OpenPanel
OpenPanel reaches 3.9.0 within six days of 3.0.0, still with no release notes.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ChartMogul and HyperDX — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
ChartMogul's MRRaudit goes after its own core problem: MRR figures that don't reconcile.
ChartMogul tracks MRR, churn and trial conversion for subscription businesses, with a CRM attached. On October 21 it introduced MRRaudit, a tool for explaining why MRR numbers don't match, which is the first named feature in the feed since the February Crono and January n8n integrations. The October 12 'more actionable customer data' announcement still publishes no detail, and the rest of the year has been essays.
HyperDX now tags every ClickHouse query it runs, so teams can see which dashboard drives the load.
HyperDX ships as a monorepo of versioned packages (app, api, CLI, common-utils, collector), so one release shows up as several changelog entries. The 2.41.0 wave on October 13 adds PromQL heatmaps, a minimum auto granularity on PromQL sources, and query attribution: every ClickHouse and PromQL query carries an hdx- query_id and a JSON log_comment naming the dashboard, tile, search or alert behind it. The API also stops falling back to a public session secret, and AI assistant calls now emit OpenTelemetry GenAI-convention spans.

After a year of integrations and thought leadership, ChartMogul is returning to the trust layer of its core metric. MRR discrepancies between billing systems, finance and dashboards are the main reason teams doubt analytics tools, so an audit view defends the base product rather than extending into CRM. Product cadence is picking up in October after a four-month gap.
Expect MRRaudit-style explanations to spread to other metrics such as churn or trial conversion. The feed gives only a title for MRRaudit, so its scope is not yet confirmed.

The API also stops falling back to a public session secret, and AI assistant calls now emit OpenTelemetry GenAI-convention spans.
Two threads continue: Grafana-style metrics parity (multi-expression PromQL, macros, granularity floors, now heatmaps) and controlling query cost on ClickHouse (bounded Map-key scans, now per-surface query attribution in system.query_log). Security defaults are being tightened for self-hosted deployments, and HyperDX is applying OpenTelemetry's GenAI conventions to its own AI features. The CLI keeps picking up the web app's chart types.
Expect query attribution to show up inside the product, for example per-dashboard cost views or limits, and more PromQL visualization types to catch up with the builder. The entries don't show a timeline for either.
