What is Omni?
Omni races to make AI a governed, GA-grade layer of the BI stack.
Omni is a BI and analytics platform shipping weekly release notes. Recent work splits across three fronts: embedding AI throughout the product (AI Hub now GA, AI skills with access grants, AI file uploads), hardening the modeling and compute layer (calculation pushdown, compute routing, sketch-based approximate aggregates), and maturing the API and embedding surface (publish-document API, OAuth for the CLI, embed timezone overrides, Notion and Slack integrations).
What is Whatagraph?
Whatagraph builds a managed storage layer, moving from live-API reporting toward owning the data pipeline
Whatagraph is a marketing-reporting platform that pulls multi-channel data — paid media, web analytics, CRM, call tracking, e-commerce — into client-ready reports. Recent releases push on three fronts: more data sources (WhatConverts, Snowflake, bol., CallTrackingMetrics v2), reporting performance and architecture (Data Storage), and report-building UX (themes, grid view, AI-assisted creation, conditional formatting, GeoMap).

Omni
6.3ANALYTICS
Omni races to make AI a governed, GA-grade layer of the BI stack.
◆ Current state
Omni is a BI and analytics platform shipping weekly release notes. Recent work splits across three fronts: embedding AI throughout the product (AI Hub now GA, AI skills with access grants, AI file uploads), hardening the modeling and compute layer (calculation pushdown, compute routing, sketch-based approximate aggregates), and maturing the API and embedding surface (publish-document API, OAuth for the CLI, embed timezone overrides, Notion and Slack integrations).
◆ Where it's heading
Omni is building AI as a first-class layer of the analytics stack while laying the compute-routing and pushdown plumbing that lets those AI features run cheaply at scale. The cadence is high and steady, and the AI work is increasingly paired with governance controls rather than shipped raw.
◆ Prediction
Expect AI Hub to accumulate more governed skills and the compute-routing and approximate-aggregate work to expand, pointing toward AI-driven analysis that is both access-controlled and performance-tuned.
Whatagraph
5.0ANALYTICS
Whatagraph builds a managed storage layer, moving from live-API reporting toward owning the data pipeline
◆ Current state
Whatagraph is a marketing-reporting platform that pulls multi-channel data — paid media, web analytics, CRM, call tracking, e-commerce — into client-ready reports. Recent releases push on three fronts: more data sources (WhatConverts, Snowflake, bol., CallTrackingMetrics v2), reporting performance and architecture (Data Storage), and report-building UX (themes, grid view, AI-assisted creation, conditional formatting, GeoMap).
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is owning more of the data pipeline — adding warehouse-grade sources like Snowflake and a managed storage layer so reports load fast over deep history — while smoothing the build experience for agencies juggling many clients. AI-assisted report creation ('Create with IQ') hints at where the authoring side is heading.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued integration expansion, especially retail-media and warehouse sources, more depth on Data Storage (schemas, backfill, performance), and further AI in report creation. Whatagraph is positioning as a reporting layer that stores and blends data, not just one that visualizes live feeds.
