A side-by-side editorial comparison of NocoBase and Super Productivity — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
NocoBase vs Super Productivity: at a glance
What is NocoBase?
NocoBase's v3 beta lets apps ship their own CLI, separate from Agents.
NocoBase ships several betas a day across v2.3 and v3. After multi-app projects on November 12, the two November 13 v3 betas let applications distribute their CLI independently of Agents, add a public installer and streamed uploads, show each coding tool's concurrency limit and current runs in the agent runtime list and turn on web search for DeepSeek models. They also speed up IMAP sync and make stalled release downloads time out.
What is Super Productivity?
Super Productivity's feed shows a docs commit, not a release, since August.
The last tagged release is v18.21.2 in late August, which repaired legacy data migration and sync privacy after the 18.21 device-list and live-presence work. The newest entry is a branch tag on a docs commit recording known capture gaps for repeat tasks and time blocks, not a release.

NocoBase's v3 beta lets apps ship their own CLI, separate from Agents.
◆ Current state
NocoBase ships several betas a day across v2.3 and v3. After multi-app projects on November 12, the two November 13 v3 betas let applications distribute their CLI independently of Agents, add a public installer and streamed uploads, show each coding tool's concurrency limit and current runs in the agent runtime list and turn on web search for DeepSeek models. They also speed up IMAP sync and make stalled release downloads time out.
◆ Where it's heading
v3 is assembling a toolchain around apps built by coding agents: app hosts, release management, CLIs and agent runners, each published as its own package. Many daily betas mean the parts are still moving fast.
◆ Prediction
Expect release management and the agent runtime list to keep changing in daily betas before any v3 release candidate appears.
Super Productivity's feed shows a docs commit, not a release, since August.
◆ Current state
The last tagged release is v18.21.2 in late August, which repaired legacy data migration and sync privacy after the 18.21 device-list and live-presence work. The newest entry is a branch tag on a docs commit recording known capture gaps for repeat tasks and time blocks, not a release.
◆ Where it's heading
The 18.x line built SuperSync into an account surface with device management and encrypted-only uploads, then paused for repair. The docs commit suggests work on task capture is underway, but nothing has shipped in the feed since.
◆ Prediction
The next release likely addresses repeat-task and time-block capture, given the recorded gaps; the feed shows no date.
