A side-by-side editorial comparison of Everhour and My Hours — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
A listicle factory for time-tracking search terms — nine of ten posts are vendor roundups.
Everhour's feed is almost entirely comparison content: best timesheet software, top time recording apps, digital time clocks, time entry systems, workforce management tools. The posts are excerpt-only and follow one template — define the category, note that the right pick depends on workflow, then rank vendors. A single productivity-habits essay breaks the pattern. Nothing here documents a change to Everhour itself.
My Hours launches a Claude MCP connector, making AI-driven time logging a first-class workflow
My Hours is a time tracking platform with a strong invoicing and reporting core, now shipping in two distinct directions: an AI integration layer (Claude MCP connector, Sep 3) and expanded compliance-friendly tracking features (break tracking with payroll calculations, attendance reports, budget alerts). The September releases represent the most capability-dense period in the window, following a patch-heavy summer. The MCP connector runs on Keboola's Cloudflare infrastructure — zero install, OAuth-only.

The keyword targets are drifting outward from Everhour's core of project-based billable time toward attendance, payroll, shift scheduling, and employee monitoring. Several posts explicitly separate simple clock-in and attendance from project reporting and automatic capture, which is the segmentation an incumbent writes when it wants traffic from adjacent categories it may not serve directly. Whether the product is following the content into workforce management is not visible here.
Expect continued roundup coverage pushing further into payroll, attendance, and scheduling keywords, with periodic refreshes of the same pages for the new year. Product direction would need a real changelog source to read.

The Claude MCP connector signals a clear strategic bet: My Hours wants to be the time tracking tool you interact with through AI conversation rather than through a timer UI. The infrastructure choice (remote server on Cloudflare, not a local install) removes adoption friction, making it viable for teams already using Claude. Parallel development on attendance reports and break tracking points toward a compliance and HR use case — overtime tracking, payroll-ready break records — that broadens My Hours beyond professional services billing.
The MCP integration will expand to cover write operations beyond time logging — budget tracking, invoice creation, and report export are the most obvious additions. The attendance report launched in August suggests a near-term push toward HR and payroll integrations, potentially positioning My Hours against more compliance-focused tools like Harvest or Timely for regulated industries.
