What is Fulcrum?
Fulcrum gives admins one FastFill Settings panel while Photo FastFill stays in Alpha.
Fulcrum's recent releases are mostly fixes across iOS, Android and web. The latest web release adds a consolidated FastFill Settings section in the App Builder for Photo FastFill alpha testers, where admins pick which photo fields it runs on, which fields it fills and whether Audio FastFill is on. The 2610.0.0 mobile builds repaired offline ArcGIS layer downloads and the external GPS flow.
What is Tinylytics?
Tinylytics is quietly adding AI and agent integration — MCP queries from the dashboard, n8n hooks.
Tinylytics ships in weekly changelog batches rather than versioned releases, which makes individual releases hard to isolate. The recent period shows two notable additions: the ability to query site analytics through an AI assistant from within the dashboard, and n8n/agent workflow integration for analytics data. The rest is polish — better onboarding confirmations, bot filtering improvements, content monitoring refinements.

Fulcrum
5.0ANALYTICS
Fulcrum gives admins one FastFill Settings panel while Photo FastFill stays in Alpha.
◆ Current state
Fulcrum's recent releases are mostly fixes across iOS, Android and web. The latest web release adds a consolidated FastFill Settings section in the App Builder for Photo FastFill alpha testers, where admins pick which photo fields it runs on, which fields it fills and whether Audio FastFill is on. The 2610.0.0 mobile builds repaired offline ArcGIS layer downloads and the external GPS flow.
◆ Where it's heading
Photo FastFill keeps gaining controls release after release, first user-side photo selection on mobile and now admin-side configuration per app, which is the kind of scaffolding a feature gets before leaving Alpha. Repeated external GPS and offline-map work points to continued investment in high-precision field deployments with poor connectivity.
◆ Prediction
The likeliest next notable release is Photo FastFill moving from Alpha to a broader beta, now that it has admin configuration. The entries give no timing.
Tinylytics
5.0ANALYTICS
Tinylytics is quietly adding AI and agent integration — MCP queries from the dashboard, n8n hooks.
◆ Current state
Tinylytics ships in weekly changelog batches rather than versioned releases, which makes individual releases hard to isolate. The recent period shows two notable additions: the ability to query site analytics through an AI assistant from within the dashboard, and n8n/agent workflow integration for analytics data. The rest is polish — better onboarding confirmations, bot filtering improvements, content monitoring refinements.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is expanding from a minimalist analytics tool into one that pipes data into AI and automation workflows. Passkeys, Ultra AI portfolio insights, and the MCP-accessible dashboard point toward a vision where analytics data is queryable by agents, not just humans reading a chart.
◆ Prediction
Structured API or webhook support that lets automation platforms pull analytics data on demand — rather than periodic exports — would be the natural completion of the n8n and agent integration work.
