What is Range?

Range's tracked feed is its blog, and it went quiet in early 2023

What SparkPulse is tracking for Range is the company blog, not a product changelog. The most recent posts are team-management advice — goal-setting, meeting rituals, performance-review phrasing — and they stop dead in January 2023. No product release, pricing, or capability signal appears anywhere in the window.

What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds math, personal access tokens and nav automations; Postgres 17 now required.

Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, notifications, annotations, a glossary, draft recovery and multi-replica git sync. The newest beta adds inline KaTeX/MathJax math, personal access tokens, navigation-menu automations and search suggestions, and raises the minimum database to PostgreSQL 17.

Range's tracked feed is its blog, and it went quiet in early 2023

◆ Current state

What SparkPulse is tracking for Range is the company blog, not a product changelog. The most recent posts are team-management advice — goal-setting, meeting rituals, performance-review phrasing — and they stop dead in January 2023. No product release, pricing, or capability signal appears anywhere in the window.

◆ Where it's heading

On this feed alone, Range looks dormant: the content engine that produced weekly async-work advice through 2022 simply stopped. Whether the product is still shipping is invisible here because the source we track no longer updates. The arc is a flatline, not a decline we can characterize.

◆ Prediction

Nothing in these entries supports a confident prediction about Range's next move; the feed has not updated in over three years. The actionable signal is about our tracking, not the product — we likely need a different source to see whether Range is still active.

Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds math, personal access tokens and nav automations; Postgres 17 now required.

◆ Current state

Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, notifications, annotations, a glossary, draft recovery and multi-replica git sync. The newest beta adds inline KaTeX/MathJax math, personal access tokens, navigation-menu automations and search suggestions, and raises the minimum database to PostgreSQL 17.

◆ Where it's heading

Headline features are in place, and recent betas fill out editor ergonomics, identity and API plumbing, and operational safety rather than adding new editors. Personal access tokens and API keys bound to page rules extend the access model to automation clients, and the Postgres 17 floor shows the team is still willing to set hard infrastructure requirements before 3.0 locks.

◆ Prediction

More betas pairing editor and admin polish with API, multi-node and v2-import fixes are the likely next step. The entries still give no date for 3.0 dropping its beta label.
