Ellie Planner
Solo-built daily planner adds an AI assistant and more calendar/tool integrations.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Favro and Tability — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Planning tool ships small collaboration and dashboard refinements, cadence slowing.
Favro is a project-planning and collaboration tool shipping weekly release notes that are mostly incremental: dashboards leaving early access, card sharing via link, field collapse/expand controls, and a stream of chart and automation bug fixes. The captured feed slows through late 2025.
Tability bolts a dedicated KPI module onto its OKR core.
Tability is broadening beyond pure OKR tracking. This cycle shipped a standalone KPI module with its own imports, targets, and permissions, promoted new Strategy and Dependencies maps to default, and kept investing in audit/governance for larger teams. The KPI work landed as a coordinated launch — module, curated KPI views, and cleanup all in one day.

The work reads as steady maintenance and small usability gains rather than directional bets, with dashboards and card sharing the most substantive recent additions. Release frequency in the captured window thins over time.
Expect continued incremental card and dashboard refinements; the entries don't signal a larger strategic move on the horizon.

The product is moving from an OKR-only tool toward a wider strategy-execution platform: separating business-as-usual metrics from goals, deepening alignment visualization (Strategy/Dependencies maps), and adding enterprise governance (audit coverage, forced logout, API defaults). Agent pages gaining bulk actions hint at a parallel automation track.
Expect deeper KPI tooling — dashboards, alerting, or explicit KPI-to-OKR linking — plus more agent/automation surface given the new agent bulk actions. Grounded in the KPI module launch and the agent-page changes.
