Corteza
Corteza's 2026.9 release candidates keep landing daily, each fixing one MySQL or RBAC edge.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of NetHunt CRM and Twenty — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
NetHunt's feed is evaluation-stage SEO content, with no product releases visible in it.
NetHunt publishes to a marketing blog rather than a changelog, and the last ten posts are all top-of-funnel search content: CRM buying guides, lead-generation listicles, migration checklists and sales-metrics how-tos. Nothing in the window announces or dates a product change. Where NetHunt's own capabilities do appear — segmentation, automation, ROI tracking — they are described as already shipped.
Twenty 2.48 runs agent conversations inside Slack threads and lets API keys export records.
Twenty ships a minor version roughly weekly with the SDK and CLI tagged in lockstep. 2.48 continues one agent conversation per Slack thread, lets the AI chat create, update and delete agents, caps an application's credits, supports more than two billing plans and imports Teams call transcripts. It also verifies IMAP and SMTP certificates by default and stops a custom AI provider form from silently overriding built-in OpenAI. 2.47 had already rewritten filter errors so AI agents can correct themselves.

Cadence holds at roughly two posts a week and the topic mix has not moved: evaluation-stage keywords aimed at buyers comparing CRMs, plus displacement content targeting teams already unhappy with an incumbent. The newest post, a plain explainer on why a business needs a CRM, sits at the widest end of that funnel. Read as a signal about the product, this feed reports nothing.
Expect the same weekly buying-guide and listicle rotation to continue. Product movement will not be visible here unless NetHunt starts publishing a separate release feed — these entries give no basis for calling what is being built.

Agents are becoming the organising idea of the product: they now live in Slack threads, are managed from the AI chat, and get API errors written for them. The app platform is growing in parallel, with a marketplace consent screen, install stats, usage caps and a generate-client CLI, which points to third-party apps as the second pillar. Billing changes suggest the pricing ladder is about to widen.
Expect 2.49 to finish the Campaigns work flagged as part 1 of 2 and to extend agent reach to further chat or meeting sources; new billing tiers are likely but their shape isn't visible.
