What is Deputy?

Deputy is hardening pay-data permissions while Australian super rules claim release slots.

Deputy's recent work splits between access control and Australian payroll compliance. A rebuilt access-level system in late April introduced custom roles with finer-grained control over what people can see and do, followed in June by permissions that restrict visibility of pay rates and labour costs. July's release adapted Deputy Payroll to PayDay Super, the Australian employer reporting requirement. Scheduling picked up one visible change: the open/empty shift row can be pinned while managers scroll.

What is Ever Gauzy?

Ever Gauzy links time logs to invoice lines so the same hours are never billed twice.

Ever Gauzy ships many small tags a day, most built and reviewed with AI code-review bots. November 13 alone brought seven tags: invoice lines now record the time logs they bill, with a filter that leaves out time already invoiced, chat suggests team names for new channels, and task automations react when a linked GitHub pull request or issue closes. The rest are fixes for date-only due dates, chat on Postgres and MySQL collations.

Deputy vs Ever Gauzy: editorial side-by-side

Deputy logo0.0

Deputy is hardening pay-data permissions while Australian super rules claim release slots.

◆ Current state

Deputy's recent work splits between access control and Australian payroll compliance. A rebuilt access-level system in late April introduced custom roles with finer-grained control over what people can see and do, followed in June by permissions that restrict visibility of pay rates and labour costs. July's release adapted Deputy Payroll to PayDay Super, the Australian employer reporting requirement. Scheduling picked up one visible change: the open/empty shift row can be pinned while managers scroll.

◆ Where it's heading

Permissions are the throughline — custom roles first, then sensitive pay data placed behind them — which is the shape of a product answering harder questions from larger, multi-site customers. Compliance work anchors Deputy to the Australian market its payroll product serves, and that regulatory calendar will keep taking release capacity. Scheduling itself, the core surface, is getting refinement rather than rethinking. The feed also carries the same release twice under slightly different titles, so apparent cadence runs ahead of actual shipping.

◆ Prediction

Expect further permission scoping across cost and pay surfaces, and follow-up work as PayDay Super reporting beds in. The entries show nothing about roadmap outside Australia and scheduling.

E7.5

Ever Gauzy links time logs to invoice lines so the same hours are never billed twice.

◆ Current state

Ever Gauzy ships many small tags a day, most built and reviewed with AI code-review bots. November 13 alone brought seven tags: invoice lines now record the time logs they bill, with a filter that leaves out time already invoiced, chat suggests team names for new channels, and task automations react when a linked GitHub pull request or issue closes. The rest are fixes for date-only due dates, chat on Postgres and MySQL collations.

◆ Where it's heading

The platform is tying its separate modules together: time tracking to invoicing, chat to teams, and tasks to GitHub events. The fast tag cadence means each feature arrives with several follow-up fix tags the same day.

◆ Prediction

Expect more task-automation triggers from external tools after the GitHub closed-link event, and invoicing work that uses the new billed-time links.
