What is Atarim?

Atarim's AI experts now propose changes to live pages as drafts, and the app runs on phones.

Atarim 5.1.4 extends the draft-first rule from new pages to edits on live pages: an AI specialist's fix comes back as a draft copy with a preview link, and the task waits in Pending review until a person approves it. Atarim now also works on phones and tablets and installs as an app. The previous release, 5.1.3, rebuilt Boards with a timer on every stage.

What is My Hours?

My Hours patches XLS timesheet uploads days after adding its audit log.

10.0 introduced configurable timesheet periods with submission, reminders, validation and period-based locking. 10.1 added an account-wide audit log and bulk editing of locked logs, and 10.1.1 fixes XLS timesheet uploads on the Track page. Those changes sit on top of a summer of attendance reports, unpaid breaks, budget alerts, invoicing upgrades and a remote MCP server that lets Claude read and log time.

Atarim vs My Hours: editorial side-by-side

A5.0

Atarim's AI experts now propose changes to live pages as drafts, and the app runs on phones.

◆ Current state

Atarim 5.1.4 extends the draft-first rule from new pages to edits on live pages: an AI specialist's fix comes back as a draft copy with a preview link, and the task waits in Pending review until a person approves it. Atarim now also works on phones and tablets and installs as an app. The previous release, 5.1.3, rebuilt Boards with a timer on every stage.

◆ Where it's heading

Atarim keeps pairing more AI autonomy with more human control: readable memory in 5.1.2, stage clocks in 5.1.3, and now mandatory approval on live changes. The mobile app moves that approval step to wherever the agency owner is, which fits a model where AI does the work and people sign off.

◆ Prediction

Expect approval and review to tie into Boards, for example pending AI drafts showing up as a stage with its own clock.

M5.0

My Hours patches XLS timesheet uploads days after adding its audit log.

◆ Current state

10.0 introduced configurable timesheet periods with submission, reminders, validation and period-based locking. 10.1 added an account-wide audit log and bulk editing of locked logs, and 10.1.1 fixes XLS timesheet uploads on the Track page. Those changes sit on top of a summer of attendance reports, unpaid breaks, budget alerts, invoicing upgrades and a remote MCP server that lets Claude read and log time.

◆ Where it's heading

My Hours is building the controls finance and HR teams expect from payroll-grade time data: periods, locks, approvals and a record of who changed what. Invoicing keeps getting deeper alongside that. The Claude connector remains a secondary interface, and nothing has been added to it since launch.

◆ Prediction

Expect further approval-workflow and export features built on the timesheet periods and audit log, such as payroll exports or multi-step approvals. The entries don't show where the MCP integration goes next.
