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.
Omni ships dbt on Trino and MCP app management, extending AI-native BI coverage
Omni is pushing hard on two fronts simultaneously: warehouse integration depth (dbt on Trino, Databricks query tagging, GitHub App authentication for dbt) and AI-native interfaces (MCP server tools for app management, dashboard PNG exports from MCP clients, user memory in AI chat). Apps reaching general availability in the August 31 release was a product maturity milestone. The result is a BI tool that increasingly treats AI agents as first-class consumers of analytics data.
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.
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.
Omni is pushing hard on two fronts simultaneously: warehouse integration depth (dbt on Trino, Databricks query tagging, GitHub App authentication for dbt) and AI-native interfaces (MCP server tools for app management, dashboard PNG exports from MCP clients, user memory in AI chat). Apps reaching general availability in the August 31 release was a product maturity milestone. The result is a BI tool that increasingly treats AI agents as first-class consumers of analytics data.
The MCP surface expands in nearly every release — searchDashboards, then PNG exports, now app management tools. Omni is building toward a state where an AI agent can autonomously navigate, configure, and extract data from an Omni workspace without human mediation. The dbt integration expansion across database backends (Trino joins Snowflake/BigQuery) widens the addressable data stack and signals that dbt-first teams are a priority customer segment.
Omni will expand MCP tool coverage to include dashboard creation and workbook manipulation, completing the loop on full agent-driven BI workflows.
