Ever Gauzy vs HiBob: at a glance
What is Ever Gauzy?
Gauzy's React rewrite becomes a tenant-level switch, and its AI chat learns to listen
Ever Gauzy is shipping at a punishing rate — eleven tags in 48 hours, from v111.35.14 to v111.36.5. Almost all of that traffic is CI hardening and same-day hotfixes; the substance sits in a single tag, v111.36.0. That release adds a tenant-wide switch between the Angular and React front ends, ships the React Time Tracking dashboard at parity with its Angular original, and puts speech-to-text into the AI chat behind eight new provider plugins.
What is HiBob?
HiBob replaces its CV summarizer with a scoring model recruiters have to configure themselves.
Bob's developer changelog is a steady stream of Public API surface: Skills, Employer, Time Off calendars, Goals, and Hiring search endpoints, most of them adding read or sync paths for external systems. Against that background, two entries stand out — the MCP server moving to OAuth-based user access with an expanded toolset, and AI CV Matching replacing the previous AI CV Summary with an explainable match score built on criteria the recruiter defines.

◆ Current state
Ever Gauzy is shipping at a punishing rate — eleven tags in 48 hours, from v111.35.14 to v111.36.5. Almost all of that traffic is CI hardening and same-day hotfixes; the substance sits in a single tag, v111.36.0. That release adds a tenant-wide switch between the Angular and React front ends, ships the React Time Tracking dashboard at parity with its Angular original, and puts speech-to-text into the AI chat behind eight new provider plugins.
◆ Where it's heading
Two arcs are running in parallel. The React migration has crossed from internal port to a customer-visible choice, which means Gauzy now carries both UIs and every ported dashboard tightens the case for retiring Angular. The AI chat continues to extend the plugin-per-provider architecture it established back in v111.1.0, this time into voice rather than text. The tag stream around both is dominated by CI work — credential scrubbing, registry refactors, runner timeouts — suggesting the build pipeline is the current bottleneck.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Angular dashboards ported to React behind the Preferred-UI switch, one module at a time, and further voice provider plugins added to the existing bring-your-own-key pattern.
HiBob
6.3HR
HiBob replaces its CV summarizer with a scoring model recruiters have to configure themselves.
◆ Current state
Bob's developer changelog is a steady stream of Public API surface: Skills, Employer, Time Off calendars, Goals, and Hiring search endpoints, most of them adding read or sync paths for external systems. Against that background, two entries stand out — the MCP server moving to OAuth-based user access with an expanded toolset, and AI CV Matching replacing the previous AI CV Summary with an explainable match score built on criteria the recruiter defines.
◆ Where it's heading
HiBob is turning Bob into a system other software reads from and writes to, rather than a destination product. The API additions make every module — skills, employer entities, time off, hiring — reachable from outside, and the OAuth MCP server extends the same access to AI tools under user-scoped permissions. The CV change shows where the AI investment is aimed: not at generating text for recruiters to read, but at producing structured judgments they can be asked to justify.
◆ Prediction
Expect the criteria behind CV Matching to become configurable through the Hiring API the same way the module itself was, and for the remaining Bob modules without public endpoints to follow Skills and Employer into the API.
