Whatagraph is quietly building a data layer beneath its agency reporting tool.
Whatagraph remains an agency-focused marketing reporting platform, but recent releases push two fronts at once: deeper data infrastructure and broader visualization. The Data Storage destination and Snowflake source let it ingest and retain data rather than just pull live API calls each render, while a steady stream of widgets (GeoMap, Gauge, Heatmap) and table controls sharpen the reporting surface clients see. Integration breadth keeps widening with WhatConverts, Shopify collaborator access, and a rebuilt CallTrackingMetrics.
Usermaven consolidates its scattered analyses into one Analytics Hub workspace
Usermaven is a product-and-web analytics platform built around funnels, journeys, trends, retention, and attribution, with a steady layer of AI-generated report summaries. Recent releases concentrate on consolidating and polishing the analysis experience rather than adding net-new analytical primitives.

The center of gravity is shifting from a connector that visualizes marketing channels toward a data layer that stores and blends first-party and warehouse data. Storage, 24-month backfill, and Snowflake ingestion all reduce dependence on live API calls and position Whatagraph to own more of the pipeline. Visualization work continues in parallel but increasingly reads as table-stakes polish next to the infrastructure bets.
Expect the storage and warehouse thread to deepen, with more destinations, longer retention, and richer blended-attribution tooling on the Max plan. AI-assisted report creation (Create with IQ) is the likely next surface to expand.

Recent releases concentrate on consolidating and polishing the analysis experience rather than adding net-new analytical primitives.
The arc is toward a more unified, lower-friction analytics surface. Analytics Hub centralizes the four core analysis types, following redesigns of Trends and reporting. Alongside the UX consolidation, Usermaven has been broadening its data plumbing through Meta CAPI, S3 export, and form tracking, and leaning on AI summaries to make reports readable at a glance.
Expect the consolidation to continue, with remaining modules folded into Analytics Hub, and further investment in AI summarization and attribution depth as the differentiators in a crowded analytics market.
