About
GameAnalytics is the leading growth platform for game studios of all sizes, offering a connected suite of AI-powered tools that transform raw player data into actionable insights. The platform's IQ Suite includes four core products: AnalyticsIQ for real-time acquisition, engagement, and monetization tracking; SegmentIQ for creating targeted player segments and running personalized LiveOps campaigns; PipelineIQ for managing flexible, prebuilt data pipelines without heavy infrastructure overhead; and MarketIQ for competitive benchmarking and advertising intelligence. A standout new feature is the GA MCP Server, which makes game data conversational — developers can ask plain-language questions via AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to get instant answers from their data. GameAnalytics supports studios building across mobile, Roblox, VR/AR, and PC/Console platforms, with SDKs and integrations to centralize all data in one place. Certified with ISO 27001, SOC 2, KidSAFE+, and ePrivacy, the platform is trusted by thousands of studios worldwide. It has driven proven results including a 55% increase in ARPDAU, 14% higher Day 1 retention, and 30% boosts in monetization performance. A free tier is available, with advanced plans for startups and enterprise studios.
