HoneyBook vs My Hours: editorial side-by-side

H5.0

HoneyBook's tracked feed is its small-business blog, not its product changelog.

◆ Current state

HoneyBook's tracked feed is its small-business advice blog — client-acquisition guides, industry how-tos (wedding venues, photography), and competitor-comparison posts such as Bonsai alternatives. No entry in this window describes a change to the HoneyBook clientflow product itself. Product direction is not observable here.

◆ Where it's heading

The feed reads as consistent SEO and top-of-funnel content for service-business owners, not a release log. Cadence is editorial, aimed at organic acquisition. The product's actual roadmap cannot be inferred from these posts.

◆ Prediction

Expect more of the same buyer-intent and how-to content; surfacing real product moves would require crawling HoneyBook's product/release notes instead of the blog.

M5.0

My Hours 10.3 makes invoice dates editable and lets invoices carry a Detailed report.

◆ Current state

10.3 makes the issue date editable on draft invoices, adds account and per-client default due dates, and lets users edit the email subject, preview the email and attach a Detailed report when sending. Daily Track gets a cleaner layout and filters get a redesign. It follows 10.2's lifetime project profitability, 10.1's audit log and 10.0's timesheet periods and locking.

◆ Where it's heading

My Hours keeps shipping every one to three weeks, and the work is concentrated on the billing end: invoices, profitability and approval controls. It is moving from a time tracker toward the system agencies use to bill clients.

◆ Prediction

Expect more invoicing controls, such as recurring invoices or payment tracking, given four straight releases touching billing. The September MCP server has had no follow-up in these entries.
