Mailjet is publishing deliverability compliance guidance, and little else.
A low-cadence blog — ten posts spanning eight months — weighted toward authentication and regulatory change rather than product. The substantive entries are two treatments of the CNIL and Garante tracking-pixel guidance in France and Italy, and a DMARC post that states a real product default: Mailjet is DKIM-first. The rest is competitive migration content, a platform comparison still labelled 2025, and research published under the sibling Mailgun brand.
Saleshandy ships built-in CRM workflow automation and cuts Lead Finder lookup time from 40s to 5s.
Saleshandy has been expanding aggressively on multiple fronts since April: a built-in dialer, personal email enrichment, CSV enrichment, a Chrome click-to-call extension, email infrastructure plans with Azure support, and most significantly, a native multi-step automation engine for CRM integrations that replaces the need for Zapier or Make. The Lead Finder is getting faster (8x speedup in September) and the underlying prospect database is being refreshed monthly at scale (100M+ records updated per cycle). The product has moved well beyond an email sequencer.

The rest is competitive migration content, a platform comparison still labelled 2025, and research published under the sibling Mailgun brand.
The positioning is compliance-and-deliverability first, which is the pitch of an infrastructure sender rather than a campaign tool — the transactional-plus-marketing post argues exactly that, against teams running two platforms. The Mailchimp migration guide and the comparison roundup point at where Mailjet expects to win customers: cost and consolidation, not features. Nothing in the window describes a shipped capability.
More regulatory response content is the safest read, since two of the last ten posts already cover the same EU pixel guidance; on product direction this source is silent and a release feed would be needed.

The product has moved well beyond an email sequencer.
Saleshandy is consolidating outbound sales tooling into a single platform. Each feature launch (dialer, workflows, enrichment, infrastructure) is a direct replacement for a point tool that teams previously had to integrate separately. The pattern suggests an intent to own the full outbound workflow stack — sequence, data, call, automation, infrastructure — rather than play nicely with the surrounding ecosystem. The monthly database refresh cadence formalizes Lead Finder as a data product, not just a search UI.
The native workflow engine will deepen — expect more trigger types, CRM bi-directional actions, and tighter AI call-summary integration with the dialer. The Azure email infrastructure is likely expanding to more regions or adding dedicated IP pools for high-volume senders.
