Wowza
Wowza's feed is mostly blog content; the real signal is a WebRTC overhaul in Engine 4.11.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of vMix and Bizzabo — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
vMix holds its perpetual-license cadence with two major releases in 2025.
vMix shipped versions 28 and 29 during 2025, with the typical eligibility pattern — free for buyers since January 2023 and included for vMix Max subscribers. The blog otherwise covers hardware ecosystem changes (NVENC encoder counts, Core Ultra laptops) and the occasional culture post.
Bizzabo puts an AI attendee copilot in every event, not just its top tier
Bizzabo's feed is mostly enterprise-event SEO and sales-enablement content — sponsorship ROI, sponsor management, lead capture, and buyer guides aimed at large event teams. The exception, and the only real product news in the window, is Bizzy AI: an attendee-facing copilot now generally available across every event on the platform, pitched at cutting help-desk load and surfacing relevant sessions.

The two-release year is faster than the historical annual cadence and reads as a deliberate defense of the perpetual-license model: enough major-version value to justify renewals without forcing subscription pricing. Hardware coverage stays GPU- and laptop-focused, reflecting the buyer base of live production operators choosing workstations.
Expect the next major release on a similar 9–10 month rhythm and continued hardware-recommendation posts as Intel and AMD ship new generations. The harder watch is whether vMix Max takes on more of the headline features versus the perpetual-licensed core product.

The product motion is toward embedding AI into the live attendee experience while the marketing motion keeps hammering sponsorship monetization and CRM-ready lead capture. Bizzabo is positioning as the enterprise event platform where AI personalization and pipeline attribution both live, and the Bizzy AI rollout is the clearest sign it wants that copilot standard rather than a premium add-on.
Expect Bizzy AI to expand from attendee Q&A toward organizer-side automation (agenda, matchmaking, sponsor reporting), tying the AI copilot into the sponsorship-ROI story the rest of the feed pushes.
