Ashby
Ashby keeps extending conditional forms and closes small gaps in interview scheduling.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Jobvite and Leapsome — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Thought leadership on AI in hiring, with no product surface in sight
Jobvite's feed remains editorial: podcast recaps, candidate-experience research and essays on AI in hiring. The newest posts lean closer to the product, covering a connected path from interview to onboarding and results from The Hackett Group's 2026 Talent Acquisition Vendor Assessment, but neither describes a change to the applicant tracking system. There are still no release notes, feature entries or version tags.
Leapsome's feed keeps filling with hiring guides, not release notes.
The tracked feed for Leapsome is its marketing blog, not release notes. On November 9 it published a batch of guides at the same minute: training tracking software, floating holidays, succession planning, severance agreements, talent acquisition, team performance, payroll journal entries and co-employment. None describes a product change.

The publishing strategy is aimed at talent-acquisition leaders rather than users of the software, and it has settled into a rhythm of research-backed posts plus podcast recaps. Where the content does engage with product questions, it is about the category — AI on both sides of hiring, the gap between candidate experience and perception — not about what Jobvite shipped. Readers watching this feed for release signal will not find it here.
Expect more posts tying Jobvite to hiring-process problems, at a slower pace than the weekly rhythm of the summer. Actual product news would have to arrive through a channel this feed does not carry.

The content has shifted toward recruiting topics, but the feed still carries no product signal. Publish dates cluster in batches, so they say little about release activity.
The entries do not show the next product move; more batches of HR guides are the only visible pattern.
