Wakapi
A critical auth bypass lands in the middle of Wakapi's slow identity rebuild.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ellie Planner and Process Street — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Solo-built daily planner adds an AI assistant and more calendar/tool integrations.
Ellie is a solo-developer daily-planning app that combines calendar time-boxing, task capture, and a growing set of integrations. The most consequential recent addition is a built-in AI assistant on mobile and desktop; the changelog itself is candid and irregular, updated in bursts.
Process Street's public feed is an SEO content engine, not a changelog.
Nothing in this feed reports a product change. It runs a steady daily-ish cadence of evergreen business content — risk management primers, business writing advice, an MBTI personality explainer, a compliance audit walkthrough — interleaved with lead-generation assets built around free Process Playbook checklists and product how-tos like an employee onboarding automation guide. The one item with substance behind it is a customer story on a healthcare practice cutting insurance appeals prep from 15 minutes to under 2, which reads as a compliance-ops proof point rather than a release.
Ellie is a solo-developer daily-planning app that combines calendar time-boxing, task capture, and a growing set of integrations. The most consequential recent addition is a built-in AI assistant on mobile and desktop; the changelog itself is candid and irregular, updated in bursts.
Ellie is expanding along two lines: an AI assistant layered onto the planner, and a widening web of integrations (Todoist, Notion, Slack, Outlook/Apple calendars). The direction is a connected personal-planning hub, paced by a single maker's availability.
Expect the AI assistant to take on more planning and time-boxing work, and continued integration additions; release timing will stay irregular given the solo cadence.

The company positions itself as a compliance operations platform in its own feed signature, and the content is being steered to match: PHI handling, appeals packets, audit readiness, risk assessment and controls now sit alongside the older generic productivity material. Some of that older material is being recirculated rather than retired — a 2021 milestone retrospective carries a current date in this window, so the feed is partly an archive re-dump. Product direction cannot be read here at all.
Expect more compliance and regulated-industry content to displace the generic productivity posts, but this feed will keep carrying no release information, so any actual product movement will have to be observed elsewhere.
