What is Octopus.do?
Octopus.do adds an activity feed and email digests, filling in the team layer around its agent apps.
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through official ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server, and a public REST API. September has been about teams: project templates, Google Analytics data on the sitemap, a workspace-level shared symbol library on the Team plan, and now an Activity page that lists comments and changes across a user's projects, with email delivery at a chosen pace.
What is Savah?
A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing
Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.

Octopus.do
5.0DESIGN
Octopus.do adds an activity feed and email digests, filling in the team layer around its agent apps.
◆ Current state
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through official ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server, and a public REST API. September has been about teams: project templates, Google Analytics data on the sitemap, a workspace-level shared symbol library on the Team plan, and now an Activity page that lists comments and changes across a user's projects, with email delivery at a chosen pace.
◆ Where it's heading
Two tracks run in parallel. The agent interface makes the sitemap something an assistant can build or edit directly; the collaboration features (roles, shared symbols, templates, activity) make the workspace the place a team's site planning lives. Four releases in September against one every month or two earlier in the year shows the pace picking up, and most of the new surface is aimed at multi-person, multi-project accounts.
◆ Prediction
The next releases likely keep extending workspace-level features, with more of them gated to the Team plan as the symbol library was. Whether agent-made changes will surface in the new activity feed is not stated in the entries.
Savah
0.0DESIGN
A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing
◆ Current state
Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is toward a more complete enterprise-agile platform: not just visualizing PI work but configuring it to a team's model, reporting on it, and planning resources against it. Each release fills a gap a SAFe coach would otherwise solve with spreadsheets.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued depth on reporting and resource planning — likely more dashboard widgets and capacity/forecasting refinements that build on the recently shipped Dashboard module.
