About Hive
Hive keeps widening Workflows automation while padding out chat and time-tracking.
Hive is shipping at a high cadence across two themes. Workflows keeps gaining triggers and actions (project-status triggers, project creation from templates, urgency triggers), turning it into a broader automation engine. In parallel, the collaboration layer fills in: audio messages, scheduled messages, quote blocks, a redesigned Files app, and timesheet reminder plumbing.
