AgencyAnalytics vs GDPuc: at a glance
What is AgencyAnalytics?
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.
What is GDPuc?
A GDP unit converter that keeps widening which currencies and deflators it will accept
GDPuc converts GDP figures between currencies, base years and price bases, using World Bank conversion factors, and is used as a dependency inside the madrat/magclass modelling stack. The 1.6.x line introduced xCU as a unit — local currency of any country x — added arguments for non-default iso3c and year columns, and made the package work with madrat caching and region mappings. The most recent release fixes a bug in iso3c column selection.

AgencyAI got skills three weeks ago; everything since has been making them routine.
◆ Current state
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.
◆ Where it's heading
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.
◆ Prediction
Expect scheduled skills to gain delivery — results pushed into reports or sent to clients — rather than staying inside the assistant panel.
GDPuc
0.0ANALYTICS
A GDP unit converter that keeps widening which currencies and deflators it will accept
◆ Current state
GDPuc converts GDP figures between currencies, base years and price bases, using World Bank conversion factors, and is used as a dependency inside the madrat/magclass modelling stack. The 1.6.x line introduced xCU as a unit — local currency of any country x — added arguments for non-default iso3c and year columns, and made the package work with madrat caching and region mappings. The most recent release fixes a bug in iso3c column selection.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is toward accepting messier inputs from more callers. Successive releases have relaxed assumptions the package originally made — that a year column exists, that column names follow a convention, that PPP data is available for every country — and each relaxation is driven by an integration rather than by an economics question. The one genuinely methodological addition is the CPI as an alternative deflator, which arrived in 1.0.0.
◆ Prediction
Conversion factors are versioned World Bank data and were last refreshed in 1.0.0, so a data update is the most likely content of the next substantive release, alongside continued fixes to the column-detection logic that has now produced bugs twice.
