Stretching from subscription infrastructure into hybrid subs+ads revenue tracking, with paywalls getting smarter.
RevenueCat is broadening from subscription-only to subscription-plus-ads with in-app ad revenue tracking now in public beta — apps using AdMob or AppLovin can send ad events through the SDK and see ad and sub revenue side by side. Paywalls have gained meaningful logic depth (Paywall Rules to show/hide components by intro-offer eligibility or custom variables) and the iOS/Android fallback paywall now auto-styles using the app icon's dominant color. Operational tooling has caught up: archived offerings/products/entitlements, OAuth token visibility and revocation, predicted-LTV winners in Experiments.
AgencyAnalytics adds autonomous AI client profiling and historical AI citation tracking — two moves that redefine what the platform can do for agencies.
AgencyAnalytics is a marketing agency reporting platform shipping at high velocity in 2026, with two distinct capability expansions alongside steady integration work. AgencyAI now builds client context profiles automatically when a new client is added — pulling website and business data before the user asks any questions. Separately, AI Tracker gained historical prompt tracking: agencies can now show clients exactly when and how their citations in AI-generated answers shifted over time, turning AI visibility into a measurable, provable service.

The product is moving from 'subscription billing infra' to 'mobile monetization platform.' Ad revenue tracking is the headline because it changes who RevenueCat is for — every freemium app with mixed monetization, not just sub-driven apps. Paywall Rules suggest the company is going deeper on the merchandising layer rather than ceding it to MMP-adjacent tools. The Experiments-side LTV predictions and locale-aware paywalls signal continued investment in the optimization story.
Expect the in-app ad revenue beta to GA with deeper SDK support for more ad networks, more sophisticated Paywall Rules conditions (likely user-segment and behavioral triggers), and tighter Experiments + ad-revenue correlation as customers compare hybrid monetization mixes.

Separately, AI Tracker gained historical prompt tracking: agencies can now show clients exactly when and how their citations in AI-generated answers shifted over time, turning AI visibility into a measurable, provable service.
AgencyAnalytics is positioning around two 2026 trends simultaneously: autonomous AI workflows for agency operations (scheduled AgencyAI prompts, auto-built client context) and AI search visibility as a client deliverable (AI Tracker, Ahrefs AI Visibility integration). The Ahrefs and Semrush integration expansions — covering Site Explorer, Site Audit, SERP features, AI Visibility — are making the platform a single-pane analytics surface rather than a reporting wrapper.
The auto-context feature will expand to existing clients (the release notes it's working on this), and AI Tracker will likely gain competitor comparison and citation source attribution as agencies demand proof of AI optimization work.
