What is Postiz?
After six weeks of nothing but security patches, Postiz ships reliability work on the posting path itself.
Postiz is an open-source, self-hostable social media scheduler. The visible record since March is dominated by urgent security releases — one PSA advisory in June, two GHSA advisories in March, each recommending immediate upgrade — with a single new network (MeWe) as the only integration work in that span. The August release breaks the pattern: provider media uploads now stream rather than buffering whole files in memory, a pending-post workflow guards against duplicate posts, and the MCP server got stability and OAuth fixes.
What is Saleshandy?
Saleshandy lets users exclude contacts they already own from Lead Finder searches.
Saleshandy's spring releases built out the outreach stack: a native dialer, a Chrome click-to-call extension, managed email infrastructure and in-app CRM workflows. Since August the work has moved to Lead Finder data quality and spend efficiency: monthly data refreshes, contact reveals about 8x faster, enrollment pacing for sequences and UCC complaint handling for Indian numbers. The newest release lets users upload an existing prospect list and exclude those contacts from searches, so reveal credits aren't spent on leads they already have.

After six weeks of nothing but security patches, Postiz ships reliability work on the posting path itself.
◆ Current state
Postiz is an open-source, self-hostable social media scheduler. The visible record since March is dominated by urgent security releases — one PSA advisory in June, two GHSA advisories in March, each recommending immediate upgrade — with a single new network (MeWe) as the only integration work in that span. The August release breaks the pattern: provider media uploads now stream rather than buffering whole files in memory, a pending-post workflow guards against duplicate posts, and the MCP server got stability and OAuth fixes.
◆ Where it's heading
The project is working on the parts that fail at scale rather than the parts that demo well. Streaming uploads is a worker-memory fix for large media, and duplicate-post protection addresses the failure mode that actually costs a scheduling tool its users' trust. That an MCP server exists and is being maintained puts Postiz on the agent-accessible path, but this release treats it as infrastructure to harden, not a surface to expand. The six-week gap between releases suggests a small maintainer group prioritizing correctness over cadence.
◆ Prediction
Given that MCP OAuth is being fixed rather than built out, the next visible step is likely more provider integrations or a stable MCP release once the auth path settles. The security-release cadence makes another advisory-driven patch equally plausible.
Saleshandy
5.0MARKETING
Saleshandy lets users exclude contacts they already own from Lead Finder searches.
◆ Current state
Saleshandy's spring releases built out the outreach stack: a native dialer, a Chrome click-to-call extension, managed email infrastructure and in-app CRM workflows. Since August the work has moved to Lead Finder data quality and spend efficiency: monthly data refreshes, contact reveals about 8x faster, enrollment pacing for sequences and UCC complaint handling for Indian numbers. The newest release lets users upload an existing prospect list and exclude those contacts from searches, so reveal credits aren't spent on leads they already have.
◆ Where it's heading
With the major channel additions done, the product is consolidating around Lead Finder as a credit-metered database: fresher data, faster lookups and now suppression lists that cut wasted reveals. Deliverability and compliance tooling run alongside, keeping numbers and domains usable.
◆ Prediction
Expect the October Lead Finder refresh with new volume figures, and likely suppression to extend beyond uploaded CSVs to CRM-synced contacts given the existing CRM workflows. The entries don't show that link yet.
