Super Productivity vs Tracecat
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Super Productivity and Tracecat — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Super Productivity vs Tracecat: at a glance
What is Super Productivity?
Super Productivity's feed shows a docs commit, not a release, since August.
The last tagged release is v18.21.2 in late August, which repaired legacy data migration and sync privacy after the 18.21 device-list and live-presence work. The newest entry is a branch tag on a docs commit recording known capture gaps for repeat tasks and time blocks, not a release.
What is Tracecat?
Tracecat 1.5 alpha patches add sub-cases and lock down agent sandboxes.
Tracecat 1.4.0 went stable with MCP variable tools and case task actions, and 1.5.0-alpha.2 hardened multi-tenant installs with row-level security, database roles and cloud IAM logins. Four alpha.2 patches followed within a day: sub-cases close with their parent and can be used to deduplicate cases, sandboxes start isolated and cannot read loader variables, agents can use more than 50 tools, and several API errors now return proper status codes.
Super Productivity vs Tracecat: editorial side-by-side
Super Productivity's feed shows a docs commit, not a release, since August.
◆ Current state
The last tagged release is v18.21.2 in late August, which repaired legacy data migration and sync privacy after the 18.21 device-list and live-presence work. The newest entry is a branch tag on a docs commit recording known capture gaps for repeat tasks and time blocks, not a release.
◆ Where it's heading
The 18.x line built SuperSync into an account surface with device management and encrypted-only uploads, then paused for repair. The docs commit suggests work on task capture is underway, but nothing has shipped in the feed since.
◆ Prediction
The next release likely addresses repeat-task and time-block capture, given the recorded gaps; the feed shows no date.
Tracecat
6.3PM
Tracecat 1.5 alpha patches add sub-cases and lock down agent sandboxes.
◆ Current state
Tracecat 1.4.0 went stable with MCP variable tools and case task actions, and 1.5.0-alpha.2 hardened multi-tenant installs with row-level security, database roles and cloud IAM logins. Four alpha.2 patches followed within a day: sub-cases close with their parent and can be used to deduplicate cases, sandboxes start isolated and cannot read loader variables, agents can use more than 50 tools, and several API errors now return proper status codes.
◆ Where it's heading
The 1.5 line is about making Tracecat safe to run for many tenants and many agents at once. The patch run splits between tenant isolation fixes and case management features for handling duplicate alerts.
◆ Prediction
Expect more alpha.2.x patches and then a 1.5.0 release candidate that bundles the tenant isolation work with sub-case handling.
