Omni
Omni ships weekly, and almost every week the headline item is an AI feature.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and assesslite — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
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.
Four releases in fifteen hours take causal assumption-checking from resampling to identification
AssessLite attacks the structural assumptions behind a causal finding and returns three-way verdicts — stable, unstable, or not resolvable — feeding proceed, conditional or abstain decisions, with an auditable JSON record validated against a shared schema. It runs natively in R and Python against one spec, with the Python engine reproducing R's coxph(ties=breslow) exactly. The entire 0.1.0-through-0.4.0 arc landed inside a single day in July 2026.

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.
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 releases are cumulative, each restating the previous feature set and adding to it, so read them as one launch rather than four. The direction across that launch is clear: it started with resampling attacks (permutation, holdout, temporal split, subgroup), turned toward causal identification with declared DAGs and the backdoor criterion, then reached into genuinely dependent data with spatial and interference checks. The correctness work moves in step — the 0.3.0 Bonferroni adjustment fixed a holdout rule that was flagging roughly m times too often with m variants.
The project has repeatedly shipped what it previously listed as future work within days, so the next release most likely converts another declared gap rather than opening a new front.
