What is Morgen?

Morgen has cleared the v4 rebuild and is using the new foundation to add web and AI features.

Morgen 4 went out of beta in January after an extended ramp, replacing the internal architecture and dropping legacy CalDAV and Exchange on-premise support. Subsequent releases have layered new capability on the new base: centralized tag management, extended CalDAV support, AI Planner reliability, Microsoft Planner task quotas, and routine events that merge into existing blocks. The cadence is biweekly small releases, with one duplicate publish noted in February.

What is Softr?

Softr's AI App Builder generates the database, roles, workflows and frontend from one prompt.

Softr is a no-code app builder that has spent the autumn building its own database and AI hooks. On 10 November it launched an AI App Builder: a user describes the app, and Softr generates the database, user roles and permissions, workflows, integrations and a fully custom frontend. It follows October's Migrate from Airtable flow, record grouping, credit usage history, in-app notifications and official connectors in Claude and ChatGPT.

Morgen vs Softr: editorial side-by-side

1.3

Morgen has cleared the v4 rebuild and is using the new foundation to add web and AI features.

◆ Current state

Morgen 4 went out of beta in January after an extended ramp, replacing the internal architecture and dropping legacy CalDAV and Exchange on-premise support. Subsequent releases have layered new capability on the new base: centralized tag management, extended CalDAV support, AI Planner reliability, Microsoft Planner task quotas, and routine events that merge into existing blocks. The cadence is biweekly small releases, with one duplicate publish noted in February.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is converting the Morgen 4 platform investment into shipping velocity, especially around AI scheduling, task integrations, and cross-platform reach (the web edition is now possible). Expect more polish on AI Planner and broader integration coverage as the architecture pays back the rewrite cost. The v3 sunset is scheduled, so future work targets v4 only.

◆ Prediction

The next directional move likely brings the Morgen web experience to general availability, plus AI Planner enhancements that reason over routines and tasks across calendars. More CRM and task-system integrations should follow now that the data layer is unified.

7.5

Softr's AI App Builder generates the database, roles, workflows and frontend from one prompt.

◆ Current state

Softr is a no-code app builder that has spent the autumn building its own database and AI hooks. On 10 November it launched an AI App Builder: a user describes the app, and Softr generates the database, user roles and permissions, workflows, integrations and a fully custom frontend. It follows October's Migrate from Airtable flow, record grouping, credit usage history, in-app notifications and official connectors in Claude and ChatGPT.

◆ Where it's heading

Softr is moving from assembling apps out of blocks on someone else's data to generating whole systems on its own stack. The Airtable migration put the data in Softr Database, and the AI builder now produces everything above it, including a frontend that is no longer limited to preset blocks. The September MCP drops and October connectors point the same way: Softr apps that AI tools can build and use.

◆ Prediction

Follow-up releases are likely to let users edit the generated app with prompts and to tie AI building to workflow credits; the single entry gives no detail on pricing or limits.
