What is Fibery?

Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.

Fibery's October 22 release is small: rich text accepts multiple files at once, with new upload and upload-by-link options, and the MCP server lets an AI assistant upload files from the user's computer into file fields or rich text. It follows three heavier releases: AI-built custom integrations, Custom Apps as entity views, and a rebuilt AI agent.

What is SmartSuite?

SmartSuite adds a scheduled JavaScript runtime with secrets and run history.

SmartSuite is a no-code work management platform that is adding developer and agent surfaces. Script Engine, a new admin page, lets workspaces write, schedule and monitor JavaScript with memory and timeout limits, secrets by reference and per-run history. It builds on Managed Secrets, released two weeks earlier, and the hosted MCP server from early October.

Fibery vs SmartSuite: editorial side-by-side

F7.5

Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.

◆ Current state

Fibery's October 22 release is small: rich text accepts multiple files at once, with new upload and upload-by-link options, and the MCP server lets an AI assistant upload files from the user's computer into file fields or rich text. It follows three heavier releases: AI-built custom integrations, Custom Apps as entity views, and a rebuilt AI agent.

◆ Where it's heading

Fibery is making AI the main builder and operator of the workspace: the agent, Custom Apps, AI-generated integrations and an MCP server that now handles code execution and files. The weekly cadence alternates big AI releases with quality-of-life updates like this one.

◆ Prediction

Expect the custom-integration preview to widen and the MCP server to gain more write actions; another large AI release is likely within a few weeks given the pattern.

S7.5

SmartSuite adds a scheduled JavaScript runtime with secrets and run history.

◆ Current state

SmartSuite is a no-code work management platform that is adding developer and agent surfaces. Script Engine, a new admin page, lets workspaces write, schedule and monitor JavaScript with memory and timeout limits, secrets by reference and per-run history. It builds on Managed Secrets, released two weeks earlier, and the hosted MCP server from early October.

◆ Where it's heading

SmartSuite is becoming programmable on three fronts: a hosted MCP server for agents, managed secrets, and now a scheduled code runtime. Together they let teams run integrations inside the platform instead of in Zapier or external cron jobs. Mobile dashboard parity and admin recovery tools continue alongside.

◆ Prediction

Expect scripts to gain record-event triggers beyond schedules, and links between Script Engine and the automation builder.
