Prowler 5.48 stops waiting for the next scan: it watches AWS live and can fix what breaks.
Prowler ships a minor release every one to two weeks. 5.48.0 adds Prowler Realtime for AWS in Prowler Cloud: it reads CloudTrail events as they happen, runs a targeted check on the touched resource and then alerts, opens a Terraform pull request or fixes the resource directly, depending on each account's policy. 5.47 had reduced provider setup to one step and made Issues lead with a verdict and an attack path.
ScreenshotOne grinds out reliability and quietly tailors output for AI workflows
ScreenshotOne ships a steady stream of small, focused improvements to its rendering API — cache reliability, full-page stitching fixes, banner blocking, and admin and notification conveniences. The one strategic thread is tooling aimed at AI analysis, like splitting full-page captures into slices.

Prowler is moving from a periodic scanner toward a response system: partial re-scans in 5.44, exploitability verdicts in 5.46-5.47, and now event-driven detection with reversible auto-remediation. The paid cloud tier carries most of this, with the open scanner feeding it.
Expect Realtime to extend to Azure or GCP event feeds and more checks to gain automatic fixes.
ScreenshotOne ships a steady stream of small, focused improvements to its rendering API — cache reliability, full-page stitching fixes, banner blocking, and admin and notification conveniences. The one strategic thread is tooling aimed at AI analysis, like splitting full-page captures into slices.
The product is maturing as dependable infrastructure rather than chasing big features, with incremental quality and rendering-fidelity work dominating. A light but recurring nod to AI use cases — slicing for analysis, agent integrations — hints at where new demand is coming from.
Expect continued reliability and rendering-fidelity fixes plus more features framed around feeding screenshots into AI pipelines; nothing in the recent cadence suggests a larger directional change.
