Evidence vs NocoDB
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Evidence and NocoDB — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Evidence vs NocoDB: at a glance
What is Evidence?
Evidence's last release was a February CVE sweep that also removed Evidence Cloud references.
Every tracked Evidence release is from a single day, February 6, 2026: a coordinated patch across the SDK, preprocessor, universal SQL layer and database connectors to pick up dependency updates for CVEs. The SDK patch also removes references to Evidence Cloud.
What is NocoDB?
NocoDB lets MCP clients connect by signing in and adds workflow run playback in 2026.10.0.
NocoDB ships a monthly release. In September MCP moved from the Claude connector directory to an account-wide agent surface. 2026.10.0 lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients connect by signing in, with no token to copy and no more access than the user's own role. It also adds step-through playback and pause/resume/retry for workflow runs, button-triggered automations, workload views in Timeline, and renames Interfaces to classic apps under a new Apps menu.
Evidence vs NocoDB: editorial side-by-side
Evidence
0.0ANALYTICS
Evidence's last release was a February CVE sweep that also removed Evidence Cloud references.
◆ Current state
Every tracked Evidence release is from a single day, February 6, 2026: a coordinated patch across the SDK, preprocessor, universal SQL layer and database connectors to pick up dependency updates for CVEs. The SDK patch also removes references to Evidence Cloud.
◆ Where it's heading
Nothing has shipped in the eight months since, so the open-source BI-as-code framework looks to be in maintenance mode. Removing Evidence Cloud references suggests the hosted offering has been dropped or separated, though the entries do not say why.
◆ Prediction
It is unclear from the entries whether active development will resume; the next release is more likely another dependency or security patch than new features.
NocoDB
6.3ANALYTICS
NocoDB lets MCP clients connect by signing in and adds workflow run playback in 2026.10.0.
◆ Current state
NocoDB ships a monthly release. In September MCP moved from the Claude connector directory to an account-wide agent surface. 2026.10.0 lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients connect by signing in, with no token to copy and no more access than the user's own role. It also adds step-through playback and pause/resume/retry for workflow runs, button-triggered automations, workload views in Timeline, and renames Interfaces to classic apps under a new Apps menu.
◆ Where it's heading
Agent access is now the product's spine: three releases in a row have widened what MCP clients can reach and how easily they connect, while workflows gain the observability expected of an automation tool. Renaming Interfaces to classic apps, plus a prompt box on the new project page when NocoAI is on, suggests a newer app layer is coming that the release doesn't describe yet.
◆ Prediction
Expect the non-classic Apps builder, likely prompt-driven via NocoAI, to be introduced in a coming release. The entries don't show its scope or plan tiering.
