What is Soon?
Soon is rebuilding its auto-scheduler and AI assistant on a steady SMB-to-enterprise track.
Soon ships small, focused workforce-management releases roughly every two to four weeks. Recent work centers on the auto-scheduler (Activity Scheduler V2 with intraday and baseline-aware logic) and the AI assistant (v2 with real-time schedule insights), alongside table-stakes enterprise features like SCIM directory sync, SLA/AHT lines on workload graphs, and a file-upload path for converting outside schedules into Soon schedules.
What is Ever Gauzy?
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.

Soon

Soon is rebuilding its auto-scheduler and AI assistant on a steady SMB-to-enterprise track.
◆ Current state
Soon ships small, focused workforce-management releases roughly every two to four weeks. Recent work centers on the auto-scheduler (Activity Scheduler V2 with intraday and baseline-aware logic) and the AI assistant (v2 with real-time schedule insights), alongside table-stakes enterprise features like SCIM directory sync, SLA/AHT lines on workload graphs, and a file-upload path for converting outside schedules into Soon schedules.
◆ Where it's heading
Three threads run in parallel. The scheduling engine is being matured — V2 of both Activity Scheduler and the Intraday Solver — to handle real contact-center constraints. The AI assistant is being made reliable enough to lean on for live schedule queries. Enterprise readiness is being filled in (SCIM, account setup, deletion flows). Each release is small, but the direction is consistent.
◆ Prediction
Expect the AI assistant and the scheduler to converge — natural-language scheduling moves rather than just queries. Continued enterprise-feature buildout (audit logs, SSO refinements, role granularity) is likely as Soon competes for larger contact-center accounts.

◆ Where it's heading
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.
◆ Prediction
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.
