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.
Wistia is finishing the webinar product it started, one manual step at a time
Webinars dominate the recent work: branded confirmation, reminder and follow-up emails, a clearer overview page showing who holds manage access, and automatic notification of registrants when a webinar's date, time, timezone or destination changes. Alongside that runs a branding thread — video page background colors, logo and font control — and an integration thread covering SCIM provisioning through Okta and a Last Video Viewed Date field for Pardot scoring. Feed entries arrive as short teasers, so scope beyond the headline is often not readable.

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.

Wistia is converting webinars from a feature bolted onto a video host into a product that handles its own operational overhead. Each release removes something the organizer previously did by hand — rebranding an email, telling registrants a time moved, checking who owns an event. The parallel branding and identity work points the same way: fewer places where a Wistia-hosted experience looks or behaves like someone else's tool.
Expect the automatic-notification pattern to extend to other webinar state changes such as cancellation or a host swap, and the branding controls to reach the remaining unstyled surfaces around registration.
