Salesloft vs Planable
Side-by-side trajectory, velocity, and editorial themes.
Post-merger Salesloft wires its sales data into AI agents via MCP on both the Salesloft and Clari sides
Salesloft ships monthly release notes across a wide surface—Cadence/Rhythm, Conversations, Connect for Outlook and Chrome, Clari, and Drift. Since the Clari merger closed, two threads dominate: making sales-engagement and revenue-intelligence data accessible to AI agents, and hardening the Connect side panel into a daily surface inside Outlook and Chrome.
The merged Clari+Salesloft stack is converging toward an agent-accessible revenue platform: MCP servers now exist on both sides, AI drafting and call scoring run throughout, and new agent-task metrics exist to prove adoption. The Connect experience is being built up to keep sellers inside their inbox.
Expect tighter Clari–Salesloft data unification and a broadening agentic surface—wider MCP coverage and more agent tasks—alongside continued Outlook/Chrome Connect parity. This is grounded in the repeated MCP, agent-metrics, and Connect build-out across the recent notes.
Planable keeps widening channel coverage while bolting an AI and open-API layer onto its approval calendar.
Planable is a social-media content planning and approval workspace where teams draft, review, and publish across channels. Its recent work runs on two tracks: broadening per-channel format coverage (Facebook Stories, Google Business Profile video, LinkedIn mobile publishing) and building an AI-plus-programmability layer (MCP connector, public API, brand-voice context, AI-written ALT text, AI-search visibility analytics). The core calendar-and-approval loop is stable; new surfaces are being added around it rather than reworking it.
The pattern is Planable moving from a manual approval calendar toward a programmable, AI-assisted hub: nearly every new post surface ships with an AI or automation hook attached. The public API and MCP connector open the product to external tooling and agents, while workspace brand context makes its AI outputs client-specific. Analytics is expanding past measuring your own pages into competitor benchmarking and AI-search visibility.
Expect the remaining channels to pick up the same direct/mobile-publish and AI-generation treatment, and the AI features (brand context, ALT text, visibility) to reach deeper into the composing and reporting flow. The API and MCP surfaces suggest more integration and agent-facing capability rather than a pricing or positioning change.
