What is Salesmsg?
Salesmsg adds call-back requests and a one-click Emergency Stop for all outbound texts.
Salesmsg's autumn releases added survey automation, Click Tracking, upgraded Reviews and an official MCP server, then turned Sherpa AI into an assistant that sends replies and builds broadcasts after approval. The November 12 update moves to calling and safety controls: callers can request a callback instead of holding, Emergency Stop pauses every outbound message at once, inboxes can require call recording, tags can be applied during calls with HubSpot sync, and a weekly recap reports AI agent performance.
What is Twist?
A French telecom-fleet management tool quietly shipping fixes — no recent activity in over a year.
This Twist is not Doist's messaging app — it's a French B2B platform for managing corporate mobile telecom fleets (lines, SIM cards, terminal inventory, operator orders). The visible window is dominated by small audit-module fixes, SIM validation tweaks, mail parser improvements and one earlier Bouygues operator API connector. The most recent shipping activity dates to September 2024.

Salesmsg
6.3COMMS
Salesmsg adds call-back requests and a one-click Emergency Stop for all outbound texts.
◆ Current state
Salesmsg's autumn releases added survey automation, Click Tracking, upgraded Reviews and an official MCP server, then turned Sherpa AI into an assistant that sends replies and builds broadcasts after approval. The November 12 update moves to calling and safety controls: callers can request a callback instead of holding, Emergency Stop pauses every outbound message at once, inboxes can require call recording, tags can be applied during calls with HubSpot sync, and a weekly recap reports AI agent performance.
◆ Where it's heading
With AI now able to send messages, Salesmsg is adding the brakes: an organization-wide stop switch and weekly reports on what its AI agents did. Calling features keep catching up with texting, with queue callbacks and recording rules.
◆ Prediction
Expect more controls over what Sherpa and AI agents may send, such as per-agent limits or approval rules, alongside further HubSpot call-data sync.
Twist
0.0COMMS
A French telecom-fleet management tool quietly shipping fixes — no recent activity in over a year.
◆ Current state
This Twist is not Doist's messaging app — it's a French B2B platform for managing corporate mobile telecom fleets (lines, SIM cards, terminal inventory, operator orders). The visible window is dominated by small audit-module fixes, SIM validation tweaks, mail parser improvements and one earlier Bouygues operator API connector. The most recent shipping activity dates to September 2024.
◆ Where it's heading
The trajectory in the captured window points to operational maintenance rather than category expansion: tightening data validation, fixing edge cases in audit reporting, supporting more telecom-data formats. The earlier Bouygues API connector hinted at a machine-to-machine ambition with the major French carriers, but follow-through (Orange, SFR) is not visible in this window. Public release cadence appears to have gone quiet.
◆ Prediction
Hard to call from the visible entries. If the Orange and SFR API connectors promised in 2024 ever shipped, they would have been the natural next chapter; their absence suggests either delayed delivery or a move to private release notes. Watch for whether public changelog cadence resumes at all.
