About Harvest
Harvest launches a Premium tier with SSO and Profitability Reporting, then ships a UI refresh.
Two coordinated April moves drive the period. First, Harvest Premium debuts as a new paid tier carrying SAML-based SSO, an Activity Log, and Profitability Reporting — a deliberate up-market push aimed at agencies and services firms whose finance and IT teams previously asked for those three things and didn't see them. Second, the entire app got a refresh ('A fresh Harvest') with a faster, cleaner interface. Around these are ACH payment support, a Windows desktop app, more flexible invoice sending, and task-level scheduling on the Forecast side. Several entries are duplicated across dates (the blog feed and the changelog feed both publish the same posts).
