Corteza
Corteza's 2026.9 release candidates keep landing daily, each fixing one MySQL or RBAC edge.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Twenty and Wealthbox — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Twenty 2.48 runs agent conversations inside Slack threads and lets API keys export records.
Twenty ships a minor version roughly weekly with the SDK and CLI tagged in lockstep. 2.48 continues one agent conversation per Slack thread, lets the AI chat create, update and delete agents, caps an application's credits, supports more than two billing plans and imports Teams call transcripts. It also verifies IMAP and SMTP certificates by default and stops a custom AI provider form from silently overriding built-in OpenAI. 2.47 had already rewritten filter errors so AI agents can correct themselves.
Wealthbox is reframing the advisor CRM around agents, with AI Notetaker as the beachhead.
Four of five entries are AI Notetaker releases — three separate enhancement batches across February, April and May, aimed at capturing more conversations, sharing notes across a team, improving reliability, and cutting the admin that follows a client meeting. The outlier is a March announcement of an agent layer that Wealthbox positions as helping run a practice rather than analysing it. Only one non-AI release appears: contact actions inside opportunity workflows.

Agents are becoming the organising idea of the product: they now live in Slack threads, are managed from the AI chat, and get API errors written for them. The app platform is growing in parallel, with a marketplace consent screen, install stats, usage caps and a generate-client CLI, which points to third-party apps as the second pillar. Billing changes suggest the pricing ladder is about to widen.
Expect 2.49 to finish the Campaigns work flagged as part 1 of 2 and to extend agent reach to further chat or meeting sources; new billing tiers are likely but their shape isn't visible.

Only one non-AI release appears: contact actions inside opportunity workflows.
The record-to-action framing is doing real work here: three consecutive quarters of Notetaker investment establish that Wealthbox owns the meeting, and the agent announcement is the claim on what happens between meetings. The single workflow release matters more than its size suggests, because contact actions are the kind of primitive an agent needs to act on rather than just summarise.
Expect the agent layer to be wired into the workflow engine that just gained contact actions, so agents change records rather than only producing meeting notes.
