What is Ever Gauzy?
Ever Gauzy finds that Documents uploads never worked on S3 storage, and fixes it.
Ever Gauzy shipped ten patch tags over October 25–26. The notable fixes: Documents uploads now work on S3-family storage (they never had), team invitations are limited to the team's managers and their codes are hidden, and the desktop agent respects the organisation's screenshot interval. The rest is Nest 11 route syntax, CI and dependency-upgrade regressions.
What is Spark Hire?
Spark Hire is wiring the job description into every AI judgement it makes about a candidate
Spark Hire runs interviewing and recruiting across two products, Meet and Recruit, and has been shipping steadily through August. The AI work is the centre of gravity: an AI Notetaker, suggested interview question sets, and AI Video Review now rating candidates against the job description and scorecard with visible rationale. Around it sits pipeline hygiene — duplicate application handling, lead pipeline movement, a unified navigation that folds Assessments and AI under Settings — and now configurable application forms.

Ever Gauzy finds that Documents uploads never worked on S3 storage, and fixes it.
◆ Current state
Ever Gauzy shipped ten patch tags over October 25–26. The notable fixes: Documents uploads now work on S3-family storage (they never had), team invitations are limited to the team's managers and their codes are hidden, and the desktop agent respects the organisation's screenshot interval. The rest is Nest 11 route syntax, CI and dependency-upgrade regressions.
◆ Where it's heading
After the project board and project view work earlier in October, Gauzy is in a regression-cleanup phase following its October 13 dependency upgrade, with numbered PR sweeps landing several tags a day. Permission tightening on teams and invitations runs through the fixes.
◆ Prediction
Expect more sweep waves fixing upgrade regressions before new features return.
Spark Hire is wiring the job description into every AI judgement it makes about a candidate
◆ Current state
Spark Hire runs interviewing and recruiting across two products, Meet and Recruit, and has been shipping steadily through August. The AI work is the centre of gravity: an AI Notetaker, suggested interview question sets, and AI Video Review now rating candidates against the job description and scorecard with visible rationale. Around it sits pipeline hygiene — duplicate application handling, lead pipeline movement, a unified navigation that folds Assessments and AI under Settings — and now configurable application forms.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is consistent: take a judgement a recruiter makes by hand and give the model the same context the recruiter has, then show its reasoning rather than just its score. Ratings derive from the job description when no scorecard exists, and every rated factor expands to the evidence behind it. The non-AI releases are mostly about controlling what enters the funnel — customisable forms for candidates, referrers and internal applicants, duplicate suppression, careers-site configuration without code. Both threads point at reducing the volume a human has to read.
◆ Prediction
Application form fields and AI evaluation are converging on the same data, so expect the collected form answers to start feeding candidate ratings directly rather than being reviewed separately.
