings 1.0 in August, a free Entry Archive plugin in July, and Product Configurator 1.0 and Spam Hexer in June. On November 6 it opened early access to Flowcrafter Beta 1, a free plugin for building Gravity Forms processes on a visual canvas with steps, decisions, approval waits and a record of each run.
◆ Where it's heading
Each launch takes Gravity Forms further from data collection: bookings made it a scheduling tool, and Flowcrafter makes it a process engine where a submission starts multi-step work. The pattern is broad new surfaces, with beta and alpha releases before 1.0.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Flowcrafter betas adding steps and integrations with existing perks such as GP Bookings, before a 1.0 release.
OSRM
2.5DEVOPS
OSRM follows plaza routing with driving-side detection and turn costs against traffic.
◆ Current state
OSRM releases monthly, date-versioned. Version 26.9.0 in September added routing through pedestrian areas and plazas; 26.10.0 resolves driving side from way coordinates, costs turns against traffic, simplifies plaza outlines at extraction and fixes plaza edge cases. Version 26.11.0 on November 1 is dependency bumps and build tooling.
◆ Where it's heading
The plaza work is being refined in the releases after it shipped, while the rest of the monthly train is CI and dependency upkeep. Feature work arrives every few months rather than every release.
◆ Prediction
26.12.0 in early December is the likely next entry; whether it carries routing changes or only maintenance is unclear.
