Bitrix24's blog explains MCP for small teams; still no product releases.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Groundhogg and Snov.io — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Groundhogg 4.10 ends a year of quiet with a phone app, AI setup and dark mode.
Groundhogg is a WordPress CRM and marketing automation plugin whose visible releases centre on its flow editor and broadcasts. After 4.2.6 in October 2025, the feed was quiet for a year until 4.10 on October 30, 2026, which lets users install the CRM on a phone, connect ChatGPT or Claude in a few clicks, and switch the admin to dark mode.
Snov.io's October update brings LinkedIn Prospect Finder 4.0 and an AI Assistant.
Snov.io spent 2026 adding ChatGPT and Claude integrations, an n8n node, company enrichment, AI web enrichment and, in September, an AI message writer. The October roundup headlines LinkedIn Prospect Finder 4.0 and an AI Assistant. Update posts in this feed are short summaries, so feature detail is thin.

The 4.10 release moves beyond the flow editor toward access from anywhere and AI assistants connected to the CRM. Versions 4.3 to 4.9 are missing from the feed, so the steps in between are not visible.
Expect follow-up 4.10.x releases around the AI connection and mobile app; the feed's gaps make the cadence hard to predict.

The year's arc runs from data (enrichment, bulk email search) toward AI that acts on it (writer, assistant), with LinkedIn tooling refreshed alongside. Monthly roundups remain the release vehicle.
Expect November's roundup to extend the AI Assistant into more of the outreach workflow; the entries are too brief to say which parts.
