Deepnote turns the notebook into shared context for AI coding agents
Deepnote has spent the year hardening the fundamentals of a collaborative notebook — Git sync, run snapshots, Polars, multi-format interop, AI cost visibility — and is now opening that accumulated workspace context to external agents. The June move wiring Codex directly into the workspace signals where the bet is going.
Whatagraph is quietly building a data layer beneath its agency reporting tool.
Whatagraph remains an agency-focused marketing reporting platform, but recent releases push two fronts at once: deeper data infrastructure and broader visualization. The Data Storage destination and Snowflake source let it ingest and retain data rather than just pull live API calls each render, while a steady stream of widgets (GeoMap, Gauge, Heatmap) and table controls sharpen the reporting surface clients see. Integration breadth keeps widening with WhatConverts, Shopify collaborator access, and a rebuilt CallTrackingMetrics.

The June move wiring Codex directly into the workspace signals where the bet is going.
The platform is positioning its notebooks, scheduled jobs, and integrations as the grounding context layer for AI exploration, while steadily closing the engineering-workflow gaps (Git, snapshots, reproducibility) that made notebooks hard to trust. Reproducibility plus agent-readable context is the combined thesis.
Expect deeper agent integration — more tools beyond Codex able to read and act on workspace context — alongside continued reproducibility and governance features like the AI usage metering already shipped.

Integration breadth keeps widening with WhatConverts, Shopify collaborator access, and a rebuilt CallTrackingMetrics.
The center of gravity is shifting from a connector that visualizes marketing channels toward a data layer that stores and blends first-party and warehouse data. Storage, 24-month backfill, and Snowflake ingestion all reduce dependence on live API calls and position Whatagraph to own more of the pipeline. Visualization work continues in parallel but increasingly reads as table-stakes polish next to the infrastructure bets.
Expect the storage and warehouse thread to deepen, with more destinations, longer retention, and richer blended-attribution tooling on the Max plan. AI-assisted report creation (Create with IQ) is the likely next surface to expand.
