What is Survicate?
Survicate pivots from survey tool to AI-native research platform with Research Hub.
On May 22, 2026, Survicate replaced Insights Hub with Research Hub — a project-based workspace that connects surveys, support tickets, call transcripts, app reviews, and 15+ other feedback sources, producing stakeholder-ready AI-generated reports where every claim links back to the exact feedback it came from. A Research Assistant grounded in the project's own sources handles follow-ups; insights surface and are tracked over time. The prior months show steady survey-craft improvements: in-survey language selectors (March), custom fonts (March), response attributes (March), light/dark theme support (Feb), team-invite role bundling (Feb), and an alternative CSAT calculation (Feb).
What is Presto?
PrestoDB ships steady minor releases, but the feed surfaces little beyond version tags.
PrestoDB is shipping sequential minor releases on a regular cadence, reaching 0.298 in June 2026. The changelog feed captures little more than version numbers and links to external release notes, so the substance of each release isn't visible here. Two recent crawl attempts returned error/profile pages instead of release content.

◆ Current state
On May 22, 2026, Survicate replaced Insights Hub with Research Hub — a project-based workspace that connects surveys, support tickets, call transcripts, app reviews, and 15+ other feedback sources, producing stakeholder-ready AI-generated reports where every claim links back to the exact feedback it came from. A Research Assistant grounded in the project's own sources handles follow-ups; insights surface and are tracked over time. The prior months show steady survey-craft improvements: in-survey language selectors (March), custom fonts (March), response attributes (March), light/dark theme support (Feb), team-invite role bundling (Feb), and an alternative CSAT calculation (Feb).
◆ Where it's heading
The directional move is clear — from "survey tool" to AI-native research platform. The earlier Research Assistant work in January and February was the stepping stone; Research Hub is the destination, and the rebrand from Insights Hub signals the team treating this as a category move, not a feature add. Survey-builder work continues but now reads as table-stakes maintenance underneath the new platform layer.
◆ Prediction
Expect Research Hub to grow new source integrations (sales-call platforms, support systems beyond ticket text) and pre-built templates for common B2B-SaaS research patterns — churn analysis, win/loss, NPS driver mining. Deeper report sharing and distribution would put Survicate directly in Dovetail and Sprig's path.

2.5INFRA · APISANALYTICS
PrestoDB ships steady minor releases, but the feed surfaces little beyond version tags.
◆ Current state
PrestoDB is shipping sequential minor releases on a regular cadence, reaching 0.298 in June 2026. The changelog feed captures little more than version numbers and links to external release notes, so the substance of each release isn't visible here. Two recent crawl attempts returned error/profile pages instead of release content.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is steady maintenance: numbered releases every one to two months with no directional shifts visible in the feed itself. Crawl reliability is the more actionable signal here — error-page captures mean the feed is degrading, not the product. Readers needing release substance still have to follow through to prestodb.io.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next sequential minor release (0.299) on a similar cadence; nothing in these entries points to a larger version jump or a directional change.
