Mailjet is publishing deliverability compliance guidance, and little else.
A low-cadence blog — ten posts spanning eight months — weighted toward authentication and regulatory change rather than product. The substantive entries are two treatments of the CNIL and Garante tracking-pixel guidance in France and Italy, and a DMARC post that states a real product default: Mailjet is DKIM-first. The rest is competitive migration content, a platform comparison still labelled 2025, and research published under the sibling Mailgun brand.
Saleshandy adds 7.7M people in October's Lead Finder refresh and reports on recent web flaws.
Saleshandy's recent releases center on Lead Finder: monthly data refreshes with published counts, ~8x faster contact reveals and CSV-based exclusion of contacts users already own. The October refresh added 7.7M people and updated 190M records, slightly below September's 8.08M and 249.8M. A separate post says the eMudhra key issue and the PHP and Node.js flaws did not affect accounts, and that services and servers were patched.

The positioning is compliance-and-deliverability first, which is the pitch of an infrastructure sender rather than a campaign tool — the transactional-plus-marketing post argues exactly that, against teams running two platforms. The Mailchimp migration guide and the comparison roundup point at where Mailjet expects to win customers: cost and consolidation, not features. Nothing in the window describes a shipped capability.
More regulatory response content is the safest read, since two of the last ten posts already cover the same EU pixel guidance; on product direction this source is silent and a release feed would be needed.

Lead Finder is becoming the product's core, with data freshness reported like a metric and features aimed at saving reveal credits. The security post continues a habit of plain-language customer communication seen in the monthly data updates.
Expect a November data refresh with published counts and more Lead Finder filtering or credit-saving features. The entries don't show new work on sequences or the dialer.
