What is NocoBase?
NocoBase is building an AI employee layer while running its 2.2 and 3.0 lines in parallel.
NocoBase is shipping two trains at once: v2.2.0 is at beta.17 and v3.0.0 is at alpha.8, with features crossing between them. The work concentrates in three areas — AI employees that draw skills from the plugin system, a Portal manager that defines application entry points, and an AI knowledge base backed by configurable vector databases. Cadence on the alpha line is close to daily.
What is Uplisting?
Vacation rental PMS unifies guest communication and reopens its partner API, then goes quiet for four months.
Uplisting is a short-term rental property management platform with deep Airbnb integration. Late 2025 and early 2026 ran three coordinated tracks: a unified guest inbox spanning OTA, SMS, and email; financial reporting overhauls (Client Statements 2.0 in November after the June revamp); and Airbnb-specific automation (alterations, New Listing Promotion, Gap Night Settings). The mobile app was fully rebuilt in January.

NocoBase is building an AI employee layer while running its 2.2 and 3.0 lines in parallel.
◆ Current state
NocoBase is shipping two trains at once: v2.2.0 is at beta.17 and v3.0.0 is at alpha.8, with features crossing between them. The work concentrates in three areas — AI employees that draw skills from the plugin system, a Portal manager that defines application entry points, and an AI knowledge base backed by configurable vector databases. Cadence on the alpha line is close to daily.
◆ Where it's heading
The plugin system is becoming the extension mechanism for agents, not just for the no-code builder: AI employee skills are built from plugins, and a plugin development guide for defining tools, skills and built-in employees shipped alongside them. Portals are turning into first-class application surfaces with their own access checks, AI conversations, unread counts and backup support. Setup that started as CLI-only — LLM services, vector databases — keeps acquiring UI navigation a release or two later.
◆ Prediction
Expect the AI employee skill system and vector database management to keep filling in, since CLI-driven setup already has UI navigation and model selection guidance just landed. Features appearing first on the 3.0 alpha line and then reaching the 2.2 betas is now the established pattern, so the next 2.2 beta is the place to watch for what 3.0 tested.
Vacation rental PMS unifies guest communication and reopens its partner API, then goes quiet for four months.
◆ Current state
Uplisting is a short-term rental property management platform with deep Airbnb integration. Late 2025 and early 2026 ran three coordinated tracks: a unified guest inbox spanning OTA, SMS, and email; financial reporting overhauls (Client Statements 2.0 in November after the June revamp); and Airbnb-specific automation (alterations, New Listing Promotion, Gap Night Settings). The mobile app was fully rebuilt in January.
◆ Where it's heading
The unified-inbox theme is the strongest signal — SMS in August, email in October, the rebuilt mobile app picking it up in January. The Custom Booking Attributes release in November ('first major Public API improvement in years') suggests Uplisting is reopening the partner integration surface. There has been no public release since January 13 — four months of silence is the most notable trajectory feature right now.
◆ Prediction
Expect Uplisting's next release to cover either AI-assisted guest messaging on top of the unified inbox, the next wave of API endpoints for partners, or Vrbo-side equivalents of the deep Airbnb-integration features. The four-month gap may indicate a major release in preparation.
