PrestaShop
PrestaShop 9.2 is out, with One Page Checkout, Ask AI and Extra Properties in stable.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Lodgify and Spryker — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Since its May relaunch, Lodgify's changelog has logged one thing: a compliance app.
The only post-relaunch entry is HostReady, a marketplace app published on September 16 that shows US hosts the licensing, zoning and tax requirements for each property. Before the May brand and pricing relaunch, the feed covered Airbnb and Vrbo operator tooling, including an Airbnb Quality Dashboard, automatic reviews and granular Vrbo sync. Marketplace listings have been the feed's steadiest entry type since late 2025.
Spryker takes Recurring Orders GA and builds an AI commerce layer into its B2B stack.
Release 202608.0 makes Recurring Orders generally available, letting buyers fix an upcoming order, change budgets and resolve exceptions without cancelling a schedule. It also adds Workflows in early access, plus storefront design system updates and an AI Dev SDK setup wizard. New documentation covers AI Commerce: a Storefront Assistant answering only from the shop catalog, a Back Office Assistant with four agents, and per-feature choice of OpenAI, AWS Bedrock or Anthropic.

Third-party apps are filling more of the visible roadmap: analytics from Host IQ, tours through GetYourGuide, insurance from Assur-Lodge and now compliance from HostReady. Each one handles a job Lodgify does not build itself. The plan and pricing detail expected after the May relaunch has not appeared in this feed.
More marketplace listings are the safest expectation, since each post invites requests for further apps. Whether first-party product updates return to the changelog is unclear from these entries.

Spryker is pairing B2B procurement depth with agent features. Recurring Orders and budget controls keep buyers inside governed purchasing, while Back Office agents can read orders and create or update discounts. Letting each AI feature choose its own provider keeps cost and model decisions with the customer.
Workflows and the AI Dev SDK wizard are both early access, so they are the likeliest candidates for general availability in a coming release. The entries do not say when.
