A side-by-side editorial comparison of Velociraptor and Weblate — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Velociraptor vs Weblate: at a glance
What is Velociraptor?
Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.
Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.
What is Weblate?
Weblate 2026.11.2 speeds up stats and moves minor security issues into the open.
Weblate ships a monthly feature release and point releases after it. 2026.11 made built-in roles editable and widened Workspaces, and 2026.11.1 added account security findings with leaked-password checks. 2026.11.2 on November 12 adds a setting for default workspace translation-memory use, faster category statistics and translation propagation, and changes the security policy so low and medium issues are handled in public on GitHub.

Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.
◆ Current state
Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.
◆ Where it's heading
Since June the project has been in security mode, fixing CVEs on the current line and backporting to the previous one. Feature work shows up as new artifacts, here an Azure Monitor export, which keeps Velociraptor feeding results into the logging tools teams already use.
◆ Prediction
Expect further 0.77 patch releases and possibly another backport if new CVEs are published; the timing of a 0.78 feature release is not signaled here.

Weblate 2026.11.2 speeds up stats and moves minor security issues into the open.
◆ Current state
Weblate ships a monthly feature release and point releases after it. 2026.11 made built-in roles editable and widened Workspaces, and 2026.11.1 added account security findings with leaked-password checks. 2026.11.2 on November 12 adds a setting for default workspace translation-memory use, faster category statistics and translation propagation, and changes the security policy so low and medium issues are handled in public on GitHub.
◆ Where it's heading
Recent releases have pushed Weblate toward large hosted and enterprise installs: workspaces, identity-provider team sync, editable roles and now admin security tooling. Performance work targets installations with many users and projects.
◆ Prediction
2026.12 is likely to extend Workspaces and Automation further, with a point release about a week later.
