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 Sugar Calendar?

Events can finally ask attendees a question at the moment they sign up.

Registration Forms arrive as a tab on the event itself: a small builder with five field types — short text, long text, multiple choice, checkboxes and dropdown — each markable as required, asked at ticket checkout or on the RSVP form, with the answer landing on the attendee's record beside their name and ticket. The post is explicit that this collapses two separate requests, custom fields on checkout and custom fields on RSVP, into one feature. It follows a run of releases that added attendee email, Elementor page design, per-event ticket pricing and Zoom links.

Fibery vs Sugar Calendar: 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.

S5.0

Events can finally ask attendees a question at the moment they sign up.

◆ Current state

Registration Forms arrive as a tab on the event itself: a small builder with five field types — short text, long text, multiple choice, checkboxes and dropdown — each markable as required, asked at ticket checkout or on the RSVP form, with the answer landing on the attendee's record beside their name and ticket. The post is explicit that this collapses two separate requests, custom fields on checkout and custom fields on RSVP, into one feature. It follows a run of releases that added attendee email, Elementor page design, per-event ticket pricing and Zoom links.

◆ Where it's heading

Every release this quarter has removed one thing an organiser previously did outside the plugin — the follow-up email, the page builder, the pricing spreadsheet, the Zoom link, and now the post-signup questionnaire and the spreadsheet of answers that went stale on the first cancellation. The pattern is consistent enough to read as a deliberate sweep of the manual work around an event rather than a feature roadmap. Each arrives as a how-to titled post rather than a release note.

◆ Prediction

Answers now sit on the attendee record, so the next obvious step is doing something with them in bulk — filtering or exporting attendees by response, or segmenting the follow-up email by answer. The post stops at collection.
