Snov.io vs Twenty: at a glance
What is Snov.io?
Snov.io compounds its data depth and outreach automation one monthly drop at a time.
Snov.io ships on a steady monthly-roundup cadence, widening two moats in parallel: enrichment-data volume and multichannel outreach automation. Recent months added deliverability checks, in-app LinkedIn search and automation, Google-powered mailboxes, and AI persona and email tooling. The June drop leans on new enrichment features and API improvements, consistent with a platform selling both data depth and automation.
What is Twenty?
Twenty is building a marketplace: outside developers can now claim and submit their own apps.
Releases ship under two tags, twenty/ and sdk/, and the same change frequently appears twice. The substance in this window is the application platform. sdk 2.23.0 lets a non-admin developer claim an unclaimed published npm app from the Developer tab via GitHub OAuth against npm provenance and submit it for marketplace review, serves SDK core and metadata modules from content-addressed URLs so browsers can cache them indefinitely, and adds KANBAN_WIDGET and CALENDAR_WIDGET view types. v2.25.0 adds an application:install command that installs an app across provisioned workspaces and skips those that already have it. The rest is upkeep — a ClickHouse insert-timeout cap for pageview events, a billing exemption for logic-function executions, and a fix for campaign view column positions that had been failing workspace activation.
Snov.io vs Twenty: editorial side-by-side
Snov.io
5.0CRM
Snov.io compounds its data depth and outreach automation one monthly drop at a time.
◆ Current state
Snov.io ships on a steady monthly-roundup cadence, widening two moats in parallel: enrichment-data volume and multichannel outreach automation. Recent months added deliverability checks, in-app LinkedIn search and automation, Google-powered mailboxes, and AI persona and email tooling. The June drop leans on new enrichment features and API improvements, consistent with a platform selling both data depth and automation.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is a self-contained outreach stack, prospect data, LinkedIn, email deliverability, and AI personalization under one roof, that reduces reliance on external tools while still integrating with partners like Clay. The ongoing API investment points toward more programmatic and team or enterprise use. Momentum is incremental and consistent rather than punctuated by pivots.
◆ Prediction
Expect another monthly bundle extending enrichment coverage and the API surface, with continued hardening of LinkedIn automation and deliverability. Whether the enrichment and API work coalesces into a single named launch, versus staying a steady stream of additions, is the open question these roundups leave.
Twenty
6.3CRM
Twenty is building a marketplace: outside developers can now claim and submit their own apps.
◆ Current state
Releases ship under two tags, twenty/ and sdk/, and the same change frequently appears twice. The substance in this window is the application platform. sdk 2.23.0 lets a non-admin developer claim an unclaimed published npm app from the Developer tab via GitHub OAuth against npm provenance and submit it for marketplace review, serves SDK core and metadata modules from content-addressed URLs so browsers can cache them indefinitely, and adds KANBAN_WIDGET and CALENDAR_WIDGET view types. v2.25.0 adds an application:install command that installs an app across provisioned workspaces and skips those that already have it. The rest is upkeep — a ClickHouse insert-timeout cap for pageview events, a billing exemption for logic-function executions, and a fix for campaign view column positions that had been failing workspace activation.
◆ Where it's heading
Twenty is assembling the machinery a marketplace needs before the marketplace itself: verified app authorship, a review submission path, fleet-wide install and upgrade commands, per-app billing exemptions, and versioned SDK delivery. CRM features are nearly absent from this window — the work is platform work. Release-note quality varies from a full engineering writeup to a truncated commit subject, so the tags are a poor guide to what actually changed in any given version.
◆ Prediction
The pieces implied but missing are the marketplace's public face — listing, discovery and install from inside the product — plus GA for the app-registration flow these commands and billing rules exist to support. Timing isn't inferable from these notes.
