Ever Gauzy vs PeopleForce: at a glance
What is Ever Gauzy?
Ever Gauzy gives its new inbox a settings UI, with each mailbox linked to an Ever Works agent.
Gauzy shipped v111.112.0 through v111.113.4 in about 20 minutes on October 17. The one user-facing feature is the first inbox UI: Settings → Inbox → Mailboxes, a My mailbox view, and a link from each mailbox to an Ever Works agent. The rest is a run of tightly scoped fixes in commerce modules: refund locking and ceilings, cart line pricing, return refunds, GraphQL guards on payment card data and organization scoping, plus checkout orders that keep cart discounts and taxes.
What is PeopleForce?
PeopleForce expands to frontline workers with a mobile app that skips the corporate mailbox.
PeopleForce is an HR platform for SMEs and mid-market companies shipping steadily across leave management, payroll integrations, performance reviews, electronic signatures, and compliance tooling. The product covers the core HR lifecycle — nothing is conspicuously missing — and recent releases have been incremental expansions rather than architectural changes. EU compliance features suggest a focused effort on European enterprise buyers.
Ever Gauzy vs PeopleForce: editorial side-by-side
Ever Gauzy gives its new inbox a settings UI, with each mailbox linked to an Ever Works agent.
◆ Current state
Gauzy shipped v111.112.0 through v111.113.4 in about 20 minutes on October 17. The one user-facing feature is the first inbox UI: Settings → Inbox → Mailboxes, a My mailbox view, and a link from each mailbox to an Ever Works agent. The rest is a run of tightly scoped fixes in commerce modules: refund locking and ceilings, cart line pricing, return refunds, GraphQL guards on payment card data and organization scoping, plus checkout orders that keep cart discounts and taxes.
◆ Where it's heading
The inbox moved from backend plumbing (inbound pipeline, mailboxes, domains) to its first settings UI within a day, and mailboxes are being wired to Ever Works agents, which ties the inbox to the agents-as-employees work from earlier in the week. In parallel Gauzy is hardening a commerce stack (orders, payments, returns, marketplace settlements) through what look like structured review rounds tagged R2/R3. The versions move so fast that individual bumps say little; the direction lives in the feature commits.
◆ Prediction
Expect the inbox UI to grow past settings into reading and replying to mail, with agents assigned to mailboxes handling messages. The commerce review rounds look likely to continue as more R3 fixes.
PeopleForce expands to frontline workers with a mobile app that skips the corporate mailbox.
◆ Current state
PeopleForce is an HR platform for SMEs and mid-market companies shipping steadily across leave management, payroll integrations, performance reviews, electronic signatures, and compliance tooling. The product covers the core HR lifecycle — nothing is conspicuously missing — and recent releases have been incremental expansions rather than architectural changes. EU compliance features suggest a focused effort on European enterprise buyers.
◆ Where it's heading
The redesigned mobile app targeting frontline employees — phone-number sign-in, no corporate email required — is the clearest directional signal: PeopleForce is moving beyond desk-based HR workflows toward the broader distributed workforce. Combined with payroll system integrations (Optima, enova365) and EU Pay Transparency support, the product is building a compliance-plus-coverage argument for buyers with mixed workforces.
◆ Prediction
Shift scheduling and on-site time tracking are the logical next extensions of the frontline mobile push. EU compliance tooling will likely deepen as the Pay Transparency Directive reporting deadlines tighten through 2026 and 2027.
