What is Kolleno?
Kolleno's monthly updates add DSO tracking, accessibility and e-signature forms to its AR suite.
Kolleno publishes a monthly roundup whose titles carry the news and whose bodies repeat a standing intro. October's two updates covered accessibility, a sharper Task Manager and a DSO view, then controls over AI Task Manager notes, custom forms with DocuSign e-signature and tighter security. August expanded Salesforce sync.
What is Purchasely?
Purchasely puts its Management API in the terminal and in AI coding agents
Purchasely is an SDK and console for in-app subscriptions and paywalls. Version 6.2 in October let apps send their own business events to trigger campaigns and linked every purchase to the paywall, placement and test that drove it. On November 5 it released a CLI in beta that exposes every Management API operation as a command, shows app metrics in the terminal, and installs a Purchasely plugin into AI coding agents, with dry runs, plan-then-apply and a read-only mode for safe writes.

Kolleno
2.5FINANCE
Kolleno's monthly updates add DSO tracking, accessibility and e-signature forms to its AR suite.
◆ Current state
Kolleno publishes a monthly roundup whose titles carry the news and whose bodies repeat a standing intro. October's two updates covered accessibility, a sharper Task Manager and a DSO view, then controls over AI Task Manager notes, custom forms with DocuSign e-signature and tighter security. August expanded Salesforce sync.
◆ Where it's heading
The product keeps pulling collections work into one place: tasks, customer queries, reconciliation, reporting and CRM sync. AI appears inside those workflows rather than as a separate product. The June Task Manager rebuild still anchors most of what has followed.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Task Manager refinements and further CRM or ERP sync work in the next digests. The thin release bodies make specific features hard to predict.

6.3FINANCE
Purchasely puts its Management API in the terminal and in AI coding agents
◆ Current state
Purchasely is an SDK and console for in-app subscriptions and paywalls. Version 6.2 in October let apps send their own business events to trigger campaigns and linked every purchase to the paywall, placement and test that drove it. On November 5 it released a CLI in beta that exposes every Management API operation as a command, shows app metrics in the terminal, and installs a Purchasely plugin into AI coding agents, with dry runs, plan-then-apply and a read-only mode for safe writes.
◆ Where it's heading
The SDK releases have steadily moved control of paywalls and campaigns out of app code and into the Console. The CLI moves it again, into scripts, CI and coding agents, with guardrails designed for automated writes.
◆ Prediction
The CLI needs Management API access enabled by Purchasely staff, so the next likely step is broader self-serve access, or more agent-facing tooling built on the same API.
