0.0DESIGN

◆ Current state
The crawled entries are evergreen guides from 2023 and 2024: Scrum roles, Agile versus Waterfall, and PM glossaries. Xtensio is a collaborative document and template tool, but this feed shows no recent publishing and no product changes; the newest item is roughly two years old.
◆ Where it's heading
There is no current trajectory visible, the feed is dormant. Either Xtensio stopped publishing here or the crawler is pointed at an archived content section.
◆ Prediction
Nothing in the feed supports a confident prediction; the crawl source likely needs to be re-pointed at an active channel.
Carrd
5.0DESIGN
Carrd Analytics adds a 90-day view; the changelog stays small and steady.
◆ Current state
Carrd's visible record is short, terse entries. Deleted sites land in a Trash folder for three days, or fourteen on Pro, signup forms post directly to Resend, and Prefill Reply-To now fills the sender's name. November added a Leaves background pattern and a Last 90 days period in Carrd Analytics.
◆ Where it's heading
The cadence is small polish on a mature builder: forms, dashboard conveniences and design assets. Nothing in the entries points to a structural change.
◆ Prediction
More small additions to forms and design patterns are the likely next entries; the changelog is too sparse to predict anything larger.
