Twenty vs Twenty: at a glance
What is Twenty?
Twenty 2.52 lets apps run their own account-connection flows and adds inbox sharing.
Twenty 2.52.0 has a breaking change: apps can now connect accounts through their own authorization flow, and members manage personal app connections from preferences. The release also adds inbox thread sharing, global chat commands, email approval review, and weekly AI credits shown in chat. Much of the rest rebuilds record-form editing for emails, phones, links, files and addresses, and brings back table and toggle controls lost in 2.51's TipTap switch.
What is Twenty?
Twenty 2.53 lets apps lock field permission actions, a day after role-aware relation pickers.
Twenty shipped 2.53.0 and 2.53.1 on Oct 28, a day after 2.52.0. The 2.53.0 notes list only docs translations; 2.53.1 lets applications disable field permission actions on the fields they own. 2.52 had made relation pickers offer only targets the current role may update, and 2.51 replaced BlockNote with TipTap and put custom roles behind a billing entitlement.

Twenty
5.0CRM
Twenty 2.52 lets apps run their own account-connection flows and adds inbox sharing.
◆ Current state
Twenty 2.52.0 has a breaking change: apps can now connect accounts through their own authorization flow, and members manage personal app connections from preferences. The release also adds inbox thread sharing, global chat commands, email approval review, and weekly AI credits shown in chat. Much of the rest rebuilds record-form editing for emails, phones, links, files and addresses, and brings back table and toggle controls lost in 2.51's TipTap switch.
◆ Where it's heading
Twenty is pushing its app platform outward: third-party apps now own their auth and channels, and SDK packages ship in lockstep with core. Alongside it, the product is building a shared inbox and an AI chat with metered credits and human approval steps. The editor and form work shows a team still paying down 2.51's TipTap migration.
◆ Prediction
Expect a 2.52.x patch round for the new connection flow and record-form bricks, and more approval-gated AI actions in chat. Removal of the deprecated blocknote sub-field is still pending.
Twenty
5.0CRM
Twenty 2.53 lets apps lock field permission actions, a day after role-aware relation pickers.
◆ Current state
Twenty shipped 2.53.0 and 2.53.1 on Oct 28, a day after 2.52.0. The 2.53.0 notes list only docs translations; 2.53.1 lets applications disable field permission actions on the fields they own. 2.52 had made relation pickers offer only targets the current role may update, and 2.51 replaced BlockNote with TipTap and put custom roles behind a billing entitlement.
◆ Where it's heading
Releases are arriving almost daily now, and the visible changes keep landing on roles and permissions, both in the CRM UI and in what installed applications can control. The SDK is tagged in lockstep with each server version, so the app platform and the permission model are evolving together.
◆ Prediction
Expect 2.53.x patches with more app-level permission controls; the published notes are too thin to say what else 2.53 contains.
