What is Smartsheet?

Smartsheet becomes where plans drafted in Claude Sheets get executed.

Smartsheet is rebuilding its core around table view: a table view report builder, Enterprise sheets above 500,000 cells, reports above 1,500,000 rows and a new Gantt view with critical path. On November 10 it added a beta that sends a plan started in Claude Sheets into Smartsheet, ready for a team to act on. Earlier it retired card view for Enterprise and limited AI to Table, Board and Timeline views.

What is Uplisting?

Vacation rental PMS unifies guest communication and reopens its partner API, then goes quiet for four months.

Uplisting is a short-term rental property management platform with deep Airbnb integration. Late 2025 and early 2026 ran three coordinated tracks: a unified guest inbox spanning OTA, SMS, and email; financial reporting overhauls (Client Statements 2.0 in November after the June revamp); and Airbnb-specific automation (alterations, New Listing Promotion, Gap Night Settings). The mobile app was fully rebuilt in January.

Smartsheet becomes where plans drafted in Claude Sheets get executed.

◆ Current state

Smartsheet is rebuilding its core around table view: a table view report builder, Enterprise sheets above 500,000 cells, reports above 1,500,000 rows and a new Gantt view with critical path. On November 10 it added a beta that sends a plan started in Claude Sheets into Smartsheet, ready for a team to act on. Earlier it retired card view for Enterprise and limited AI to Table, Board and Timeline views.

◆ Where it's heading

Two tracks are visible. The core product is consolidating onto fewer, larger views, and Smartsheet is positioning itself as the execution layer for work drafted elsewhere, starting with an AI spreadsheet. Imports from SharePoint and Workday sync point the same way: pull data in, run the work in Smartsheet.

◆ Prediction

Expect the Claude Sheets handoff to leave beta and similar send-to paths from other AI assistants, since the release frames Smartsheet as the destination rather than the drafting tool.

U0.0

Vacation rental PMS unifies guest communication and reopens its partner API, then goes quiet for four months.

◆ Current state

Uplisting is a short-term rental property management platform with deep Airbnb integration. Late 2025 and early 2026 ran three coordinated tracks: a unified guest inbox spanning OTA, SMS, and email; financial reporting overhauls (Client Statements 2.0 in November after the June revamp); and Airbnb-specific automation (alterations, New Listing Promotion, Gap Night Settings). The mobile app was fully rebuilt in January.

◆ Where it's heading

The unified-inbox theme is the strongest signal — SMS in August, email in October, the rebuilt mobile app picking it up in January. The Custom Booking Attributes release in November ('first major Public API improvement in years') suggests Uplisting is reopening the partner integration surface. There has been no public release since January 13 — four months of silence is the most notable trajectory feature right now.

◆ Prediction

Expect Uplisting's next release to cover either AI-assisted guest messaging on top of the unified inbox, the next wave of API endpoints for partners, or Vrbo-side equivalents of the deep Airbnb-integration features. The four-month gap may indicate a major release in preparation.
