Tability vs Harvest

Tability vs Harvest: at a glance
What is Tability?
Tability bolts a dedicated KPI module onto its OKR core.
Tability is broadening beyond pure OKR tracking. This cycle shipped a standalone KPI module with its own imports, targets, and permissions, promoted new Strategy and Dependencies maps to default, and kept investing in audit/governance for larger teams. The KPI work landed as a coordinated launch — module, curated KPI views, and cleanup all in one day.
What is Harvest?
Harvest rebuilt its interface and split off a Premium tier for profitability
Harvest is mid-rollout of 'the new Harvest,' a full interface redesign paired with a paid Premium plan (profitability reporting, activity log, SAML SSO), task-level scheduling in Forecast, and reworked invoice sending. Its changelog reads as marketing-heavy blog posts and SEO articles rather than granular release notes, with several near-duplicate posts per release.
Tability vs Harvest: editorial side-by-side
Tability
6.3PM
Tability bolts a dedicated KPI module onto its OKR core.
◆ Current state
Tability is broadening beyond pure OKR tracking. This cycle shipped a standalone KPI module with its own imports, targets, and permissions, promoted new Strategy and Dependencies maps to default, and kept investing in audit/governance for larger teams. The KPI work landed as a coordinated launch — module, curated KPI views, and cleanup all in one day.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from an OKR-only tool toward a wider strategy-execution platform: separating business-as-usual metrics from goals, deepening alignment visualization (Strategy/Dependencies maps), and adding enterprise governance (audit coverage, forced logout, API defaults). Agent pages gaining bulk actions hint at a parallel automation track.
◆ Prediction
Expect deeper KPI tooling — dashboards, alerting, or explicit KPI-to-OKR linking — plus more agent/automation surface given the new agent bulk actions. Grounded in the KPI module launch and the agent-page changes.
Harvest
2.5PM
Harvest rebuilt its interface and split off a Premium tier for profitability
◆ Current state
Harvest is mid-rollout of 'the new Harvest,' a full interface redesign paired with a paid Premium plan (profitability reporting, activity log, SAML SSO), task-level scheduling in Forecast, and reworked invoice sending. Its changelog reads as marketing-heavy blog posts and SEO articles rather than granular release notes, with several near-duplicate posts per release.
◆ Where it's heading
The redesign is the surface; the deeper move is upmarket. Profitability insights, SSO, and a Premium tier target agencies and larger teams that need margin visibility, not just time entry. Harvest is repositioning from a timesheet tool toward a project-profitability system, with invoicing and Forecast scheduling as supporting pieces.
◆ Prediction
Expect the new interface to finish rolling out to all accounts and more Premium-only reporting to follow the Profitability tier.
