What is eulerr?

The area-proportional Euler diagram package is finished software, and maintained like it.

eulerr generates area-proportional Euler and Venn diagrams by numerically optimizing shape positions and sizes to match set relationships, with the fitting done in C++. The last feature release was 7.0.0 in December 2022, which made the optimization's loss function user-selectable. Everything since has been maintenance: documentation URL corrections, a strip-layout fix when grouping, an Armadillo deprecation, and an R CMD check warning about an unignored config file.

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.

The area-proportional Euler diagram package is finished software, and maintained like it.

◆ Current state

eulerr generates area-proportional Euler and Venn diagrams by numerically optimizing shape positions and sizes to match set relationships, with the fitting done in C++. The last feature release was 7.0.0 in December 2022, which made the optimization's loss function user-selectable. Everything since has been maintenance: documentation URL corrections, a strip-layout fix when grouping, an Armadillo deprecation, and an R CMD check warning about an unignored config file.

◆ Where it's heading

This is a mature package whose problem is solved, and the release pattern reflects that — three of the last four releases changed nothing a user would see. What activity remains is tracking its dependencies rather than its own roadmap: keeping up with Armadillo's deprecations and R CMD check policy is the whole of recent work. The two September 2025 releases an hour apart are a fix and its follow-up, not a development cycle restarting.

◆ Prediction

The pattern points to continued upkeep triggered by upstream C++ and CRAN check changes rather than new capability. If anything does move, the configurable loss function added in 7.0.0 is the surface with room left in it.

8.8

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.
