Drift's changelog has become Salesloft's: AI metrics, an MCP server, and agent-routed cadence work.

ai sales workflowmcp serveragent metricsai email assistantcadence orchestrationsalesloft merger
◆Current state
Drift's release feed now flows through the Salesloft umbrella post-merger, and what's shipping reads as a sales-ops platform layering AI into every workflow surface. Recent months added AI usage metrics in Analytics (Account researched, Person researched, Agent tasks completed), an AI Email Assistant inside the compose window, Cadence Collections for organizing cadences, and — most consequentially — a Salesloft MCP Server that exposes live pipeline, call, and account data to Claude and other AI tools.
◆Where it's heading
The trajectory is operator-plus-agent. Salesloft is instrumenting AI usage so managers can see and coach it, embedding AI assistance into the rep's daily compose/research flow, and opening its data plane to external agents through MCP. Drift's older anonymous-website-chat positioning is no longer the through-line — the through-line is making the seller's workflow agent-augmented end to end.
◆Prediction
Expect the MCP server to grow beyond read access into action endpoints (booking, logging, cadence enrollment), and for the AI metrics layer to become the framework that ties agent activity to pipeline outcomes inside Analytics.

    May rollup brings Agent Tasks metrics into existing AI reports and introduces an AI Email Assistant inside the compose window. Both moves keep AI embedded in the rep's existing workflow rather than parked in a separate surface.

    Salesloft ships MCP server for live data access from AI tools

    ⚡ SPARK

    April rollup ships the Salesloft MCP Server, letting AI tools like Claude pull live pipeline, call, and account data directly from Salesloft. Paired with a persistent Chrome side panel, this is the clearest signal yet that Salesloft sees its data plane as something to expose to external agents, not just to its own UI.
