ANALYTICS
Velocity0.0

Cloud-based business dashboard and reporting tool

www.klipfolio.com ↗

Klipfolio is in administrator-and-connector mode — small improvements, no directional moves.

◆Current state
Recent shipping is dominated by admin and security plumbing (custom-role permissions, MFA device memory, MFA admin enforcement, API key access) and connector maintenance (Snowflake key-pair auth, Google Ads v21, LinkedIn Ads dashboard). The team is also nibbling at data prep with column-split improvements. Cadence is steady but slow — typically one to two small entries a month.
◆Where it's heading
Klipfolio reads as a maintained mid-market BI tool, holding share in the agency and SMB segments while Looker, Tableau, and Power BI take the enterprise wallet. The current focus on agency-friendly admin features (per-client viewer management, billing rebuild) suggests doubling down on that segment rather than chasing the embedded-analytics or AI-BI conversation.
◆Prediction
Expect more agency-flavored features (white-labeling polish, multi-client billing improvements), additional ad-platform connectors as APIs change, and incremental data-prep tooling. An AI-driven 'ask your data' surface seems unlikely on this cadence; if it ships, it will be the directional break.

◆Recent moves

    New permission: View and manage view-only users

    A new custom-role permission lets admins delegate viewer-user management — a clean unlock for self-managed agency client accounts where the customer owns viewer provisioning.

    Enhanced security

    MFA: 5-device memory and admin-enforced requirement

    Users can now remember up to five MFA devices and admins can require MFA for email-login accounts. Standard security-hardening progression.

    New and improved billing system

    Billing system rebuild. Detail beyond the headline was not captured; rebuilds usually unlock pricing flexibility (per-seat changes, multi-account billing).
