Chanty's crawled feed is all SEO comparison content — product direction isn't visible here.
The crawled window is entirely Chanty's marketing blog: competitor 'alternatives' listicles (Yammer, Jive, Skype, Zoom) and 'vs Slack' comparison posts, plus an employee-satisfaction statistics roundup. None of these are changelog or release entries, so no actual product change is observable in this window.
Krisp opens a second front: Voice Security to defend contact centers against AI voice fraud.
Krisp has fully repositioned around Call Center AI and ships nearly every week. The defining recent move is Krisp Voice Security — a new product line with deepfake detection and agent-voice protection — layered on top of a steady cadence of Voice Translation, Speech Analytics, and admin-control work. The consumer noise-cancellation roots have receded into the background; this now reads as a contact-center platform.

On this evidence Chanty is investing in SEO and comparison content that positions its team-chat app against Slack and legacy collaboration tools, not shipping visible product updates. Where the product itself is heading cannot be read from a marketing feed.
Expect more 'best alternatives' and 'vs Slack' listicles; the feed will not reveal product moves unless the crawl source is pointed at an actual changelog rather than the blog.

The consumer noise-cancellation roots have receded into the background; this now reads as a contact-center platform.
Two arcs are compounding. One deepens the analytics and translation core — broader languages, CRM-aware Speech Analytics via Salesforce, real-time oversight of translated calls. The other establishes a security posture aimed squarely at AI voice fraud. Krisp is moving from 'make calls clearer' to 'make calls trustworthy and measurable,' with admin and audit controls maturing alongside both.
Voice Security most likely expands beyond deepfake detection toward broader fraud and identity tooling, and the CRM-integration pattern started with Salesforce extends to more systems feeding Speech Analytics. Both follow directly from the launch and integration entries in this feed.
