Basedash keeps pushing its data out of the workspace — now to people without accounts
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and segregatr — 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 segregation-analysis tool that keeps widening which pedigrees it can actually handle.
segregatr computes full-likelihood Bayes factors for variant segregation in families, built on pedtools and part of the wider pedsuite ecosystem. Its releases are infrequent but each one lifts a structural restriction: loops, recessive and X-linked models, liability classes, and most recently a proband-free variant of the score. The companion shinyseg app gives the same machinery a clinical front end.

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.

The companion shinyseg app gives the same machinery a clinical front end.
The through-line is coverage of awkward real-world pedigrees rather than new statistics. Loops were handled for the core score in 0.3.0 and then extended to liability classes in 0.4.0, so the same structural capability is being pushed through the codebase feature by feature. The 2025 release moves in a different direction, relaxing the requirement for a designated proband. Development is slow and steady, roughly annual, and tracks its pedtools dependency closely.
Expect the next release to continue relaxing modelling constraints — the pattern of retrofitting each new capability across loops, liability classes and inheritance models is unfinished — rather than expanding beyond segregation scoring.
