Folk
5.0CRM
folk now pitches itself as the CRM for the agent era.
◆ Current state
folk is a CRM for small sales teams that has spent the autumn opening its data to AI agents. A November 6 post repositions it as 'the CRM for the agent era', turning customer data into context agents act on. October added bulk create and update through folk MCP, enrichment through the API and MCP, call recording in beta and a French interface.
◆ Where it's heading
The positioning now matches what the releases have been building: MCP access, bulk writes and self-enrichment make folk a data layer agents can use. The new post states the direction but ships no new feature itself.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next releases to give agents more write actions through MCP, such as tasks or pipeline moves, to back up the new positioning.
Vcita
0.0CRM
A small-business CRM whose feed captured its marketing pages instead of its releases
◆ Current state
The tracked feed contains no changelog. Two entries are homepage marketing copy scraped as records — headline, subheading and a trial call to action. The rest are blog posts: an AI stack guide for service businesses, a payments and billing guide, a best-CRM listicle, and a year-in-review post referring to 2025's newest features without describing them.
◆ Where it's heading
What can be read from this is positioning rather than product: vcita sells an all-in-one platform to service businesses on the promise of less admin and faster payment, and its content targets owners searching for AI tooling and payment advice. The one product-shaped entry is a retrospective, so even it does not identify individual changes.
◆ Prediction
No release information appears anywhere in the window, so this feed does not support a prediction about the product. The parser capturing landing-page copy as entries suggests the source needs correcting before it will.
