Ashby vs Ever Gauzy: at a glance
What is Ashby?
Ashby summarizes a candidate's history with citations inside its Chrome sourcing extension.
Ashby's recent releases split between governance controls and AI help for recruiters. In the last week it added Audit Logs, org-wide AI Notetaker settings, configurable data-retention triggers and private-by-default internal interview invites. On the AI side, the Chrome extension now summarizes a candidate's past applications, interviews and outreach, with links to the source records.
What is Ever Gauzy?
Ever Gauzy follows account deletion with nine same-day patches carrying project archiving.
Ever Gauzy shipped 111.142.0 on October 28 with self-serve account deletion and telemetry redaction, then cut nine patch tags the same day. The substantive ones carry archive and unarchive for projects and teams, per-task sync scope that keeps tasks private to the platform, a redesigned project dashboard and proposal details, and email links restricted to allowed origins. The rest are egress-audit baselines and Plane plugin bumps adding status-less projects and employee subscriptions.

Ashby summarizes a candidate's history with citations inside its Chrome sourcing extension.
◆ Current state
Ashby's recent releases split between governance controls and AI help for recruiters. In the last week it added Audit Logs, org-wide AI Notetaker settings, configurable data-retention triggers and private-by-default internal interview invites. On the AI side, the Chrome extension now summarizes a candidate's past applications, interviews and outreach, with links to the source records.
◆ Where it's heading
Admin controls keep arriving at a steady clip, which points to Ashby selling harder into larger, compliance-minded recruiting teams. Its AI features are being placed inside existing workflows, such as notes, sourcing and history, and cite their sources rather than standing alone.
◆ Prediction
Expect more admin-level defaults and policy settings for AI features, following the org-wide Notetaker controls and retention configuration.
Ever Gauzy follows account deletion with nine same-day patches carrying project archiving.
◆ Current state
Ever Gauzy shipped 111.142.0 on October 28 with self-serve account deletion and telemetry redaction, then cut nine patch tags the same day.

The rest are egress-audit baselines and Plane plugin bumps adding status-less projects and employee subscriptions.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is shipping in waves: a large stage merge, then a string of small tags that move it to production. Two threads run through October: tidying the project and task model (archiving, sync scope, a Plane integration) and privacy and compliance work (account deletion, egress audits, DPIA links).
◆ Prediction
Expect more Plane plugin bumps and UI redesigns from the same contributors, plus further egress-audit and compliance tags as account deletion settles in production.
