June's last visible push was a tight May 2025 B2B sprint — Custom Objects, SQL traits, PostHog integration.
June is product analytics for B2B SaaS, and the only visible release activity in the input is a concentrated four-week sprint in May 2025: SQL computed traits, PostHog as a data source, increased computed-trait limits, and the GA of Custom Objects after a two-month rollout. Each release is paired with small fixes (Slack alerts, HubSpot reverse sync) suggesting a stable maintenance cadence around the headline launches.
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.

Each release is paired with small fixes (Slack alerts, HubSpot reverse sync) suggesting a stable maintenance cadence around the headline launches.
The May 2025 batch is internally consistent: every release widens what June can model (Custom Objects), how flexibly customers can compute on it (SQL traits), or how easily it slots into existing data plumbing (PostHog source). All three target the B2B-SaaS persona that wants more than user/account analytics. After this burst the changelog goes quiet in the input — it's not clear from the entries alone whether the product moved to a slower cadence, switched publishing channels, or paused.
The entries don't support a confident prediction about what comes next. If publishing resumes from the same direction, the obvious extensions are deeper integrations with reverse-ETL or warehouse-native sources and richer pre-built health-score templates on top of SQL computed traits.

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.
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.
