What is themis?
themis is back to adding real resampling algorithms after a documentation-heavy stretch.
themis supplies recipes steps for handling class imbalance in tidymodels. The 1.0.x line was consumed by documentation accuracy, message translation and internal consistency work. Version 1.1.0 returns to substance with two new under-sampling methods.
What is Usermaven?
Usermaven closed the loop: data comes in from anywhere, and now it goes back out.
Three consecutive releases have each opened a different edge of the product. Event Sources brought conversion events in from payments, CRMs and spreadsheets without code; the MCP server let any AI client query the workspace; the newest adds a read-only Salesforce connection, Reverse ETL pushing Usermaven audiences into operational tools, external MCP connectors feeding Maven AI outside context, and configurable engagement scoring. Underneath, the analysis surfaces were consolidated earlier in the summer into Analytics Hub and a command bar.

themis
2.5ANALYTICS
themis is back to adding real resampling algorithms after a documentation-heavy stretch.
◆ Current state
themis supplies recipes steps for handling class imbalance in tidymodels. The 1.0.x line was consumed by documentation accuracy, message translation and internal consistency work. Version 1.1.0 returns to substance with two new under-sampling methods.
◆ Where it's heading
The package grows by adding algorithms rather than restructuring itself. tomek() was rewritten to handle multiple classes and drop the unbalanced dependency, case weights arrived at 1.0.0, and cluster-centroid and condensed-nearest-neighbour under-sampling arrive now — each shipped as both a recipes step and a direct-implementation function.
◆ Prediction
Expect further under- and over-sampling methods in the same paired form, as the package fills out coverage of the standard class-imbalance literature.
Usermaven
8.8ANALYTICS
Usermaven closed the loop: data comes in from anywhere, and now it goes back out.
◆ Current state
Three consecutive releases have each opened a different edge of the product. Event Sources brought conversion events in from payments, CRMs and spreadsheets without code; the MCP server let any AI client query the workspace; the newest adds a read-only Salesforce connection, Reverse ETL pushing Usermaven audiences into operational tools, external MCP connectors feeding Maven AI outside context, and configurable engagement scoring. Underneath, the analysis surfaces were consolidated earlier in the summer into Analytics Hub and a command bar.
◆ Where it's heading
The shape is a product deliberately becoming a hub rather than a destination. Ingest, query and activation have each been generalized in turn, and the common design choice is to hand the boundary to a standard or a connector rather than build integrations one at a time. What is left proprietary is the middle — identity resolution, attribution, engagement scoring — which is where the release notes keep adding configurability. The Salesforce connection being read-only in its first cut fits the pattern: land the schema mapping, then open the write path.
◆ Prediction
Salesforce write-back is the obvious next step, since Reverse ETL already exists as the mechanism and the entry marks read-only as a first release. Expect more CRM connectors on the same template — read-only, per-org field mapping, sandbox first.
