Akiflow's newest release finally adds capability, but reliability work still fills the notes.
Release 2.80 is the first in several cycles to lead with something new: a Work with AI handoff that continues any task, event, or time slot in Claude or ChatGPT, task locations shared across desktop, web, and mobile, and a secondary timezone on mobile. It still devotes most of its length to a reliability pass over sync, recurrence, notifications, and crashes. That mirrors the preceding releases almost exactly — calendar editing, recurring-task correctness, in-app support, and a 200-plus issue stability round.
Fibery's Custom Apps go GA, completing its turn from work tracker to embedded app platform
Fibery spent the past quarter building and shipping Custom Apps — AI-generated mini-apps buildable inside the platform via Claude, ChatGPT, or MCP. Custom Apps launched publicly in mid-August after two months of experimental iteration. In the same period, Fibery added AI-driven automation creation, a usage dashboard tracking AI and integration consumption, and expanded MCP coverage to rich text editing and direct Custom Apps authoring. The platform is shipping weekly with a mix of headliner features and steady bug fixing.

That mirrors the preceding releases almost exactly — calendar editing, recurring-task correctness, in-app support, and a 200-plus issue stability round.
Two things are worth separating here. The product's own direction is incremental: correctness work on calendar and recurrence has dominated for months, and the new capabilities in 2.80 are conveniences rather than a change in what Akiflow is for. The AI surface is the exception worth watching — MCP task creation, task links opened by Claude and other MCP clients, and now an explicit handoff into Claude or ChatGPT mean the app is being shaped as something agents operate alongside the user. That work appears as fixes rather than announcements, which understates it.
Expect the AI handoff to deepen from copying a prompt toward acting on the task directly, given that MCP task creation and link handling are already being maintained as first-class paths. Reliability work will likely keep dominating the notes regardless.

Fibery is repositioning from a flexible project tracker into a platform where teams build custom tooling on top of their own data, without leaving the workspace. The Custom Apps launch — AI-generated, embeddable in documents, now on a versioned platform — is the clearest statement of that direction. MCP integration at multiple layers (rich text, apps, automations) shows Fibery making itself a first-class target in AI-native workflows rather than bolting on a chat widget.
The next likely move is tying Custom Apps directly into Fibery's automation engine — AI-built apps that trigger and respond to automations — which would close the loop between the platform's two main new capability axes. The breaking platform update to Custom Apps in September signals further architectural changes are coming before the feature stabilizes.
