Basedash keeps pushing its data out of the workspace — now to people without accounts
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and bootStateSpace — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
AgencyAI got skills three weeks ago; everything since has been making them routine.
The cadence is weekly and heavily weighted toward AgencyAI. Skills landed in early August as named, runnable agency tasks; scheduling followed, so those tasks now run on their own. Around the assistant, the reporting surface keeps widening: advanced filtering on custom metrics and KPIs, client tags, a report shares view, and a MailerLite data source that brings email campaign metrics alongside every other channel.
A parametric bootstrap for state-space models, shipped and then left alone.
bootStateSpace generates parametric bootstrap samples for state-space models, covering fixed-parameter variants across general state-space, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck, linear stochastic differential equation and vector autoregressive specifications. Its entire public history is three releases: an initial CRAN publication in January 2025, one patch adding a clean argument to the four fitting functions a month later, and a citation update in October. The methodological anchor is continuous-time mediation work published in Psychological Methods.

Around the assistant, the reporting surface keeps widening: advanced filtering on custom metrics and KPIs, client tags, a report shares view, and a MailerLite data source that brings email campaign metrics alongside every other channel.
The assistant is being moved from something an operator invokes to something that runs on a schedule against connected client data, which changes it from a feature into part of the reporting pipeline. The integration work continues at its usual pace and serves the same end — the more channels are connected, the more a scheduled skill has to reason over. Filtering and tagging are the plumbing that lets those tasks be scoped to the right accounts.
Expect scheduled skills to gain delivery — results pushed into reports or sent to clients — rather than staying inside the assistant panel.
bootStateSpace generates parametric bootstrap samples for state-space models, covering fixed-parameter variants across general state-space, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck, linear stochastic differential equation and vector autoregressive specifications. Its entire public history is three releases: an initial CRAN publication in January 2025, one patch adding a clean argument to the four fitting functions a month later, and a citation update in October. The methodological anchor is continuous-time mediation work published in Psychological Methods.
This is research software following its paper rather than a product on a roadmap — the most recent release adds nothing but a citation to the 2025 Psychological Methods article on effects in continuous-time mediation models. It sits within the same author's cluster of psychometric and continuous-time modelling packages, which is where changes to the underlying methods tend to originate. The package itself has been functionally unchanged since February 2025.
The release pattern suggests the package moves when the associated research does, so the next change most likely accompanies a new paper or a fix surfaced by a sibling package rather than arriving on its own schedule.
