What is Juuno?
Juuno's monthly notes add Google Reviews and scrolling announcements to its signage apps.
Juuno is a digital signage platform that ships one release note per month. September added a Google Reviews app, an On This Day app, scrolling text announcements, Canva designs in screen zones and social apps for white-label accounts. October followed with global search, an AI agent integration with per-workspace access and URL imports.
What is Arcade?
Arcade's AI video tool now works inside Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini via MCP.
Arcade's releases are almost all about AI video. The November release adds an Arcade MCP so users can create and edit videos from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and other assistants, with credit costs shown in the chat. It also adds 60 native voices in 15 more languages and one-click variations of a single video. In October, AI video got its own home and users could pick the model behind each video.

Juuno
2.5MARKETING
Juuno's monthly notes add Google Reviews and scrolling announcements to its signage apps.
◆ Current state
Juuno is a digital signage platform that ships one release note per month. September added a Google Reviews app, an On This Day app, scrolling text announcements, Canva designs in screen zones and social apps for white-label accounts. October followed with global search, an AI agent integration with per-workspace access and URL imports.
◆ Where it's heading
Juuno keeps widening its catalogue of screen apps each month, and October started connecting AI agents to workspace content. The Growth plan from July gives these features a paid tier to sit in.
◆ Prediction
Expect more single-purpose screen apps and further work on the AI agent integration in the November notes.
Arcade
6.3MARKETING
Arcade's AI video tool now works inside Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini via MCP.
◆ Current state
Arcade's releases are almost all about AI video. The November release adds an Arcade MCP so users can create and edit videos from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and other assistants, with credit costs shown in the chat. It also adds 60 native voices in 15 more languages and one-click variations of a single video. In October, AI video got its own home and users could pick the model behind each video.
◆ Where it's heading
Arcade spent the autumn turning its editor into an AI video studio, with style references, curated scenes and model choice. It is now taking that studio into the assistants people already use, and charging per edit in credits. Localisation and variations push it toward producing many versions of one video for different audiences.
◆ Prediction
Expect more agent-facing work, such as deeper MCP actions or usage-based pricing detail, since the MCP launch already exposes credit costs per edit.
