Peoplebox vs Ever Gauzy: at a glance
What is Peoplebox?
Peoplebox's visible changelog covers its 2020 founding arc — OKRs, surveys, and 1-on-1s shipped as the three pillars in three months.
The changelog data available stops in mid-2020, so the visible history is Peoplebox's early product arc rather than its current state. In that window, the team shipped its three core pillars in rapid succession: real-time 1-on-1 collaboration in March, OKRs in June, and Employee Engagement Surveys in late May. Surrounding releases polished the homepage, action items, and reminders. The cadence reads like an early-stage HR product racing to assemble a complete suite.
What is Ever Gauzy?
Ever Gauzy adds full payroll and leave management modules, integrates Ever Async workspaces — expanding from project tool to HR suite
v111.42.3 is a substantial release: it integrates tenant-owned Ever Async workspaces into Gauzy, ships a full payroll module (PayrollRun, PayrollItem entities with service layer), a full leave management module (time-off policies, official holidays, balance tracking), a redesigned HR dashboard, and the ability to switch a timesheet's project after creation. The MCP server fix in v111.42.5 makes tool input schemas JSON Schema compatible, enabling MCP tools/list to work correctly.
Peoplebox vs Ever Gauzy: editorial side-by-side
Peoplebox's visible changelog covers its 2020 founding arc — OKRs, surveys, and 1-on-1s shipped as the three pillars in three months.
◆ Current state
The changelog data available stops in mid-2020, so the visible history is Peoplebox's early product arc rather than its current state. In that window, the team shipped its three core pillars in rapid succession: real-time 1-on-1 collaboration in March, OKRs in June, and Employee Engagement Surveys in late May. Surrounding releases polished the homepage, action items, and reminders. The cadence reads like an early-stage HR product racing to assemble a complete suite.
◆ Where it's heading
Within the visible window, Peoplebox is moving from a 1-on-1-focused tool toward a full performance-management trio (1-on-1s + OKRs + surveys). The COVID-era timing of the realtime collaboration release suggests product priorities were shaped by remote-work demand. Note: the absence of more recent entries means anything about the product's 2025–26 direction would be speculation; check the product website or live changelog for current state.
◆ Prediction
Within the entries shown, the next logical move was tighter integration between the three pillars — OKRs that pull review data, surveys that feed 1-on-1 talking points. Whether that happened post-2020 isn't visible here.
Ever Gauzy adds full payroll and leave management modules, integrates Ever Async workspaces — expanding from project tool to HR suite
◆ Current state
v111.42.3 is a substantial release: it integrates tenant-owned Ever Async workspaces into Gauzy, ships a full payroll module (PayrollRun, PayrollItem entities with service layer), a full leave management module (time-off policies, official holidays, balance tracking), a redesigned HR dashboard, and the ability to switch a timesheet's project after creation. The MCP server fix in v111.42.5 makes tool input schemas JSON Schema compatible, enabling MCP tools/list to work correctly.
◆ Where it's heading
Ever Gauzy is systematically completing an HR suite on top of its project management foundation: payroll, leave management, and attendance tracking are now in place. The Ever Async workspace integration hints at a future where Gauzy manages the human side (time, pay, leave) while Ever Async handles real-time collaboration — a division of labor within the ever.co stack. The MCP server fix opens the platform to AI agent orchestration for HR data.
◆ Prediction
The MCP surface combined with the HR data model positions Gauzy for an 'AI HR assistant' feature — querying leave balances, approving timesheets, or generating payroll reports via an AI agent. Expect that surface to be announced once the MCP tool schemas stabilize.
