A side-by-side editorial comparison of Productboard and Ever Teams — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Productboard's v2 documents API now keeps plain web addresses and emoji as ordinary text.
Productboard's v2 API spent the summer closing v1 parity gaps, then in September made entity types a workspace-specific string. October added field values on relationships, exact-match text search and 308 redirects for merged entities. On November 5 the documents content endpoints changed how they treat bare URLs, email addresses and emoji: they now stay plain text unless written with explicit link syntax.
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

The v2 API is being tightened release by release so integrations can round-trip data without surprises. The documents format is the latest surface to get exact, documented rules.
Expect further dated v2 entries that fill in document and entity edge cases; nothing in the entries points to a larger change soon.

The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.
Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.
