What is Botpress?
Botpress spent its last visible releases on the agent authoring seat — then went quiet in April.
Three releases account for all six entries; every one appears twice, once from the marketing changelog and once from the docs mirror. The Autonomous Node got a real prompt editor with a macro menu for referencing knowledge bases and variables plus a raw Markdown mode; Studio multiplayer was rebuilt for latency; the integrations Hub was redesigned; Knowledge Bases gained Linear, GitHub, Confluence, Google Drive and Notion as sources; and Studio picked up model selection for the Vision Agent and a --url flag on CLI deploys. The newest entry is from mid-April.
What is Krisp?
Krisp has stopped being a noise-cancellation utility and become a contact-center voice platform.
Every entry in the last two months is filed under Call Center AI. The product now spans Voice Translation, Accent Conversion, Voice Security with deepfake detection and agent voice verification, Speech Analytics with screen recording, and an Enterprise Analytics Portal for sharing results with clients. Releases alternate between web-side batches roughly weekly and desktop app builds, and admin controls appear in nearly every one.

Botpress spent its last visible releases on the agent authoring seat — then went quiet in April.
◆ Current state
Three releases account for all six entries; every one appears twice, once from the marketing changelog and once from the docs mirror. The Autonomous Node got a real prompt editor with a macro menu for referencing knowledge bases and variables plus a raw Markdown mode; Studio multiplayer was rebuilt for latency; the integrations Hub was redesigned; Knowledge Bases gained Linear, GitHub, Confluence, Google Drive and Notion as sources; and Studio picked up model selection for the Vision Agent and a --url flag on CLI deploys. The newest entry is from mid-April.
◆ Where it's heading
The work concentrates on two things: making the agent's prompt directly editable and inspectable rather than buried in UI, and widening the set of systems an agent can be grounded in. Both are builder-facing rather than end-user-facing, which fits a platform competing on how fast a team can get an agent into production. What comes after April is not visible in this feed.
◆ Prediction
On the visible pattern the next moves are more knowledge-source connectors and further Studio editor work; the three-month gap since the last entry makes anything beyond that unsupported.
Krisp
6.3COMMS
Krisp has stopped being a noise-cancellation utility and become a contact-center voice platform.
◆ Current state
Every entry in the last two months is filed under Call Center AI. The product now spans Voice Translation, Accent Conversion, Voice Security with deepfake detection and agent voice verification, Speech Analytics with screen recording, and an Enterprise Analytics Portal for sharing results with clients. Releases alternate between web-side batches roughly weekly and desktop app builds, and admin controls appear in nearly every one.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is real-time voice manipulation sold to contact centers, not consumers. Accent Conversion now runs on both sides of a call, translation gained speed control and a spelling mode for names and numbers, and the language list keeps growing. Voice Security is the defensive counterpart — the same synthesis capability that powers accent conversion is what makes deepfake detection necessary, and Krisp is selling both sides. The steady stream of admin controls, audit logs, and automated data cleanup shows an enterprise procurement checklist being worked through.
◆ Prediction
Expect the language and accent model coverage to keep widening and Voice Security to move from paid trial toward general availability. The portal API gaining audit logs suggests more of the admin surface will become programmatic.
