GravityView 3.0 brings AI-built Views and a new theme; the suite ships weekly.
GravityView reached 3.0 in June 2026 with the Vantage theme, AI-assisted View creation, page-builder embedding, and frontend bulk actions, then settled into weekly launch-log releases refining maps, DataTables, filtering, and conditional logic. The feed is a GravityKit suite log, so GravityView updates arrive interleaved with sibling products like GravitySearch.
Speakeasy is hardening into a governance and distribution layer for AI agents and MCP
Speakeasy is shipping across three surfaces (Platform, Dashboard, Elements) at a rapid clip. The center of gravity is AI-agent governance: shadow-MCP inventory, RBAC over remote MCP servers, plugin audiences, a skills registry, and resilience so control-plane outages don't halt developers. Model pickers track the latest models with safe fallbacks.

The feed is a GravityKit suite log, so GravityView updates arrive interleaved with sibling products like GravitySearch.
Post-3.0 the cadence is incremental hardening: accessibility (row headers), 3D maps, distance sorting, and search, while AI and MCP tooling spread across the suite. GravityView is broadening from a data-display plugin toward an AI-assisted, map-rich data layer on top of Gravity Forms.
Expect continued weekly point improvements to Maps, DataTables, and search, with the AI/MCP View tooling maturing rather than another large version bump soon.

Model pickers track the latest models with safe fallbacks.
The product is moving from observing AI usage to controlling and distributing it: skills and plugins are becoming managed, versioned artifacts pushed into Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, while BYO model keys and honest token accounting sharpen the cost story. MCP governance is maturing from lists into investigable inventory.
Expect deeper MCP and skills governance, more granular RBAC, and distribution controls that treat agent capabilities like managed software packages.
