What is Keboola?
Keboola adds dark mode while it tightens the MCP server and retires idle workspaces.
Keboola's recent releases split between hygiene and AI-agent safety. The MCP server's query_data tool is now read-only, emailing API tokens is being retired, and idle Snowflake and BigQuery workspaces will be deactivated from 9 November. On the user side, data apps start faster on pre-built images, Kai gained shared team memory, and the UI now has dark mode.
What is RevenueCat?
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.
Keboola vs RevenueCat: editorial side-by-side
Keboola
5.0ANALYTICS
Keboola adds dark mode while it tightens the MCP server and retires idle workspaces.
◆ Current state
Keboola's recent releases split between hygiene and AI-agent safety. The MCP server's query_data tool is now read-only, emailing API tokens is being retired, and idle Snowflake and BigQuery workspaces will be deactivated from 9 November. On the user side, data apps start faster on pre-built images, Kai gained shared team memory, and the UI now has dark mode.
◆ Where it's heading
The platform is limiting what agents and stale resources can do while making its AI assistant and apps quicker to use. The pattern is deliberate cleanup ahead of wider agent usage, not new surface area.
◆ Prediction
Expect more guardrails around the MCP server and Kai, such as tighter scopes or approvals, alongside further deprecation notices with fixed dates.
RevenueCat
0.0ANALYTICS
Stretching from subscription infrastructure into hybrid subs+ads revenue tracking, with paywalls getting smarter.
◆ Current state
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.
◆ Where it's heading
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.
◆ Prediction
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.
