Double vs Komga: at a glance
What is Double?
Double turns a recorded Chrome session into an agent that repeats the task.
Double is an accounting-practice platform built around the Ask Double assistant. Autoclose, an October 29 add-on at $500 a month, lets agents run the month-end close, and November 5 extended Ask Double to allocations, bank matching and 1099 prep. The November 12 release lets accountants record a task in the Double Chrome extension and turn it into an agent, adds bank feeds for US Xero clients, per-user caps on AI credits and new permission choices for agent actions.
What is Komga?
Komga patches 1.30 with security headers while the NextUI beta settles.
Komga ships every one to two weeks, and nearly all feature work lands in NextUI, the rewritten web interface at /next. 1.30.0 brings its fourth beta: editing several series or books at once, reordering read lists and collections, and persisted filters, sort and library sub-views. HTTP sessions now default to database storage. The patches in between fixed page counts, KOReader hashes and NextUI navigation.

8.8COLLAB
Double turns a recorded Chrome session into an agent that repeats the task.
◆ Current state
Double is an accounting-practice platform built around the Ask Double assistant. Autoclose, an October 29 add-on at $500 a month, lets agents run the month-end close, and November 5 extended Ask Double to allocations, bank matching and 1099 prep. The November 12 release lets accountants record a task in the Double Chrome extension and turn it into an agent, adds bank feeds for US Xero clients, per-user caps on AI credits and new permission choices for agent actions.
◆ Where it's heading
Double is moving from an assistant that answers to agents that do recurring work, and is now letting firms create those agents by showing rather than configuring. Usage caps, permission levels and a web-browsing switch that is off by default show it adding controls as agents get more reach.
◆ Prediction
Expect more agent templates and recorder support for other client systems, plus wider Xero coverage after the US bank feeds launch.
Komga
5.0COLLAB
Komga patches 1.30 with security headers while the NextUI beta settles.
◆ Current state
Komga ships every one to two weeks, and nearly all feature work lands in NextUI, the rewritten web interface at /next. 1.30.0 brings its fourth beta: editing several series or books at once, reordering read lists and collections, and persisted filters, sort and library sub-views. HTTP sessions now default to database storage. The patches in between fixed page counts, KOReader hashes and NextUI navigation.
◆ Where it's heading
Each NextUI beta closes a gap with the old interface: metadata editing in the second, contextual navigation in the third, bulk editing and list organization in the fourth. Notable Entities metadata in 1.29 already exists only in NextUI, so the new interface is becoming the place where features appear first.
◆ Prediction
The remaining gaps look small enough that a later 1.3x release may make NextUI the default interface. Until then, expect more betas every few weeks with patch releases between them.
