What is Streak?

Streak is wiring AI into every corner of the CRM — and now lets LLMs write to the pipeline

Streak's changelog is dominated by AI features layered onto its Gmail-native CRM: deal summaries and Q&A in the sidebar, AI citations for traceability, mobile AI Q&A, and an MCP server that now lets LLMs create and update records, not just read them. Pipeline-management craft (combined stage/column manager, rebuilt saved-view editor) and a steady stream of fixes run underneath. The feed shows occasional duplicate entries for the same feature on adjacent dates.

What is Twenty?

Twenty is turning its open-source CRM into an AI-native, app-extensible platform.

Twenty is an open-source CRM shipping on a weekly cadence — five tagged releases (v2.15 through v2.19) in about three weeks. The work clusters into three arcs: AI chat and agent tooling that operates on workflows and data, a third-party app SDK with a partner marketplace, and email/calendar sync via webhook push. A credit-and-entitlement billing model is being wired through the product in parallel.

Streak is wiring AI into every corner of the CRM — and now lets LLMs write to the pipeline

◆ Current state

Streak's changelog is dominated by AI features layered onto its Gmail-native CRM: deal summaries and Q&A in the sidebar, AI citations for traceability, mobile AI Q&A, and an MCP server that now lets LLMs create and update records, not just read them. Pipeline-management craft (combined stage/column manager, rebuilt saved-view editor) and a steady stream of fixes run underneath. The feed shows occasional duplicate entries for the same feature on adjacent dates.

◆ Where it's heading

The clear direction is making the CRM operable by AI: read access matured first (summaries, Q&A, web research), and the MCP server now closes the loop with write capability so assistants can move deals and create contacts. Citations signal attention to trust as AI outputs drive more decisions. Streak is betting the CRM becomes something you increasingly manage through an assistant rather than a UI.

◆ Prediction

Expect deeper agent write-paths (more record types and automation triggers callable from LLMs) and continued AI-trust features like citations, with the Gmail sidebar remaining the primary surface.

T6.3

Twenty is turning its open-source CRM into an AI-native, app-extensible platform.

◆ Current state

Twenty is an open-source CRM shipping on a weekly cadence — five tagged releases (v2.15 through v2.19) in about three weeks. The work clusters into three arcs: AI chat and agent tooling that operates on workflows and data, a third-party app SDK with a partner marketplace, and email/calendar sync via webhook push. A credit-and-entitlement billing model is being wired through the product in parallel.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is a programmable CRM platform where third-party apps are first-class, AI agents act on records and workflows, and cloud usage is metered by credits while self-host relies on an enterprise license. Recent releases have moved this from scaffolding toward production hardening — declarative app metadata sync, row-level security on API and application principals, and a rebuilt AI streaming pipeline. The open-core split is sharpening: capability stays open, cloud consumption and enterprise entitlements become the paid surface.

◆ Prediction

Expect the app SDK to keep maturing toward a stable marketplace GA and more product surfaces to move behind credit metering, following the email-metering pattern just shipped. The AI agent toolset should continue expanding from workflow inspection toward more write/act capabilities.
