What is Ethico?
The whistleblower hotline vendor is assembling a compliance suite, one module at a time.
Ethico's case management platform has added a module roughly every quarter: a Risk Assessment module, a role-based myCM dashboard, a custom chart builder in ecoReports, redesigned case follow-ups with automation workflows, category and sub-category hierarchy configuration, and a Communications Hub consolidating emails, reporter updates and comments into one place. The newest release introduces Policy+ and a Form Builder. Announcements are published as previews on LaunchNotes ahead of the actual release, so the notes are brief and forward-looking.
What is Teable?
Teable's Structured Query v2 now reports across multi-hop relations, with a strict mode against SQL.
Teable ships near-daily. The October 27 release extends Structured Query v2 to same-project relational reporting across one-to-many, many-to-many and up to three-hop relations, with aggregates, grouping and permissions checked at every hop; new SQL-based query definitions now get warnings, with an optional strict mode that rejects them. The same release adds atomic record upsert on a unique field, a Table Operations console for admins, an Artifact Manager, and paginated base listing over MCP and CLI.

◆ Current state
Ethico's case management platform has added a module roughly every quarter: a Risk Assessment module, a role-based myCM dashboard, a custom chart builder in ecoReports, redesigned case follow-ups with automation workflows, category and sub-category hierarchy configuration, and a Communications Hub consolidating emails, reporter updates and comments into one place. The newest release introduces Policy+ and a Form Builder. Announcements are published as previews on LaunchNotes ahead of the actual release, so the notes are brief and forward-looking.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is stated plainly in the latest title — a connected compliance ecosystem rather than a hotline with a case queue. Each module extends further up the compliance lifecycle: risk assessment before an incident, policy distribution and attestation alongside it, case handling after. The consistent secondary theme is configurability, with categories, dashboards, charts and account settings all moving from fixed to customer-defined.
◆ Prediction
Policy+ and Form Builder suggest the next work is tying attestation and intake data back into case and risk reporting, since that is the connection the ecosystem framing implies. The published entries are truncated previews, so the actual scope of each release is not fully visible here.

7.5COLLAB
Teable's Structured Query v2 now reports across multi-hop relations, with a strict mode against SQL.
◆ Current state
Teable ships near-daily. The October 27 release extends Structured Query v2 to same-project relational reporting across one-to-many, many-to-many and up to three-hop relations, with aggregates, grouping and permissions checked at every hop; new SQL-based query definitions now get warnings, with an optional strict mode that rejects them. The same release adds atomic record upsert on a unique field, a Table Operations console for admins, an Artifact Manager, and paginated base listing over MCP and CLI.
◆ Where it's heading
Since the chat-first preview on October 21, each release has moved more of the product onto structured queries that agents can use safely, and away from raw SQL. Admin and integration tooling (upsert, complexity assessment, MCP pagination) is now arriving to support larger workspaces built this way.
◆ Prediction
Expect strict mode to tighten toward a default and the remaining query gaps, such as cross-project relations and sorting by to-many fields, to close next.
