What is Feedly?
Feedly compounds its threat-intel edge with steadier coverage and a thickening AI agent layer
Feedly Threat Intelligence ships on a roughly two-week cadence, deepening raw vulnerability coverage (now Oracle, Atlassian, and Apple advisories plus exploit-type tracking) and enrichment (GreyNoise, VirusTotal, Analyst1). On top of that base it keeps extending AI models — sharper cyberattack clustering, smarter insider-threat detection, and an expanding Cyberattack Agent.
What is Geckoboard?
Geckoboard is refining the dashboard itself — more filtering control and faster data.
Geckoboard's recent work targets the mechanics of building and reading dashboards: multi-value GA4 contains filters, cross-object HubSpot filtering, chart granularity decoupled from timespan, configurable week-start, and webhook-driven instant updates for Zendesk agent status. It also shipped a stacked column chart — its first entirely new visualization in years.

Feedly compounds its threat-intel edge with steadier coverage and a thickening AI agent layer
◆ Current state
Feedly Threat Intelligence ships on a roughly two-week cadence, deepening raw vulnerability coverage (now Oracle, Atlassian, and Apple advisories plus exploit-type tracking) and enrichment (GreyNoise, VirusTotal, Analyst1). On top of that base it keeps extending AI models — sharper cyberattack clustering, smarter insider-threat detection, and an expanding Cyberattack Agent.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is a widening data-and-integration base with an AI analysis layer built over it. Feedly is positioning the product as both a comprehensive intel source and an AI workspace that clusters attacks, extracts IoCs, and answers analyst questions, with delivery into Slack and Teams.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued biweekly coverage expansion plus more AI-agent analysis features and third-party enrichment integrations, rather than any single directional pivot.
Geckoboard
5.0ANALYTICS
Geckoboard is refining the dashboard itself — more filtering control and faster data.
◆ Current state
Geckoboard's recent work targets the mechanics of building and reading dashboards: multi-value GA4 contains filters, cross-object HubSpot filtering, chart granularity decoupled from timespan, configurable week-start, and webhook-driven instant updates for Zendesk agent status. It also shipped a stacked column chart — its first entirely new visualization in years.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is steady refinement of the core dashboarding surface rather than expansion into new product areas. Most releases give analysts finer control over how existing metrics are filtered, bucketed, and refreshed — closing small gaps power users hit daily.
◆ Prediction
Expect more of the same: incremental filtering, visualization, and integration-freshness improvements. The single new chart type may signal appetite for more visualizations, but the entries don't confirm a broader push.
