FluentCRM vs Twenty: at a glance
What is FluentCRM?
FluentCRM's 3.0 rewrite adds SMS, AI authoring, and an MCP server
FluentCRM just shipped 3.0, a ground-up rewrite on Vue 3 with a Gutenberg-native email builder, SMS marketing, AI email authoring and summaries, an MCP server for AI agents, a new dashboard, and dark mode. The releases leading up to it were steady maintenance, hotfixes plus incremental WooCommerce and FluentCart integration work and reporting improvements.
What is Twenty?
Twenty 2.58.1 stops existing accounts from joining a workspace through SSO alone.
Twenty 2.58.1 and 2.58.2 carry the same change: SSO sign-in now requires an existing Twenty account to already be a member of the workspace. Invitations, invite links and approved domains only apply to new accounts, so an existing account joins once through its invitation and uses SSO after that. The release adds SAML and OIDC integration tests that run without an external identity provider. 2.58.0 shipped to npm on November 12 with only a file-rename note.

FluentCRM's 3.0 rewrite adds SMS, AI authoring, and an MCP server
◆ Current state
FluentCRM just shipped 3.0, a ground-up rewrite on Vue 3 with a Gutenberg-native email builder, SMS marketing, AI email authoring and summaries, an MCP server for AI agents, a new dashboard, and dark mode. The releases leading up to it were steady maintenance, hotfixes plus incremental WooCommerce and FluentCart integration work and reporting improvements.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from a WordPress email-marketing plugin toward a broader, AI-assisted, multi-channel CRM. SMS and the MCP server in particular push it beyond email and into agent-driven workflows.
◆ Prediction
Expect 3.x point releases stabilizing the rewrite, plus deeper SMS and AI build-out now that the foundation has shipped.
Twenty
5.0CRM
Twenty 2.58.1 stops existing accounts from joining a workspace through SSO alone.
◆ Current state
Twenty 2.58.1 and 2.58.2 carry the same change: SSO sign-in now requires an existing Twenty account to already be a member of the workspace. Invitations, invite links and approved domains only apply to new accounts, so an existing account joins once through its invitation and uses SSO after that. The release adds SAML and OIDC integration tests that run without an external identity provider. 2.58.0 shipped to npm on November 12 with only a file-rename note.
◆ Where it's heading
Twenty ships minor versions every few days, and most tags carry little detail. The changes that are described tighten access and security, as in this SSO fix, or extend the AI assistant inside the inbox and SDK. Point releases now carry the visible change rather than the minors.
◆ Prediction
More point releases on 2.58 are likely; the entries do not show which feature 2.59 will bring.
