Wakapi
A critical auth bypass lands in the middle of Wakapi's slow identity rebuild.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Plane and Scoro — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Plane ships a fortnightly digest, and the AI layer is where the real work is going.
Plane releases on a strict twice-monthly cadence, each entry a bundle rather than a single feature. The current window covers Pages becoming a document surface (toggle blocks, embedded widgets, nested-page zip export), Intake getting dashboard visibility, and Automations extending to modules, milestones, and releases. Underneath, Plane AI has been accumulating capability faster than any other area — Skills, an AI Block in Pages, live PQL results in chat, open-weight model options.
Scoro is making itself agent-readable: AI assistant for everyone, MCP server, app platform.
Three releases in close succession define where Scoro is investing: an MCP server for AI-powered cross-app workflows, the ELI AI assistant rolled out to all users, and a New Apps by Scoro layer announced in May 2026. The fundamentals — subtasks, role assignment on tasks, time-and-cost-to-invoice allocation, financial reports — are still shipping in parallel.

The tracker is being rebuilt around two things it did not start as: a wiki with executable blocks, and a workspace where agent behaviour is authored and stored. Skills was the turn — instructions saved once and reused rather than re-typed — and the Pages work since has been about making the document a place where that output lands. The structural cleanups run alongside: epics folded into the work item type system, permissions redesigned into two layers, automations widened to more object types. It is consolidation, not sprawl.
The next digests likely extend Automations toward AI-triggered actions, since Skills, PQL, and rule-based automation now exist as separate pieces that obviously compose. The entries are digest summaries linking off-site, so per-feature depth is not readable from the feed.

Scoro is positioning itself to be operated by both humans and agents over the same data model. MCP plus a public ELI assistant plus an apps layer is a deliberate platform move, not feature scatter. The classic project-management roadmap (subtasks, time tracking, financial reporting) continues underneath as table stakes.
Expect deeper integrations between ELI and the new Apps layer next, plus more granular MCP tool surfaces (timesheet, invoicing, quoting). A marketplace or partner-built apps story is the obvious follow-on if New Apps by Scoro is going to mean anything beyond first-party.
