What is Richpanel?
A third phone provider lands, and voice keeps arriving pre-summarized rather than as audio.
Telebroad joins RingCentral and Consio as a connectable phone and SMS channel, with call recording, an AI transcript, and a summary attached to every call and SMS threading into the same ticket. It follows the Medusa.js headless-commerce connector and the Onward, Rivo, and Klaviyo integrations before it — the same sidebar contract applied to one more source each time.
What is Sleekplan?
Sleekplan is shipping enterprise-grade B2B features at speed: SCIM, account-level feedback groups, and internal product documentation in a single sprint.
Sleekplan has entered a period of rapid enterprise feature development following its 2.0 rebuild in June. The recent wave includes SCIM directory sync (Okta, Entra ID, OneLogin), account-level Groups that reweight feedback by company rather than individual user counts, identity privacy controls for public boards, internal-only status visibility, Components as a second taxonomy axis, and internal Documents for PRDs and decision records. This is not incremental polish — each addition addresses a distinct enterprise sales objection.

Richpanel
5.0SUPPORT
A third phone provider lands, and voice keeps arriving pre-summarized rather than as audio.
◆ Current state
Telebroad joins RingCentral and Consio as a connectable phone and SMS channel, with call recording, an AI transcript, and a summary attached to every call and SMS threading into the same ticket. It follows the Medusa.js headless-commerce connector and the Onward, Rivo, and Klaviyo integrations before it — the same sidebar contract applied to one more source each time.
◆ Where it's heading
Richpanel is building a support inbox whose value is the context already sitting next to the conversation, and voice is being normalized into that model rather than treated as a separate medium: agents read a summary instead of replaying a recording. The integration cadence is steady and the shape never varies, which makes breadth the strategy — every new provider is another set of merchants who can adopt without changing their stack.
◆ Prediction
Expect further phone and commerce providers on the same template, since nothing in these releases suggests a change in what the sidebar or the AI agent does with the context once it arrives.
Sleekplan
8.8SUPPORT
Sleekplan is shipping enterprise-grade B2B features at speed: SCIM, account-level feedback groups, and internal product documentation in a single sprint.
◆ Current state
Sleekplan has entered a period of rapid enterprise feature development following its 2.0 rebuild in June. The recent wave includes SCIM directory sync (Okta, Entra ID, OneLogin), account-level Groups that reweight feedback by company rather than individual user counts, identity privacy controls for public boards, internal-only status visibility, Components as a second taxonomy axis, and internal Documents for PRDs and decision records. This is not incremental polish — each addition addresses a distinct enterprise sales objection.
◆ Where it's heading
Sleekplan is systematically closing the gap between a startup-friendly feedback tool and something IT and procurement teams can approve at mid-market and enterprise accounts. SCIM removes the manual provisioning burden, Groups make the feedback data credible for B2B prioritization decisions, and Documents keep the reasoning inside the tool rather than scattered across Notion or Confluence. The trajectory is clear: become the product feedback system of record for B2B SaaS teams.
◆ Prediction
SSO (SAML) and role-based access controls are the next likely additions to complete the enterprise security checklist, and Groups will likely gain weighting by contract value (ARR) once customers start requesting customer-revenue-aware prioritization.
