Workyard bolts embedded fintech and a plain-English time assistant onto its construction workforce app
Workyard is expanding beyond time tracking on two axes: embedded fintech (Business Checking, expense cards with automatic balance top-up, in-app ACH funding, QuickBooks expense export) and AI (a Time Assistant that cleans up a full pay period of time cards from plain-English instructions). Core workflow features — professional PDF reports, QuickBooks overtime mapping, Smart Forms — continue in parallel.
Ever Gauzy ships many builds a day, hardening security and folding in a Plane PM integration
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.

Core workflow features — professional PDF reports, QuickBooks overtime mapping, Smart Forms — continue in parallel.
The direction is a workforce-operations platform for construction that owns the money movement (banking, cards, payroll export) and is layering AI onto its most tedious admin tasks. The fintech buildout is deepening from spending toward automated cash management, while the Time Assistant signals natural-language automation of back-office review. Both reduce the manual click-work that defines the category.
Expect the Time Assistant's natural-language editing to extend beyond time cards to other review-heavy surfaces, and the Business Checking/expense-card stack to gain more automated cash-management controls.
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.
Two directions stand out: a move toward stronger multi-organization architecture (org-scoped JWTs) and security hardening across deploys, and an expansion of scope by absorbing Plane as a PM module. Together they point at Gauzy consolidating into a broader, multi-tenant business suite.
Expect the rapid release train to continue, with further Plane integration depth and security follow-ups. Clients should prepare for the new org-scoped token structure as it propagates through the 111.x line.
