Smartsupp keeps compounding its Mira AI shopping assistant
Smartsupp's updates are a steady build-out of its Mira AI shopping assistant and live chat: one-click conversation translation, product cards pulled from the merchant feed, richer AI-response formatting, automatic website-content refresh, and full-context awareness so Mira stops asking for details it can look up. A compact chat-box header is the lone cosmetic item.
SlickText's feed is all SMS buying guides; no product release has surfaced since RCS.
SlickText's recent feed is entirely search content: SMS segmentation, church and nonprofit texting comparisons, Black Friday tactics, cost breakdowns and guides on annual plans. No release appears in the entries since the basic RCS addition.

A compact chat-box header is the lone cosmetic item.
The direction is a more autonomous, context-aware commerce assistant, grounding Mira in the merchant's own feed and site, cutting manual setup, and smoothing multilingual support. Each release is incremental, but together they push Smartsupp from live chat toward an AI-first shopping layer.
Expect further Mira grounding and autonomy, with more automatic data sourcing and richer in-chat commerce as the product-card work points toward deeper catalog actions. Multilingual support looks set to widen.
SlickText's recent feed is entirely search content: SMS segmentation, church and nonprofit texting comparisons, Black Friday tactics, cost breakdowns and guides on annual plans. No release appears in the entries since the basic RCS addition.
The content is getting more explicit about buying decisions. Vertical comparison pages, published prices and an outgrown-your-platform pitch all aim at people ready to switch. Product motion cannot be read from these posts.
Expect Black Friday content through November and more vertical comparison pages. These entries give no evidence of how RCS is progressing.
