HavaHR
HavaHR ships a one-step MCP install, putting Malaysia payroll data inside any AI agent.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Frappe HR and Ever Gauzy — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Frappe HR ships two version lines in lockstep and lets an LLM write the release notes
Every release is published twice — a v15 patch and a v16 minor, usually minutes apart with overlapping content — so the changelog reads as duplicated until you notice the version prefixes. The last month is payroll and leave accuracy work: employer contribution types on salary components, carried-forward days folded into leave balance, formula-based components holding their amount through unpaid leave. Each entry discloses that the notes were summarized by an LLM from the code changes and PR descriptions.
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 work is concentrated where an HR system loses trust: leave balances that do not reconcile, salary slips that mis-name or mis-total, reports scoped to the wrong company. v16 adds surface — a Contract section and Holiday List Assignment on the Employee form, a Schedule Interview dialog replacing a bare create button — while v15 stays corrective. Anonymous feature and setup telemetry, opt-in via System Settings, appeared in v16.14.0, which suggests the team wants usage data to aim that work.
The pattern of surfacing related records directly on the Employee form has now covered contracts and holiday lists, so expect more of the Connections tab to be filled in rather than a new module.

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.
