Clicky replaces password logins for its Account API with real API keys.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and Plausible — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
AgencyAnalytics keeps widening its integrations while tables learn row-level math
AgencyAnalytics publishes weekly product notes. The latest two added dark mode, Custom Metrics computed per row in table widgets, CallRail sentiment and tag breakdowns, HighLevel email campaign reporting, row-level period comparisons across 23 more integrations, and Quantcast as a new ad source. Mid-October brought its MCP server's first write actions and an AI Tracker view of existing AI answers that mention a client.
Plausible removes the goal setup step from funnels.
Plausible's 2026 work centres on funnels: strict order, time comparison, revenue tracking, flexible steps, and now funnels that no longer require goals to be configured first. Around that sit the AI Assistants referral channel, chart annotations, full-URL page reports and user journeys.

Two threads run in parallel: more data sources and deeper table analysis for reporting, and AI features that both write to the account and track client visibility in AI answers.
More integrations will likely gain row-level comparison, since this week's release extended it to 23 at once.
Plausible's 2026 work centres on funnels: strict order, time comparison, revenue tracking, flexible steps, and now funnels that no longer require goals to be configured first. Around that sit the AI Assistants referral channel, chart annotations, full-URL page reports and user journeys.
Each funnel release lowers the effort needed to answer a conversion question, and the latest removes the last setup step. Plausible is turning funnels from a configured report into something a user can build on the spot, while keeping the product's simple-analytics position.
The next releases likely continue reducing setup across reports, for example building segments or goals inline from existing data. The entries do not show a pricing or plan change tied to funnels.
