Lime Connect is turning its AI agent into the default first responder.
Lime Connect ships weekly releases that mostly extend Connect AI, its AI agent and operator copilot. Recent changes show AI involvement per conversation, let operators rate AI actions, and hand email threads back to the AI agent. A Voice Agents alpha in 18 languages, a backup move to French hosting, and tests of European-hosted models mark a push on EU data residency.
NetHunt CRM ships workflow, integration, and automation depth as it builds toward a more self-contained sales OS.
NetHunt CRM, a Gmail-native CRM, has been shipping steadily across automation, integration, and data quality work. Recent releases add Aircall integration for call logging, statistical email tracking fields, a workflow engine redesign with retry/cancel/history capabilities, and auto-creation of contacts from Gmail compose and social channels. The changelog entries lack timestamps, making cadence difficult to assess, but the breadth of changes suggests a sustained shipping pace.

The product is moving from a messaging inbox with a bot toward an AI-first service desk where humans supervise and rate agent actions. Channel work, mainly WhatsApp templates and usernames, keeps pace, while UCP support hints at commerce actions inside conversations. Data residency is becoming part of the pitch.
Voice Agents will likely widen beyond the enterprise alpha, and European-hosted models could become a selectable option. Expect more AI oversight metrics on dashboards.
NetHunt CRM, a Gmail-native CRM, has been shipping steadily across automation, integration, and data quality work. Recent releases add Aircall integration for call logging, statistical email tracking fields, a workflow engine redesign with retry/cancel/history capabilities, and auto-creation of contacts from Gmail compose and social channels. The changelog entries lack timestamps, making cadence difficult to assess, but the breadth of changes suggests a sustained shipping pace.
NetHunt is expanding outward from Gmail toward a broader sales operations platform: telephony integration (Aircall, Ringostat, Binotel), messenger support, improved webforms, and enhanced automations. The workflow redesign—which adds retry logic, cancellation controls, and run history—indicates the product is maturing its automation engine for teams running complex multi-step sales processes.
More telephony and communication integrations are likely given the pattern. The automation redesign suggests upcoming improvements to trigger logic or condition branching. Email deliverability tooling (custom SMTP, manual send delays) points toward continued investment in outreach capabilities.
