Notion is turning Custom Agents into event-driven workers with their own runtime and billing.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ganttic and Aha! — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ganttic's feed is mostly blog and case studies, with one real shipped update: mobile redesign and view tracking.
Most crawled entries are Ganttic's content-marketing blog and customer case studies, but the feed also carries genuine product updates — the Q1 roundup of the redesigned Planner mobile app, task coloring, a Single Project Gantt View, and an expanded History Log. So the picture is mixed: heavy editorial output around resource scheduling, with occasional real release notes mixed in. Where the product moves, it is sharpening mobile usability and change-tracking transparency.
Aha! is teaching its AI builder to test its own output before anyone ships it.
Aha! is running two tracks at once: incremental hardening of the core planning suite, and a fast-moving AI layer branded Elle and Aha! Builder. The Builder work has moved past generation into validation — virtual users now pressure-test AI-built apps for friction before deployment. The document-management work lands on the other track, making long specs navigable.

So the picture is mixed: heavy editorial output around resource scheduling, with occasional real release notes mixed in. Where the product moves, it is sharpening mobile usability and change-tracking transparency.
The observable product thread is incremental polish: better mobile planning, more granular audit/history logging, and clearer views. The blog and case studies (ports, labs, construction) signal a push toward operations-heavy, equipment-and-people scheduling verticals. Expect continued usability and transparency refinements rather than category-redefining moves.
The next releases likely continue the mobile and history-log line and lean further into resource-heavy verticals. The blog's AI-resource-management posts hint at AI features, but no shipped AI capability is visible yet.
Aha! is running two tracks at once: incremental hardening of the core planning suite, and a fast-moving AI layer branded Elle and Aha! Builder. The Builder work has moved past generation into validation — virtual users now pressure-test AI-built apps for friction before deployment. The document-management work lands on the other track, making long specs navigable.
The interesting move is that Aha! is closing the loop on its own AI output rather than only widening what it can generate. Virtual user testing and AI-drawn user-journey whiteboards both sit at the review stage, not the authoring stage. Interleaved with that is a steady line of thought-leadership posts arguing that time saved is the wrong AI metric — a positioning stance that matches where the product is investing.
Expect the validation layer to extend from generated apps back into the planning artifacts themselves, and for virtual-user output to feed the ideas portal. The entries don't indicate pricing or packaging for the Builder tier, so how this is sold remains unclear.
