What is Juuno?

The app catalogue keeps widening while the platform underneath it gets reworked

Juuno is a digital signage platform that ships one consolidated release note per month, and the August 2026 edition is catalogue growth plus plumbing. Three more screen apps arrive — Clock, While You Wait and WiFi QR — alongside major Media Library work and drag-and-drop uploads directly into playlists and configuration modals. The Yelp app, launched to beta only two months earlier, has been pulled while the team reworks it.

What is Wistia?

Wistia is finishing the webinar product it started, one manual step at a time

Webinars dominate the recent work: branded confirmation, reminder and follow-up emails, a clearer overview page showing who holds manage access, and automatic notification of registrants when a webinar's date, time, timezone or destination changes. Alongside that runs a branding thread — video page background colors, logo and font control — and an integration thread covering SCIM provisioning through Okta and a Last Video Viewed Date field for Pardot scoring. Feed entries arrive as short teasers, so scope beyond the headline is often not readable.

The app catalogue keeps widening while the platform underneath it gets reworked

◆ Current state

Juuno is a digital signage platform that ships one consolidated release note per month, and the August 2026 edition is catalogue growth plus plumbing. Three more screen apps arrive — Clock, While You Wait and WiFi QR — alongside major Media Library work and drag-and-drop uploads directly into playlists and configuration modals. The Yelp app, launched to beta only two months earlier, has been pulled while the team reworks it.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc through 2026 is a signage vendor building out a library of small, self-contained screen apps and then repeatedly returning to fix the surfaces that host them — playlists, scenes, schedules and the media library. Commercially the direction is already set: Screen Analytics went out free in beta in March explicitly destined for a paid tier, and the Growth plan shipped in July. August adds no pricing news and instead spends its length on app configuration consistency and a long list of playback and layout fixes.

◆ Prediction

Expect the Yelp app to return from its pause and more single-purpose screen apps to follow the Clock and WiFi QR pattern. Whether Screen Analytics moves behind the Growth plan is the open question these notes do not answer.

Wistia is finishing the webinar product it started, one manual step at a time

◆ Current state

Webinars dominate the recent work: branded confirmation, reminder and follow-up emails, a clearer overview page showing who holds manage access, and automatic notification of registrants when a webinar's date, time, timezone or destination changes. Alongside that runs a branding thread — video page background colors, logo and font control — and an integration thread covering SCIM provisioning through Okta and a Last Video Viewed Date field for Pardot scoring. Feed entries arrive as short teasers, so scope beyond the headline is often not readable.

◆ Where it's heading

Wistia is converting webinars from a feature bolted onto a video host into a product that handles its own operational overhead. Each release removes something the organizer previously did by hand — rebranding an email, telling registrants a time moved, checking who owns an event. The parallel branding and identity work points the same way: fewer places where a Wistia-hosted experience looks or behaves like someone else's tool.

◆ Prediction

Expect the automatic-notification pattern to extend to other webinar state changes such as cancellation or a host swap, and the branding controls to reach the remaining unstyled surfaces around registration.
