Deputy vs Ever Gauzy
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Deputy and Ever Gauzy — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Deputy vs Ever Gauzy: at a glance
What is Deputy?
Deputy leans into Australian payroll compliance and tighter pay-data access.
Deputy's readable recent moves are payroll and permissions: PayDay Super support for Australian employers and new controls over who can see pay rates and costs. Beyond those two, the tracked feed is degraded, with several recent 'entries' being scrape artifacts that carry no real title or content ('newImprovement ... 28/04/2026'). The true shipping picture is partly hidden by this crawl noise.
What is Ever Gauzy?
Ever Gauzy ships many builds a day, hardening security and folding in a Plane PM integration
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.

Deputy leans into Australian payroll compliance and tighter pay-data access.
◆ Current state
Deputy's readable recent moves are payroll and permissions: PayDay Super support for Australian employers and new controls over who can see pay rates and costs. Beyond those two, the tracked feed is degraded, with several recent 'entries' being scrape artifacts that carry no real title or content ('newImprovement ... 28/04/2026'). The true shipping picture is partly hidden by this crawl noise.
◆ Where it's heading
What's legible points at compliance and access-control hardening for regulated payroll markets across AU, UK, and US enterprise. The recurring theme is trust: who can see sensitive pay data and meeting statutory reporting rules. The feed-quality problem should be fixed before reading much into cadence.
◆ Prediction
Likely continued Australian payroll-compliance work around PayDay Super, plus more granular role and permission controls. Confidence is limited by the number of unparseable entries in the feed.

◆ Current state
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.
◆ Where it's heading
Two directions stand out: a move toward stronger multi-organization architecture (org-scoped JWTs) and security hardening across deploys, and an expansion of scope by absorbing Plane as a PM module. Together they point at Gauzy consolidating into a broader, multi-tenant business suite.
◆ Prediction
Expect the rapid release train to continue, with further Plane integration depth and security follow-ups. Clients should prepare for the new org-scoped token structure as it propagates through the 111.x line.
