Interact vs Wiki.js: at a glance
What is Interact?
Interact opens its intranet to outside AI assistants and uses Claude to attack its own platform.
Interact's October feed is led by Interact MCP, which brings the intranet into AI assistants people already use, with read and write access under each person's permissions. Its security team joined Anthropic's Cyber Verification Program and is testing its own platform with Claude Mythos 5.1, and Cyber Essentials certification now covers Interact and Sideways 6. The rest of the month is buyer guides, award news and thought leadership.
What is Wiki.js?
Wiki.js 3.0 beta ships an MCP server so AI agents can work against the wiki directly.
Wiki.js 3.0 is still a beta not meant for production, but beta.705 adds a built-in MCP server, refined personal access token scopes, page lifecycle rules with page ownership, a feedback board where reviewers manage ideas, and link completion in the markdown editor. Recent betas added live notes, math, access tokens, SCIM and Excalidraw collaboration.

Interact
5.0COLLAB
Interact opens its intranet to outside AI assistants and uses Claude to attack its own platform.
◆ Current state
Interact's October feed is led by Interact MCP, which brings the intranet into AI assistants people already use, with read and write access under each person's permissions. Its security team joined Anthropic's Cyber Verification Program and is testing its own platform with Claude Mythos 5.1, and Cyber Essentials certification now covers Interact and Sideways 6. The rest of the month is buyer guides, award news and thought leadership.
◆ Where it's heading
The Spring Action Agent work put agents inside the intranet; MCP moves the intranet out to wherever employees already work. That raises the stakes on trust, which is why the security items matter more than they would alone: a system holding company knowledge is being opened to more clients. The company's content messaging now describes the intranet as adaptive.
◆ Prediction
Expect Conductor and MCP connections to reach more business systems, following the Workday pattern from the Spring Launch. Further security attestations are also likely as AI access expands.
Wiki.js
6.3COLLAB
Wiki.js 3.0 beta ships an MCP server so AI agents can work against the wiki directly.
◆ Current state
Wiki.js 3.0 is still a beta not meant for production, but beta.705 adds a built-in MCP server, refined personal access token scopes, page lifecycle rules with page ownership, a feedback board where reviewers manage ideas, and link completion in the markdown editor. Recent betas added live notes, math, access tokens, SCIM and Excalidraw collaboration.
◆ Where it's heading
Each beta adds a piece that larger teams need: SSO and SCIM, governance through ownership and lifecycle rules, and now machine access through MCP and scoped tokens. 3.0 is becoming an AI-accessible knowledge base with enterprise controls rather than a straight successor to 2.x.
◆ Prediction
Expect MCP tools to be tied to the new PAT scopes and page rules, and the beta cadence to keep adding governance features before a release candidate.
