Corteza
Corteza's 2026.9 release candidates keep landing daily, each fixing one MySQL or RBAC edge.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ReachInbox and Twenty — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
ReachInbox's tracked feed is cold-email SEO content, not a release log.
SparkPulse is crawling ReachInbox's marketing blog — cold-email templates, subject-line examples, deliverability and inbox-placement how-tos, and B2B outbound playbooks. These are educational/SEO posts aimed at outbound sales teams, not product release notes. No shipping signal appears in the current window.
Twenty 2.48 runs agent conversations inside Slack threads and lets API keys export records.
Twenty ships a minor version roughly weekly with the SDK and CLI tagged in lockstep. 2.48 continues one agent conversation per Slack thread, lets the AI chat create, update and delete agents, caps an application's credits, supports more than two billing plans and imports Teams call transcripts. It also verifies IMAP and SMTP certificates by default and stops a custom AI provider form from silently overriding built-in OpenAI. 2.47 had already rewritten filter errors so AI agents can correct themselves.

These are educational/SEO posts aimed at outbound sales teams, not product release notes. No shipping signal appears in the current window.
The content clusters tightly around email deliverability and outbound technique (TLS encryption, inbox placement, mail-server setup), consistent with ReachInbox's cold-email-automation positioning, but it documents the problem space rather than product changes. Velocity here reflects blog output, not release cadence.
Expect continued deliverability and outbound-playbook content. A genuine product trajectory won't surface until the feed is pointed at a changelog rather than the blog.

Agents are becoming the organising idea of the product: they now live in Slack threads, are managed from the AI chat, and get API errors written for them. The app platform is growing in parallel, with a marketplace consent screen, install stats, usage caps and a generate-client CLI, which points to third-party apps as the second pillar. Billing changes suggest the pricing ladder is about to widen.
Expect 2.49 to finish the Campaigns work flagged as part 1 of 2 and to extend agent reach to further chat or meeting sources; new billing tiers are likely but their shape isn't visible.
