OpenPanel
OpenPanel ships 3.1.0 and 3.1.1 within a day of 3.0, all supporter-first builds with no notes.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of HyperDX and Osano — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
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.
Osano is automating the judgement calls in privacy compliance, slowly and on a blog-shaped feed
Osano publishes infrequently and through marketing posts, so product news arrives wrapped in editorial. The substantive releases are Compliance Check, which produces automated proof that a website's privacy posture holds up, and a run of AI features before it: cookie classification, assessment templates and most recently an AI trained to answer privacy questions.

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.

The consistent direction is replacing manual privacy labour — classifying cookies, chasing colleagues for assessment answers, assembling evidence — with automated output. Everything else in the feed is reporting, to-do lists and consent management refinements around that core.
Expect the AI assistant and Compliance Check to converge, so the system that answers privacy questions is also the one producing the evidence behind the answer.
