What is Double?
Double is turning its accounting assistant into the way the work gets done
Double ships weekly, and nearly every release extends Ask Double rather than the surrounding application. In the last two months it has learned to build workpapers by reconciling accounts against supporting documents, import accruals, create and manage client metrics through the MCP and API, take voice input, and — in private beta — reach into Slack, Notion, and HubSpot. The non-assistant work fills in what firms need to trust that: role-based restrictions on editing client properties, and check transactions in AI Transactions.
What is Movebot?
Movebot fills out Google Workspace migration breadth and admin controls, then quiets.
Movebot is methodically deepening its Google Workspace migration support — Resource Calendars (rooms, shared spaces) are now first-class, calendar permission/attendee mapping has its own configuration surface with CSV import, and Google SSO is available with an enforce-login option for admins. Mailbox Discovery Scans were dialed back at the org level due to source-side rate limits.

Double is turning its accounting assistant into the way the work gets done
◆ Current state
Double ships weekly, and nearly every release extends Ask Double rather than the surrounding application. In the last two months it has learned to build workpapers by reconciling accounts against supporting documents, import accruals, create and manage client metrics through the MCP and API, take voice input, and — in private beta — reach into Slack, Notion, and HubSpot. The non-assistant work fills in what firms need to trust that: role-based restrictions on editing client properties, and check transactions in AI Transactions.
◆ Where it's heading
The assistant is moving from answering questions to performing the billable work — tie-out, accrual setup, metric standardization across a whole book of clients. Each release pairs that with an access or permissions control, which is the pattern of a vendor that knows the objection is liability rather than capability. The accounting engine itself keeps advancing underneath, most recently with prepaid contracts paid in installments.
◆ Prediction
Given the review-and-signoff question these features raise, the likely next step is an approval or audit trail around what Ask Double produces rather than another task it can perform.
Movebot
0.0COLLAB
Movebot fills out Google Workspace migration breadth and admin controls, then quiets.
◆ Current state
Movebot is methodically deepening its Google Workspace migration support — Resource Calendars (rooms, shared spaces) are now first-class, calendar permission/attendee mapping has its own configuration surface with CSV import, and Google SSO is available with an enforce-login option for admins. Mailbox Discovery Scans were dialed back at the org level due to source-side rate limits.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is unglamorous but consistent: cover more of the migration matrix (more object types, more edge cases like recurring events) while giving admins of large migrations real configuration control. Public cadence has slowed since mid-2025, suggesting either a quieter maintenance phase or larger work happening below the public surface.
◆ Prediction
Most likely next steps are continuing to convert workarounds into first-class migration paths — Microsoft 365 resource equivalents, Teams data, or richer permission inheritance — alongside more bulk-config features like the CSV-driven mapping. A directional pivot is not visible in this data.
