What is Infobip?

A CPaaS rebuilding around AI agents that act, not just channels that deliver

Infobip publishes quarterly roll-ups, and the feed stores each quarter twice — once as a bare label, once as the summary paragraph. Across Q3 2025 to Q1 2026 the through-line is consistent: AgentOS unifying the communication stack, AI agents that take action rather than reply, MCP servers connecting models to real channels, and AI voice work under Vocalize, against continued WhatsApp, RCS and CDP investment.

What is Tawk.to?

tawk.to ships a programmable widget API and AI assistant improvements while maintaining its free-forever positioning.

tawk.to is a free live chat widget with a very consistent release cadence: version bumps every 4–8 weeks, mostly bug fixes with occasional capability additions. The recent v4.2.0 adds a JavaScript API for pre-filling chat messages (setChatInputMessage), and v4.1.0 adds a transcript-request notification API—both are developer-facing hooks that give embedding sites more control over the chat experience. The AI assistant, which focuses on visitor messages rather than form content, has been live and iterating.

A CPaaS rebuilding around AI agents that act, not just channels that deliver

◆ Current state

Infobip publishes quarterly roll-ups, and the feed stores each quarter twice — once as a bare label, once as the summary paragraph. Across Q3 2025 to Q1 2026 the through-line is consistent: AgentOS unifying the communication stack, AI agents that take action rather than reply, MCP servers connecting models to real channels, and AI voice work under Vocalize, against continued WhatsApp, RCS and CDP investment.

◆ Where it's heading

The company is repositioning from delivering messages to running autonomous customer interactions on top of them. Channels are becoming the substrate; the product being sold is the agent layer above. MCP servers matter most here — they make Infobip's channel reach callable by models a customer already runs, rather than requiring Infobip's own agent builder.

◆ Prediction

Expect the next quarterly to lead with AgentOS depth — orchestration, handoff and measurement across agents — since the channel and MCP groundwork it needs has now shipped over three consecutive quarters.

tawk.to ships a programmable widget API and AI assistant improvements while maintaining its free-forever positioning.

◆ Current state

tawk.to is a free live chat widget with a very consistent release cadence: version bumps every 4–8 weeks, mostly bug fixes with occasional capability additions. The recent v4.2.0 adds a JavaScript API for pre-filling chat messages (setChatInputMessage), and v4.1.0 adds a transcript-request notification API—both are developer-facing hooks that give embedding sites more control over the chat experience. The AI assistant, which focuses on visitor messages rather than form content, has been live and iterating.

◆ Where it's heading

The JavaScript API additions point toward tawk.to making its widget more programmable—suitable for embedding in more complex web applications where the host site needs to orchestrate the chat flow. The privacy consent updates (US consent notice, browser privacy settings integration) show compliance awareness. This is not a product pivoting toward AI; it's a stable free-tier product making steady incremental improvements.

◆ Prediction

More JS API surface expansion is likely, as that's where the recent spark of activity is. tawk.to's model depends on volume (free tier drives upgrades), so developer-friendly embedding improvements directly serve distribution.
