What is Ever Teams?

Three tags in one day: a workspace UI rewrite, then two rounds of repairing it.

v0.136.0 landed a workspace UI modernization, and the same day produced v0.136.1 and v0.136.2 correcting it — global admins locked out of reports, settings scroll height lost, avatars rendering empty or mangled when the image source is route-relative or a Blob. The preceding tags follow the same shape: v0.135.0 added build versions to the footer and spent six commits fixing that footer, and v0.134.0's demand-driven startup rewrite carried a long run of preservation fixes across auth, transport and scoped state.

What is Asana?

Asana embeds AI into Slack threads and closes the rich-text gap with Notion

Asana spent the past two months closing content fidelity gaps: rich text in custom fields, syntax highlighting, and text highlighting address years of complaints from technical users who needed more than plain text. Threaded Comments resolves a structural UX problem in task conversations that had teams scrolling through flat comment chains. HIPAA compliance for AsanaGov extends the enterprise compliance footprint into regulated healthcare workflows.

Ever Teams vs Asana: editorial side-by-side

E5.0

Three tags in one day: a workspace UI rewrite, then two rounds of repairing it.

◆ Current state

v0.136.0 landed a workspace UI modernization, and the same day produced v0.136.1 and v0.136.2 correcting it — global admins locked out of reports, settings scroll height lost, avatars rendering empty or mangled when the image source is route-relative or a Blob. The preceding tags follow the same shape: v0.135.0 added build versions to the footer and spent six commits fixing that footer, and v0.134.0's demand-driven startup rewrite carried a long run of preservation fixes across auth, transport and scoped state.

◆ Where it's heading

The release train mints a version number per merged pull request, so the tag count tracks development activity rather than user-visible change. The work underneath is real — a startup rewrite in v0.134.0, a workspace UI pass in v0.136.0 — but each lands incomplete and is repaired within hours. The account-scoped assistant history and hardened localized assistant controls in v0.136.0 are the first sign of the in-app assistant being treated as per-account state rather than a shared surface.

◆ Prediction

Expect further 0.136.x patches as review findings against the new workspace UI surface. The assistant scoping work suggests that surface is next in line for the same pass.

Asana embeds AI into Slack threads and closes the rich-text gap with Notion

◆ Current state

Asana spent the past two months closing content fidelity gaps: rich text in custom fields, syntax highlighting, and text highlighting address years of complaints from technical users who needed more than plain text. Threaded Comments resolves a structural UX problem in task conversations that had teams scrolling through flat comment chains. HIPAA compliance for AsanaGov extends the enterprise compliance footprint into regulated healthcare workflows.

◆ Where it's heading

The @mention Asana in Slack feature is the clearest direction signal: Asana wants to be the task layer that captures work from wherever conversations happen. Combined with Pages (the upgraded Notes), Asana is positioning as a full workspace — docs, tasks, timesheets, and AI — rather than a pure project manager. The parallel enterprise compliance push (HIPAA, multiple approvers in timesheets) suggests a deliberate motion to lock in regulated verticals while AI handles casual capture.

◆ Prediction

The Slack integration will expand to include status updates and project summaries without leaving Slack. Asana's AI is likely to gain ambient capture — parsing thread context automatically rather than requiring explicit @mention — as the product competes with Linear and ClickUp for AI-first teams.
