What is Salesmate?

Salesmate ships at a slow drumbeat with Sandy AI as its most directional move.

Salesmate's release cadence is sparse — roughly one update every couple of months — and most entries are small UX or workflow tweaks rather than platform changes. The most directionally significant move in the last year was Sandy AI, which folded an assistant for scheduling and summarization into the CRM. Recent work has tightened the existing surface: knowledge base consolidation, surveys, mobile navigation, name-field customization.

What is Twenty?

Twenty's sprint through v2.39-v2.40 stabilizes yarn pull and relicenses UI components as MIT.

Twenty is in a rapid patch cadence — multiple releases per day — focused on two parallel workstreams: hardening the yarn twenty pull code-sync command and cleaning up a licensing inconsistency. The twenty-ui package has been republished under MIT to resolve a stale AGPL dependency that blocked commercial use of the UI component library. Most patches are internal infrastructure fixes.

Salesmate vs Twenty: editorial side-by-side

Salesmate logo0.0

Salesmate ships at a slow drumbeat with Sandy AI as its most directional move.

◆ Current state

Salesmate's release cadence is sparse — roughly one update every couple of months — and most entries are small UX or workflow tweaks rather than platform changes. The most directionally significant move in the last year was Sandy AI, which folded an assistant for scheduling and summarization into the CRM. Recent work has tightened the existing surface: knowledge base consolidation, surveys, mobile navigation, name-field customization.

◆ Where it's heading

Salesmate is positioning as a quietly maturing all-in-one CRM rather than chasing a dominant trend. AI is being added narrowly (scheduling, summarization) rather than as a full agentic layer. Mobile and data-quality work suggest the priority is making the current product stickier for existing teams, not breaking into new categories.

◆ Prediction

Expect Sandy AI to expand further into deal-stage automation or pipeline summaries within the next two quarters, since that is the obvious next step from chat/email summarization. The slow cadence likely continues unless competitive pressure forces a step change.

T10.0

Twenty's sprint through v2.39-v2.40 stabilizes yarn pull and relicenses UI components as MIT.

◆ Current state

Twenty is in a rapid patch cadence — multiple releases per day — focused on two parallel workstreams: hardening the yarn twenty pull code-sync command and cleaning up a licensing inconsistency. The twenty-ui package has been republished under MIT to resolve a stale AGPL dependency that blocked commercial use of the UI component library. Most patches are internal infrastructure fixes.

◆ Where it's heading

The yarn twenty pull feature (write an installed application back to source code) is the main forward-looking investment in this window. The v2.40.0 fix completing the 'not exported yet' list shows this feature is being actively hardened for production use. With the MIT relicense of the UI components, the conditions for third-party developers building on top of Twenty's frontend are cleaner.

◆ Prediction

The pull/export workflow will reach stability around v2.41-v2.42, with export coverage for the currently unsupported types (roles, permissions, logic functions) arriving in subsequent patches. The MIT relicense may accelerate third-party component usage once it propagates through dependent registries.
