Less Annoying CRM keeps shipping the small stuff users have asked for, and one big workflow piece.
LACRM is in steady customer-driven iteration mode — task customization, rich text fields, undo on destructive actions, twelve small requested features in a single release. The standout from the past six months is automations, which finally gives the product a workflow primitive comparable to higher-end CRMs without abandoning its simplicity-first positioning.
NetHunt's feed is a CRM-comparison SEO machine, not a product changelog.
Every recent entry is comparison and scoring content — 'best CRM for X' listicles, scoring methodologies, and competitor teardowns (Zoho, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Google Workspace). NetHunt is publishing to capture high-intent CRM search traffic, often positioning itself against rivals. None of it reflects a product release or feature change.
LACRM is in steady customer-driven iteration mode — task customization, rich text fields, undo on destructive actions, twelve small requested features in a single release. The standout from the past six months is automations, which finally gives the product a workflow primitive comparable to higher-end CRMs without abandoning its simplicity-first positioning.
The product is broadening from contact management into light workflow tooling — automations, update forms, deeper Zapier hooks — while continuing to invest in the unglamorous quality-of-life work (relative date filters, undo merge, group search). It is positioning against feature-rich competitors by being the CRM that respects the user's time, not by matching feature surface area.
Expect automations to grow more triggers and conditions over the next quarter, especially around forms and pipeline movement, since the foundation just landed and Zapier integration coverage is being filled in. The next user-visible bet is likely a reporting or dashboard improvement, since visibility hasn't moved while the workflow surface has.

NetHunt is publishing to capture high-intent CRM search traffic, often positioning itself against rivals. None of it reflects a product release or feature change.
The visible cadence is competitive content marketing aimed at the consideration stage, leaning on transparent scoring rubrics to build authority. The actual product roadmap isn't observable from this feed — it tracks editorial SEO output, not shipping.
Expect more 'alternatives' comparisons and scoring-methodology posts targeting competitor brand searches; product direction is not predictable from these entries.
