What is Planable?
Competitor Analytics keeps deepening while the API and MCP make the whole tool callable.
Planable is shipping every one to two weeks along two tracks. Competitor Analytics launched in June with Instagram and Facebook, added YouTube, TikTok and LinkedIn in July, and now breaks results down by content format with per-account rankings and CSV export. Separately, the public API and MCP connector reached v2 with campaigns, custom views and competitor data, while publishing coverage filled in Facebook Stories, Google Business Profile video, and Instagram AI content labeling.
What is Rockerbox?
Rockerbox's public changelog stopped publishing in 2016 — only an early-product snapshot is visible.
Rockerbox is a marketing measurement platform, but the only entries available describe an early-2016 version focused on segment management, off-site domain tracking, and a content-engagement dashboard. The most recent entry is from May 2016 — there is no visible release activity in the input across the years since.

Planable
6.3MARKETING
Competitor Analytics keeps deepening while the API and MCP make the whole tool callable.
◆ Current state
Planable is shipping every one to two weeks along two tracks. Competitor Analytics launched in June with Instagram and Facebook, added YouTube, TikTok and LinkedIn in July, and now breaks results down by content format with per-account rankings and CSV export. Separately, the public API and MCP connector reached v2 with campaigns, custom views and competitor data, while publishing coverage filled in Facebook Stories, Google Business Profile video, and Instagram AI content labeling.
◆ Where it's heading
The two tracks answer the same question from different ends: Planable wants to be where a social team both decides what to post and measures whether it worked, and it wants an assistant to be able to do either through the API. The insistence that API and MCP writes still land as drafts in the approval flow is the load-bearing design choice - it lets Planable open the product to agents without giving up the review step agencies actually pay for. Analytics remains gated behind a paid add-on, which is where the monetization is pointed.
◆ Prediction
Competitor Analytics is the active surface and should keep gaining dimensions - likely posting cadence or timing benchmarks after format - and AI content labeling will extend past Instagram as other networks open third-party access.
Rockerbox
0.0MARKETING
Rockerbox's public changelog stopped publishing in 2016 — only an early-product snapshot is visible.
◆ Current state
Rockerbox is a marketing measurement platform, but the only entries available describe an early-2016 version focused on segment management, off-site domain tracking, and a content-engagement dashboard. The most recent entry is from May 2016 — there is no visible release activity in the input across the years since.
◆ Where it's heading
Within the visible snapshot, the team was iterating on segment-management UX (segment groups, sortable top bar, documentation links) and on performance (cached time series and domain pages, sub-filtering for actions). Beyond that the input gives no signal — Rockerbox almost certainly continued shipping, just not on this changelog channel.
◆ Prediction
The entries don't support a confident prediction about current direction. Anything published since 2016 lives somewhere other than this feed — release notes elsewhere, product blog posts, or release communication moved to private channels.
