What is ClickFunnels?
ClickFunnels is closing its measurement gap: which funnel earned the sale, step by step.
ClickFunnels is spending its releases on attribution and reporting rather than new selling surfaces. Orders can now be filtered by the funnel that produced the payment, the Opt-ins tab records every opt-in a contact submits with the funnel step that captured it, and funnel sales totals roll all order types into one figure with longer date ranges. Alongside that, Under Attack Mode gained a Strong tier aimed squarely at card-testing bots.
What is Formaloo?
Formaloo is turning its form builder into something you describe rather than configure.
Formaloo runs a monthly release train, and the last few cycles moved it from a form builder to a workspace platform: portals with domain-restricted signup, workspace-level Themes, teams, timezone-consistent records, and voting on Kanban and Gallery boards. July's Magic Logic release is the turn — form logic, previously a rule system learned field ID by field ID, can now be generated from a plain-English description and reviewed as readable rules before it applies. The two cycles since are smaller: ranking and slider fields, Unsplash in the image picker, per-page covers.

ClickFunnels
5.0MKT AUTO
ClickFunnels is closing its measurement gap: which funnel earned the sale, step by step.
◆ Current state
ClickFunnels is spending its releases on attribution and reporting rather than new selling surfaces. Orders can now be filtered by the funnel that produced the payment, the Opt-ins tab records every opt-in a contact submits with the funnel step that captured it, and funnel sales totals roll all order types into one figure with longer date ranges. Alongside that, Under Attack Mode gained a Strong tier aimed squarely at card-testing bots.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is turning a page builder into something a marketer can audit. Each release answers a question an operator was previously exporting data to answer — which funnel is profitable, where in the step sequence people convert, what a funnel earned all-time. A parallel push widens API coverage over workflows, filters, and community so integrations and the agents built on them can reach more of the product.
◆ Prediction
Reporting is likely to keep consolidating into comparative views — funnel-versus-funnel and per-step conversion built on the attribution data these releases started capturing. The entries do not indicate whether that becomes a distinct analytics surface or stays layered onto the existing index pages.
Formaloo
6.3MKT AUTO
Formaloo is turning its form builder into something you describe rather than configure.
◆ Current state
Formaloo runs a monthly release train, and the last few cycles moved it from a form builder to a workspace platform: portals with domain-restricted signup, workspace-level Themes, teams, timezone-consistent records, and voting on Kanban and Gallery boards. July's Magic Logic release is the turn — form logic, previously a rule system learned field ID by field ID, can now be generated from a plain-English description and reviewed as readable rules before it applies. The two cycles since are smaller: ranking and slider fields, Unsplash in the image picker, per-page covers.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads are converging. The platform thread keeps replacing per-object configuration with workspace-level systems — Themes, timezone, teams, cleanup — so an admin sets something once and every form inherits it. The AI thread is aimed squarely at the setup cost of that system, and Magic Logic's design (generate, list every rule in plain text, then apply) suggests Formaloo wants AI authoring configuration rather than running at response time.
◆ Prediction
Expect the Magic Logic pattern — describe, preview as readable rules, apply in one click — to spread to the other configuration surfaces these release notes keep calling time sinks: themes, portal access rules, and data block setup.
