AgencyAnalytics vs tEDM
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and tEDM — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
AgencyAnalytics vs tEDM: at a glance
What is AgencyAnalytics?
AgencyAnalytics is turning its assistant into scheduled agency staff work, not a chat box.
The release cadence is weekly and heavily weighted toward AgencyAI. Skills landed in early August as named, runnable agency tasks; scheduling followed, letting those requests run on a cadence and post results into the client's conversation. Around them sit portfolio-management improvements — client tags, report share history, advanced metric filtering — and a consolidated Data tab feeding the assistant's context.
What is tEDM?
The temporal half of the stscl EDM pair, tracking its spatial sibling
tEDM applies empirical dynamic modeling to time series — cross mapping, convergent cross mapping and the logistic map — as the temporal counterpart to spEDM, with which it shares a maintainer and a C++ core. The recent releases are consolidation rather than expansion: index handling in cross mapping corrected, generics taught to accept varying E, k and tau, and the associated paper now cited in the README. Only three releases are visible in the feed.

AgencyAnalytics is turning its assistant into scheduled agency staff work, not a chat box.
◆ Current state
The release cadence is weekly and heavily weighted toward AgencyAI. Skills landed in early August as named, runnable agency tasks; scheduling followed, letting those requests run on a cadence and post results into the client's conversation. Around them sit portfolio-management improvements — client tags, report share history, advanced metric filtering — and a consolidated Data tab feeding the assistant's context.
◆ Where it's heading
Every recent release either gives AgencyAI more to read or more autonomy in when it runs. The Data tab consolidation, the AI Tracker add-on for AI search visibility, and now scheduling all point the same way: the platform is being positioned to produce the recurring client deliverables an agency would otherwise assign to a junior analyst.
◆ Prediction
Expect scheduled AgencyAI output to gain delivery paths beyond conversation history — into reports or client-facing sends — given the existing report scheduling and share infrastructure.

The temporal half of the stscl EDM pair, tracking its spatial sibling
◆ Current state
tEDM applies empirical dynamic modeling to time series — cross mapping, convergent cross mapping and the logistic map — as the temporal counterpart to spEDM, with which it shares a maintainer and a C++ core. The recent releases are consolidation rather than expansion: index handling in cross mapping corrected, generics taught to accept varying E, k and tau, and the associated paper now cited in the README. Only three releases are visible in the feed.
◆ Where it's heading
tEDM moves in lockstep with spEDM. Configurable distance metrics, varying E/k/tau inputs, strict floating-point comparison and the S3 plotting font unification all appear in both packages within days or weeks, as does the maintainer surname correction. The recent balance has tilted toward correcting library and prediction index handling — the kind of repeated attention that suggests the indexing model was the weak point of the shared core.
◆ Prediction
Expect tEDM to keep inheriting the shared-core changes spEDM lands, with its own releases staying small and centred on cross-mapping parameter handling rather than new method surface.
