LiveAgent
LiveAgent is bolting an AI-agent and MCP layer onto a mature help desk while grinding down a security backlog.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Sleekplan and Tiledesk — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Sleekplan bets its relaunch on feedback that triages itself
After a quiet stretch through most of 2025, Sleekplan re-accelerated with a June rebuild — Sleekplan 2.0 in beta — pairing a ground-up admin app with an AI layer meant to manage feedback automatically. Alongside it, a rebuilt, fully configurable Impact Score replaces the old black-box prioritization.
Tiledesk's feed is agentic-AI thought leadership, not release notes
The tracked feed is Tiledesk's blog, heavy on agentic-AI explainers — MCP-driven agents, self-learning support, and hybrid-search RAG. Entries read as marketing and architecture write-ups, not changelog releases, so the shipped-product state isn't directly observable. Tiledesk positions as an open-source, AI-agent customer-support platform.

Alongside it, a rebuilt, fully configurable Impact Score replaces the old black-box prioritization.
The direction is autonomous feedback handling: less manual triage, more AI-driven scoring, routing, and loop-closing, with integrations like Linear pushing items straight into engineering workflows. Making the Impact Score transparent and configurable signals Sleekplan knows teams won't trust automation they can't audit.
Expect Sleekplan 2.0 to move from beta to general availability with the AI layer expanded, plus more two-way integrations that push scored feedback directly into delivery tools.

Recent posts push an ecommerce AI sales advisor and MCP-based agents that take actions, suggesting Tiledesk is marketing toward agents that act rather than only answer. Publishing is irregular — a July post follows a months-long gap — so this reads as sporadic content, not a steady release cadence.
The messaging points toward more agentic, action-oriented and ecommerce use cases, but the actual product roadmap isn't visible until a real changelog feed replaces the blog source.
