What is Omni?

Omni keeps welding AI into the BI modeling layer, one weekly drop at a time

Omni ships weekly, and the throughline is AI moving from bolt-on to default: AI-powered visualization annotations and the AI Hub have reached general availability, and external AI context now pulls from Notion. Alongside that runs steady modeling and embedding work — calculation pushdown, dynamic top-N parameterization, approximate aggregates, and timezone overrides in embed URLs.

What is Appfigures?

Appfigures turns its estimate engine into market-ranking and competitor-intel products.

Appfigures has evolved from app analytics into market intelligence. Its download and revenue estimates now span iPhone and iPad and feed two larger products: a 15-report App Intelligence suite for sizing up any competitor, and new Leaderboards that rank apps and games across both stores by 14 metrics like revenue, downloads, and discovery.

Omni keeps welding AI into the BI modeling layer, one weekly drop at a time

◆ Current state

Omni ships weekly, and the throughline is AI moving from bolt-on to default: AI-powered visualization annotations and the AI Hub have reached general availability, and external AI context now pulls from Notion. Alongside that runs steady modeling and embedding work — calculation pushdown, dynamic top-N parameterization, approximate aggregates, and timezone overrides in embed URLs.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is converging an analyst-facing BI tool with an agent-assisted one: a Modeling Agent with skills, AI context-management controls, and access-gated AI grants suggest Omni wants AI that respects the semantic model rather than bypassing it. The non-AI work (compute routing, CLI OAuth, publish-draft APIs) is hardening the platform underneath so the AI features have a governed surface to act on.

◆ Prediction

Expect the next releases to keep promoting AI features from preview to GA and to deepen the Modeling Agent's reach into governed datasets; further external-context integrations beyond Notion are the likeliest near-term add.

Appfigures turns its estimate engine into market-ranking and competitor-intel products.

◆ Current state

Appfigures has evolved from app analytics into market intelligence. Its download and revenue estimates now span iPhone and iPad and feed two larger products: a 15-report App Intelligence suite for sizing up any competitor, and new Leaderboards that rank apps and games across both stores by 14 metrics like revenue, downloads, and discovery.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is clear — Appfigures is monetizing its estimate dataset by building higher-order products on top of it, with the richest features (historical Leaderboard data, per-app values) gated to Enterprise. Data completeness (iPad, by-state financials, faster Google Play) and a cleaner reporting UI round out the work.

◆ Prediction

Expect Leaderboards to deepen toward Enterprise upsell — more historical depth, per-app drill-downs, and category slices — following the same gate-the-good-stuff playbook used for App Intelligence.
