SureMembers vs Cody: at a glance
What is SureMembers?
SureMembers splits into two plugins, then adds analytics and MCP-based AI management.

SureMembers vs Cody: editorial side-by-side
SureMembers
5.0E-COMM
SureMembers splits into two plugins, then adds analytics and MCP-based AI management.
◆ Current state
SureMembers spent mid-2026 rebuilding: a 1.0.0/Pro 3.0.0 reset split it into separate Core and Pro plugins, followed by a run of releases adding a native Analytics tab plus reliability fixes. Analytics is the clear throughline across the three most recent releases.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is layering visibility (analytics) and automation (WordPress Abilities plus MCP) onto a freshly re-architected base. Direction points toward AI-assisted membership operations rather than access control alone.
◆ Prediction
Expect the Analytics surface to deepen and MCP/Abilities coverage to reach more membership actions, given two consecutive releases building on each.
Cody
5.0E-COMM
Cody grinds through ecommerce correctness fixes and hardens Google Pay against fraud
◆ Current state
Cody is a hosted ecommerce platform shipping a dense stream of fixes and small features across its promotions engine (Promotions v2), page builder (PageBuilder v3), category filters, and checkout. Recent work is heavily correctness-focused, with a notable Google Pay fraud-protection upgrade that adds proper 3D Secure verification.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is a platform stabilizing two big in-flight rewrites — Promotions v2 and PageBuilder v3 — while polishing storefront conversion details (cart visibility, filter accuracy, checkout error handling). Security is getting real attention, not just features.
◆ Prediction
Expect Promotions v2 and PageBuilder v3 to keep accreting fixes and small usability wins as they mature toward being the defaults, plus continued payment-security tightening.
