A side-by-side editorial comparison of GravityKit and Jackett — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
GravityKit vs Jackett: at a glance
What is GravityKit?
GravityKit adds Google Sheets export and Elementor calendar widget — WordPress form data reaches beyond the CMS.
GravityKit is an ecosystem of Gravity Forms extensions for WordPress (GravityView, GravityCalendar, GravityMath, GravityMigrate, GravityExport). The most recent releases add a Google Sheets live export that keeps spreadsheets in sync with Gravity Forms data, a GravityCalendar widget for Elementor, and Multiple Forms unions (stacking entries from multiple forms in a single view). Weekly 'Launch Log' releases ship 3–5 improvements and fixes across the plugin suite.
What is Jackett?
Jackett ships a daily build to keep hundreds of torrent indexers working as sites move and close.
Jackett is an open-source proxy that turns hundreds of torrent tracker sites into a single Torznab API for media automation tools. It ships an auto-generated release roughly every day, and nearly every one is indexer upkeep: new domains, category mappings, selector fixes after site redesigns, and removing dead trackers.

GravityKit
5.0INFRA · APIS
GravityKit adds Google Sheets export and Elementor calendar widget — WordPress form data reaches beyond the CMS.
◆ Current state
GravityKit is an ecosystem of Gravity Forms extensions for WordPress (GravityView, GravityCalendar, GravityMath, GravityMigrate, GravityExport). The most recent releases add a Google Sheets live export that keeps spreadsheets in sync with Gravity Forms data, a GravityCalendar widget for Elementor, and Multiple Forms unions (stacking entries from multiple forms in a single view). Weekly 'Launch Log' releases ship 3–5 improvements and fixes across the plugin suite.
◆ Where it's heading
GravityKit is expanding the data portability and presentation options for Gravity Forms users: Google Sheets export, Elementor integration, and Multiple Forms unions all extend where form data can go and how it can be displayed. The consistent weekly cadence and security hardening releases (GravityMigrate, GravityRevisions) indicate a mature plugin ecosystem in steady maintenance mode with targeted new capabilities.
◆ Prediction
The Google Sheets export is likely to gain more granular sync controls (webhook triggers, specific column mapping). Additional page builder integrations beyond Elementor are probable given the established pattern.
Jackett
5.0INFRA · APIS
Jackett ships a daily build to keep hundreds of torrent indexers working as sites move and close.
◆ Current state
Jackett is an open-source proxy that turns hundreds of torrent tracker sites into a single Torznab API for media automation tools. It ships an auto-generated release roughly every day, and nearly every one is indexer upkeep: new domains, category mappings, selector fixes after site redesigns, and removing dead trackers.
◆ Where it's heading
The work is entirely maintenance. Its value depends on keeping up with a tracker ecosystem where sites change domains and layouts weekly. Where possible, the project is moving definitions to sturdier integrations, such as switching world-of-tomorrow to its Torznab API and retiring trackers that moved to direct downloads.
◆ Prediction
Expect the daily cadence to continue, with more trackers moved to API-based definitions and more dead sites removed. Core changes stay rare.
