What is Redocly?

Redocly fixes EU-region SSO and log-retention limits in three platform releases in one day.

Redocly ships platform builds daily. After renaming `reunite` to `platform` in config 0.70.0 and wiring it through Platform v2026-10-31.1, three November 2 releases fixed SSO failing for EU-hosted projects without `access.residency`, an organization switcher that ignored SSO-required orgs, runtime logs showing more history than the plan allows, and a hidden team-manager list after plan downgrades.

What is Timely?

Timely adds seat visibility and per-period budgets in a steady run of weekly releases.

Timely is an AI time tracking platform built around AutoSheet and a set of project integrations. Late September added per-period recurring budgets, more reliable Trello and Jira syncing, a subscription view of active seats and pending invites, and finer report filters. October followed with timeline edits, Cmd+K search, away-time prompts, bulk editing and compliance views for team leads.

6.3

Redocly fixes EU-region SSO and log-retention limits in three platform releases in one day.

◆ Current state

Redocly ships platform builds daily. After renaming `reunite` to `platform` in config 0.70.0 and wiring it through Platform v2026-10-31.1, three November 2 releases fixed SSO failing for EU-hosted projects without `access.residency`, an organization switcher that ignored SSO-required orgs, runtime logs showing more history than the plan allows, and a hidden team-manager list after plan downgrades.

◆ Where it's heading

Recent work concentrates on access control and plan enforcement around SSO, data residency and RBAC, next to the rename and the AI agent's support-desk features. The fixes suggest region-specific hosting and plan tiers are still being hardened.

◆ Prediction

Expect more access and plan-boundary fixes in daily platform builds, and further support-desk features for the agent; when the `reunite` key will stop working is unclear.

◆ Current state

Timely is an AI time tracking platform built around AutoSheet and a set of project integrations.

October followed with timeline edits, Cmd+K search, away-time prompts, bulk editing and compliance views for team leads.

◆ Where it's heading

Timely ships weekly, splitting work between admin and compliance tooling and the day-to-day timeline. Integrations get reliability fixes rather than new connectors.

◆ Prediction

Expect more admin and compliance controls for team leads in the coming weekly notes.
