My Hours vs Plaky: editorial side-by-side
My Hours
5.0PM
My Hours 10.2 adds lifetime project profitability, including flat-fee work.
◆ Current state
10.2 adds an all-time Balance column that shows lifetime project profitability, flat-fee projects included, and Project overview now shows Balance and Margin (all time). Clients can have multiple contacts for invoices and scheduled reports, and normal users can complete their assigned tasks if a Pro setting allows it. Those changes follow 10.0's configurable timesheet periods and locking and 10.1's account-wide audit log.
◆ Where it's heading
My Hours is moving from time capture toward the money view of a project, on top of the controls finance and HR teams expect: periods, locks, approvals and a record of who changed what. Invoicing keeps getting deeper alongside that. The Claude connector remains a secondary interface, and nothing has been added to it since launch.
◆ Prediction
Expect more profitability reporting built on the all-time figures, along with approval and export features on top of timesheet periods. The entries don't show where the MCP integration goes next.
Plaky
5.0PM
Plaky's feed is best-PM-software listicles and Trello comparisons.
◆ Current state
Every entry is SEO content: best PM apps, capacity-planning tools, and Plaky versus Trello. Plaky is CAKE.com's project-management tool, and the feed exists to rank for software-comparison searches, often placing Plaky first. No product changes appear.
◆ Where it's heading
Plaky is running a comparison-content playbook to capture PM-software search demand. The visible arc is traffic acquisition, not product evolution.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued listicle and competitor-comparison content; actual feature news will need a separate release source.
