Richpanel now runs its own phone line and keeps letting its AI agent act in more store apps.
Richpanel is a support helpdesk for online stores. In October it launched Richpanel Voice, built-in calling with number purchase, phone menus, live coaching and caller context such as order count and lifetime value. The rest of the month added Whop, Postscript SMS, Subscribfy, ShipHero, Judge.me and Juo integrations, most of which let agents and the AI agent take actions such as pausing subscriptions or stopping shipments.
DoneDone's editor gets tables, spreadsheet paste and text colors.
DoneDone's November 13 release adds tables to the text editor, with direct paste from Google Sheets or Excel, plus text sizes, colors, highlighting and strikethrough. It follows the November 2 rework of Scheduled Tasks and October's bulk checklist entry and single email connection for several Mailboxes. Late summer brought workflow automations and custom fields.

Richpanel is moving from connecting phone providers to being the phone system itself, with calls in the same conversation as email and chat. The integration run has shifted from showing data next to a ticket to letting the AI agent act in the merchant's other apps. Breadth remains the strategy, with several integrations most weeks.
Expect more action-capable e-commerce integrations and voice features such as AI handling of calls. The entries do not say whether the AI agent answers calls yet.

It follows the November 2 rework of Scheduled Tasks and October's bulk checklist entry and single email connection for several Mailboxes. Late summer brought workflow automations and custom fields.
After the bigger summer releases, DoneDone has moved into steady polish of daily actions: replies, checklists, schedules and now formatting. Each release removes friction for small help-desk teams rather than adding a new module.
More small usability updates on email and tasks are likely; the entries give no sign of another large module soon.
