Recent feed is a historical archive reindex; most actual-current ships sit deeper in the queue.

◆Current state
The window is dominated by Oyster's blog archive being reindexed on April 26 — six of the surfaced entries describe product updates from 2023, 2024, and mid-2025. They collectively chart Oyster's footprint across global employment plumbing: integrations (ADP Workforce Now, Hibob, Workday, PayFit, plus an Oyster API), compensation tooling (Salary Analyzer, Benefit Marketplace, salary insights), direct-employment expansion (Mexico via own entity), and small UX polish. The genuinely recent ships in the broader queue — Q1 2026 product updates and People Partner Services from February 2026 — are buried below this archive surfacing.
◆Where it's heading
From the archive evidence, Oyster's long-running pattern is steady breadth investment: integrations with major HRIS/payroll vendors, country-by-country direct employment buildout, and a slow march into compensation intelligence and benefits. Trajectory signal from the visible entries alone is muted because the dates are old; recent shifts (People Partner Services adding expert HR advisory) hint at moving from software-only to software-plus-services, but those entries are outside the top 6.
◆Prediction
Expect the next visible ship cycle to land in another services-and-software bundle — country additions, integration breadth, and possibly more advisory-layered products. Without fresher entries surfacing in the feed, deeper predictions would not be grounded.
