HiBob vs Ever Gauzy: at a glance
What is HiBob?
HiBob keeps widening its public API, now with bulk reads of custom employee tables
HiBob's changelog since September is a run of partner-facing and integrator APIs: background checks and assessments inside Bob Hiring, an Applicant API feeding Pending Hires, a Retirement Partners API on US Payroll, and steady Employee data API coverage. The latest addition lets integrations read one custom table for many employees in a single paginated call instead of looping per employee.
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.

HiBob keeps widening its public API, now with bulk reads of custom employee tables
◆ Current state
HiBob's changelog since September is a run of partner-facing and integrator APIs: background checks and assessments inside Bob Hiring, an Applicant API feeding Pending Hires, a Retirement Partners API on US Payroll, and steady Employee data API coverage. The latest addition lets integrations read one custom table for many employees in a single paginated call instead of looping per employee.
◆ Where it's heading
The Employee data API is being filled in table by table: CRUD for built-in tables in August, schema metadata in early November, and now bulk reads for custom tables. Alongside the Marketplace OAuth partner APIs, the direction is making Bob the system other HR tools read from and write into without workarounds.
◆ Prediction
Bulk endpoints are likely to spread to the remaining per-employee reads or to writes on custom tables, since the new endpoint explicitly excludes out-of-the-box tables and write paths.
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.
