What is Turnover-IT?
Turnover-IT is opening its CV database via APIs, with Profile Sync as the latest move.
Turnover-IT is leaning hard into API-led integration with customer ATS systems. The recent run has shipped Talent Search (query CV library from your own tooling), Profile Sync (push candidate updates back into customer environments), automated skills/competency files, and applicant-side custom questions. Releases regularly publish twice — once with proper emoji rendering, once with mojibake — making the changelog look noisier than the underlying release count.
What is Wagepoint?
Wagepoint put AI at the payroll approval gate, then spent a week arguing about where else it belongs.
Wagepoint's feed is an accountant-audience blog with one product release inside it: AI Payroll Summary, which flags unusual changes in a pay run before approval. Everything published since has orbited that launch — press pickup, a practitioner survey on which payroll tasks should be automated, and partner-channel content aimed at the bookkeeping firms Wagepoint sells through. The rest of the window is discovery-call scripts, payroll explainers and executive interviews.
Turnover-IT vs Wagepoint: editorial side-by-side
Turnover-IT is opening its CV database via APIs, with Profile Sync as the latest move.
◆ Current state
Turnover-IT is leaning hard into API-led integration with customer ATS systems. The recent run has shipped Talent Search (query CV library from your own tooling), Profile Sync (push candidate updates back into customer environments), automated skills/competency files, and applicant-side custom questions. Releases regularly publish twice — once with proper emoji rendering, once with mojibake — making the changelog look noisier than the underlying release count.
◆ Where it's heading
The strategy is shifting Turnover-IT from a destination tool to an API-shaped service inside whatever ATS or recruiting suite a customer already runs. Bundling this with automated skills-file generation suggests the bet is that recruiters will keep their workflow elsewhere but pull both candidates and AI-prepared dossiers from Turnover-IT. The 360-tier label on these features signals an explicit upmarket play.
◆ Prediction
Expect more API-first capabilities — likely candidate matching and assessment results — to follow Profile Sync, plus tighter packaging of these APIs as a standalone tier. Mojibake-duplicate publishing will probably persist until the team unifies their changelog feed.

◆ Current state
Wagepoint's feed is an accountant-audience blog with one product release inside it: AI Payroll Summary, which flags unusual changes in a pay run before approval.

The rest of the window is discovery-call scripts, payroll explainers and executive interviews.
◆ Where it's heading
The company is introducing AI to a risk-averse audience carefully: one narrowly-scoped feature at the highest-stakes moment in the workflow, followed by content that asks practitioners themselves to draw the line on automation. That sequencing matters more than cadence here — this is an accounting-channel product where a partner's own reputation is attached to the recommendation, and the survey framing is doing that trust work. No further product releases appear in this window.
◆ Prediction
The survey results read as a roadmap consultation, so the next AI feature will likely land on whichever tasks respondents ranked as safe to automate — data entry and reconciliation are the usual answers. Nothing in the entries indicates timing.
