What is Nuclino?

Nuclino's October drop turns to mobile and content blocks after three MCP-focused releases.

Nuclino ships a feature roundup roughly every quarter. The October 26 release covers mobile app improvements, more highlight colors and audio blocks; the feed carries only the title, so details aren't visible. The three releases before it, January through September, each extended its MCP server and API access for AI assistants.

What is Skedda?

Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.

Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.

Nuclino vs Skedda: editorial side-by-side

N

COLLAB
2.5

Nuclino's October drop turns to mobile and content blocks after three MCP-focused releases.

◆ Current state

Nuclino ships a feature roundup roughly every quarter. The October 26 release covers mobile app improvements, more highlight colors and audio blocks; the feed carries only the title, so details aren't visible. The three releases before it, January through September, each extended its MCP server and API access for AI assistants.

◆ Where it's heading

After a year where MCP access was the recurring thread, the latest drop goes back to editor and mobile basics. Nuclino looks to alternate between the AI-assistant access layer and core editing features rather than going all-in on either.

◆ Prediction

The quarterly rhythm points to the next roundup around late January 2027. Whether MCP returns as a headline item there is unclear from these entries.

Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.

◆ Current state

Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.

◆ Where it's heading

Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.

◆ Prediction

Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
