Zoho Sign
Zoho Sign adds the EU's highest signature tier, one week after wiring itself to agents.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Komga and Zoho Projects — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Komga is rewriting its web UI in the open, shipping the beta alongside the old one.
Komga's release cadence is dominated by NextUI, a ground-up rewrite of the web interface that landed in beta with 1.26.0 and is served next to the existing UI at /next rather than replacing it. The three patch releases that followed within 48 hours were almost entirely NextUI shakedown work — scroll restoration, selection behavior, stylesheets failing to load under Tomcat. Underneath the interface work the server keeps widening format support, with rar5 handling in plain Java and solid rar4 archives earlier in the summer.
Zoho Projects makes time tracking the product's center of gravity, and lets Zia build the schema.
Three of the last six releases touch time logs: a unified grid view, workflow automation with rules and webhooks, and Zia auto-filling weekly hours from assigned tasks. Alongside that, Zia has moved past suggestion into construction — users can now build custom modules by talking to it. The rest of the recent work extends reach rather than depth: a rebuilt Chrome extension, SalesIQ and WhatsApp integrations, and four more Android languages.

The project is running a long, deliberately cautious frontend migration: both UIs ship in the same binary, the feature gap is tracked publicly in an issue, and users opt in by URL. That arrangement should persist across several minor versions before the old WebUI is retired. The parallel v2 referential API suggests the rewrite is also being used to revise the server contract rather than only restyle the client.
Near-term releases should keep closing the NextUI feature gap issue by issue, with patch releases landing within days of each other. The old WebUI is unlikely to be removed before NextUI reaches parity and browser refresh stops falling back to it.

Time tracking is being rebuilt from a data-entry chore into an automated subsystem, with Zia supplying the entries and workflow rules acting on them. The more consequential shift is Zia's role: suggesting timesheet values is assistive, but generating custom modules means the AI is editing the structure of a customer's portal. Integration work points outward to the Zoho suite and to customer-facing channels, turning inbound chats and WhatsApp messages into tracked project records.
Expect Zia's module-building to widen into the surrounding configuration — workflow rules, layouts, and reports built the same conversational way. On the time side, the pieces are in place for Zia-suggested logs to be submitted and approved automatically under rules rather than reviewed entry by entry.
