Sendible is steadily hardening publishing reliability and reporting accuracy across networks
Sendible's changelog is genuine product work focused on two areas: making publishing more reliable (rebuilt media infrastructure, universal media validation) and improving cross-network reporting (Facebook Reels analytics, corrected LinkedIn follower data). Recent additions include image alt text for accessibility and a redesigned Unified Calendar for managing drafts, scheduled posts, and queues in one view. The feed shows some duplicate entries for the same feature on different dates.
One real Metricool update this period sits buried in a stream of marketing blog posts
The tracked feed is dominated by Metricool's marketing blog, growth-tool roundups, trend pieces, and tutorials, with a single genuine product update in the mix. That update extends Metricool Studio and Campaign Dashboards and, notably, adds full post-and-interaction data for LinkedIn personal profiles, not only the posts published through Metricool.

The feed shows some duplicate entries for the same feature on different dates.
The direction is operational dependability for social-media managers — fewer failed posts, accurate analytics, and a single workspace for scheduling. Sendible is deepening the core publish-and-measure loop rather than chasing new surfaces. Accessibility (alt text) and unified scheduling suggest attention to workflow polish on top of the reliability foundation.
Expect continued reporting-accuracy work across more networks and further consolidation of the scheduling/calendar experience, with reliability remaining the throughline.

That update extends Metricool Studio and Campaign Dashboards and, notably, adds full post-and-interaction data for LinkedIn personal profiles, not only the posts published through Metricool.
On the product side, Metricool is deepening analytics coverage, pulling in native platform data (all of a LinkedIn profile's posts) rather than only first-party published content, and building out reporting through Studio and Campaign Dashboards. The blog cadence signals heavy content-marketing investment but reveals little about the product itself.
Expect analytics coverage to keep broadening toward more networks' native post data and further Campaign Dashboard reporting; the blog-heavy feed means product signal will stay sparse.
