Clicky launches an official browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
Clicky is a real-time web analytics service that ships rarely. On 11 November it released an official browser extension for Chrome, with Firefox pending store approval. A week earlier the Account API moved from username and password to proper API keys, and both APIs began accepting POST requests.
Fulcrum ships Follow Mode to iOS and Android and tightens MCP sign-in.
Fulcrum, a field data collection platform, released Follow Mode on iOS and Android 2611.0.0, keeping the map centred on the collector, and Android now accepts a required GPS accuracy as fine as 0.1 m. The weekly web release redesigned the MCP authorization page to show the requesting client and organization, and fixed blank Report Builder PDFs and App MCP form validation. The Insights AI assistant opened to all customers in October.

Releases are infrequent and focused on hygiene: bot filtering, tracking-code internals and now API credentials. Nothing in the entries points to new analytics features.
The entries do not support a confident call; the most likely next items are further security or bot-filtering changes rather than new reports.

The Insights AI assistant opened to all customers in October.
Two tracks continue: precision GPS for field crews, with external receivers and accuracy settings, and controlled access for outside AI assistants through the MCP server. Most releases are fixes on a weekly mobile and web cadence.
Expect the GPS integration to leave beta and the MCP server to move past alpha with OAuth as the default sign-in.
