Culture Amp deepens surveys and self-service while extending its AI Coach
Culture Amp's releases split across three lanes: its AI Coach gained Voice Mode (dictation plus a conversational, interruptible mode for role-play); the survey platform got a rebuilt two-panel designer, rating-based question branching, and manager-feedback reporting; and admins got self-service SAML/SSO configuration rolled out to all accounts. Cascading Goals also landed in the window.
Ever Gauzy patches registration UX and table polish while a full payroll module lands beneath the release noise.
Ever Gauzy is running a high-frequency patch cycle—multiple releases per day—addressing UI polish, bug fixes, and minor UX improvements. The v111.42.0 registration improvement (prefilling names from Stripe to avoid clobbering collected data) is the week's only user-visible feature in the top releases. Beneath the patch cadence, v111.41.7 and v111.41.6 shipped a full Payroll module and a Leave Management module respectively, which are the real markers of what this cycle is actually building.

The company is modernizing its core survey and engagement tooling while steadily building AI Coach into a more natural, practice-oriented assistant. The self-service SSO push reduces support dependency and signals enterprise-readiness investment.
Expect more AI Coach surface area now that voice enables richer role-play, and continued migration of admin tasks to self-service.

Ever Gauzy is building out a complete open-source HRM suite, layering payroll and leave management onto its existing time tracking and project management core. The module-level additions (PayrollRun, PayrollItem, Time Off Policies, Official Holidays, Balance Tracking) suggest a deliberate effort to reach feature parity with enterprise HRM systems like BambooHR or Gusto at the open-source tier.
Ever Gauzy will continue module-level feature additions at the same pace—expenses, benefits, and performance appraisals are the natural next targets given the current HRM build-out trajectory.
