What is AFFiNE?
AFFiNE's canaries stay on upkeep: a Swift Collections bump follows CVE and migration fixes.
AFFiNE ships a canary build almost daily, and nearly all of October has been dependency and infrastructure work. The newest, canary 915, bumps Apple's Swift Collections package to 1.7.4 for the native apps. Before it came a happy-dom code-execution CVE patch, payment-record repairs during a data migration, and non-root, read-only containers with multi-architecture Windows builds.
What is Document360?
Document360's Eddy AI now summarizes what changed between article versions.
Document360 ships a knowledge-base release roughly every week, with its Eddy AI assistant in most of them. 12.10.2 adds AI summaries of differences between article versions, customizable reader feedback options, per-widget link behaviour settings and a central Engage dashboard to reuse and localize guides and videos. The prior release added source citations to Eddy AI answers and consolidated SSO setup.

AFFiNE
5.0COLLAB
AFFiNE's canaries stay on upkeep: a Swift Collections bump follows CVE and migration fixes.
◆ Current state
AFFiNE ships a canary build almost daily, and nearly all of October has been dependency and infrastructure work. The newest, canary 915, bumps Apple's Swift Collections package to 1.7.4 for the native apps. Before it came a happy-dom code-execution CVE patch, payment-record repairs during a data migration, and non-root, read-only containers with multi-architecture Windows builds.
◆ Where it's heading
The feed reads like a team hardening the backend and toolchain ahead of a larger cutover: a payment-identity migration, stricter deployment defaults and steady Renovate bumps across web, server and native code. Feature work isn't visible in canaries this month; the last user-facing fix was October 12's blob-upload quota correction.
◆ Prediction
Expect the data migration to finish in the next canaries, followed by a stable release that bundles it; the entries don't show which user-facing feature is next.
Document360
5.0COLLAB
Document360's Eddy AI now summarizes what changed between article versions.
◆ Current state
Document360 ships a knowledge-base release roughly every week, with its Eddy AI assistant in most of them. 12.10.2 adds AI summaries of differences between article versions, customizable reader feedback options, per-widget link behaviour settings and a central Engage dashboard to reuse and localize guides and videos. The prior release added source citations to Eddy AI answers and consolidated SSO setup.
◆ Where it's heading
Eddy AI is spreading from the reader-facing chatbot into the authoring and review workflow, with analytics, citations and now change summaries. Engage is being built out as a separate asset layer of guides and videos with its own localization and credit-based AI voiceovers.
◆ Prediction
Expect more AI help in the review and publishing flow, such as approvals or suggested fixes driven by version summaries.
