What is AgencyAnalytics?
Reporting tool turning itself into the place agencies prove AI visibility to clients
AgencyAnalytics runs a genuine changelog with clear, self-contained release notes. The recent stretch has been dense: an expanded Ahrefs integration, historical prompt tracking in AI Tracker, MailerLite as a data source, scheduled AgencyAI prompts, regex filtering on custom metrics, and client tagging. AgencyAI gained skills at the start of the month, which remains the anchor release.
What is Fulcrum?
Fulcrum ships to four platforms a week and says almost nothing in each note.
Releases arrive in near-daily pairs across iOS, Android and web, each carrying one or two fixes. The newest iOS build stops the GPS accuracy banner covering MBTiles map popups and repairs an intermittent failure in the USERFULLNAME() data event function. The surrounding releases are the same shape: duplicate-save and HEIC-in-PDF corrections, an Android GPS tracking crash, list filter performance.

Reporting tool turning itself into the place agencies prove AI visibility to clients
◆ Current state
AgencyAnalytics runs a genuine changelog with clear, self-contained release notes. The recent stretch has been dense: an expanded Ahrefs integration, historical prompt tracking in AI Tracker, MailerLite as a data source, scheduled AgencyAI prompts, regex filtering on custom metrics, and client tagging. AgencyAI gained skills at the start of the month, which remains the anchor release.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads are converging. One keeps widening the data-source catalogue so an agency never leaves the dashboard; the other builds AI features that turn that data into client-ready narrative — scheduled prompts, saved skills, and now a historical record of how AI answers about a client have changed. The AI Visibility metrics arriving through Ahrefs feed directly into that second thread.
◆ Prediction
Expect AI Tracker to keep gaining depth, since the release notes say more is coming, and expect the pattern of pairing a new data source with a way to narrate it in AgencyAI to continue.
Fulcrum
6.3ANALYTICS
Fulcrum ships to four platforms a week and says almost nothing in each note.
◆ Current state
Releases arrive in near-daily pairs across iOS, Android and web, each carrying one or two fixes. The newest iOS build stops the GPS accuracy banner covering MBTiles map popups and repairs an intermittent failure in the USERFULLNAME() data event function. The surrounding releases are the same shape: duplicate-save and HEIC-in-PDF corrections, an Android GPS tracking crash, list filter performance.
◆ Where it's heading
This is a field data collection product maintained by continuous small correction rather than by feature releases, with the mobile clients versioned in lockstep and rolled out in phases. Nothing in this window changes what Fulcrum does; the work is keeping capture reliable on hardware and in conditions the team cannot fully control. The notes are honest about that, including the phased-rollout caveat that not every user is on the latest build.
◆ Prediction
Expect the pattern to continue — paired mobile releases every few days, each a short fix list, with substantive changes surfacing in the web release notes rather than the app builds.
