Is there any plan to add some sort of analytics to understand how the different assets are performing? From seller point of view, after publishing we are blind. Also it would be good to have some kind of notification like email when an assets sells.
Yeah analytics would be really good for us

We had it on the roadmap in 2024 but was removed in janaury 2025.
They said they will add it back but the roadmap is still the same for months now.
But it on their to do list apparently, not sure about it priority or progress tho, it kinda confusing whether or not they are willing to work on the analytic tool if it was removed from roadmap.

Hey, thanks for asking. Yes, we do have work on analytics in mind for the future, but it’s not in the immediate scope of things.
If you have specific metrics in mind please share them here, and I will add it to our requirements gathering documentation for this feature.

Yes please at the very least show us free redemptions and impressions and views for our store pages if possible. Those latter items will help us determine if changes are working or not.

Thank you for asking, Katerina!
Metrics that would be particularly helpful:
- Number of wishlists (by users who don’t yet own the product), total and by day
- Number of pageviews by day
- Number of clicks from Fab search results by day
- Number of clicks from Fab search results by search keyword
Among these the wishlist metrics are IMO the most crucial. A product priced too high will generate wishlists but not sales, which can both help inform pricing adjustments, as well as make it safer to go with higher initial prices.

Basics
- Realtime Sales Update
- Number of Page Views
→ Source of Traffic, CTR, Thumbnail Impressions, Search Terms Used to find your product, How many views resulted in wishlsit or buy, … - Number of wislists
- See when you attended which sale events or changed things like the pricing of a product (markers)
- Compare Months, Compare Years
- Monthly View, Weekly View, Yearly View, Daily View. Custom time periods need to be selectable
Product analytics
- See Sales only for one product
- Compare product statistics
- Average time on shop page
- Which links from the description get clicked the most
- Pro/Personal Pie Chart
I think these are most important for now.

I rather just have the Page views now, then all this useless crap by 2030. Just give us something now and then build on it.
I do remember seeing analytics when the website was announced and then seeing it on the roadmap. Which then just disappeared. I even have the original sales pitch, which I was exited for finally having proper analytics tool available:
So much of my early work was guesswork. Only by having access to best selling assets on sketchfab, was I able to start making decent money. If we had the access to trending searches or similar data, everyone would be happier. Buyers would get what they looked for, creators would make more money and the website would see more traffic and profit.
The more tools you give to your creators, which is the backbone of this website, the better.
Thank you for the detailed replies guys, I’ve documented them all in our feature requirements gathering doc.
As for the timeline - we’re currently focusing heavily on the buyer-facing features, making sure that the user experience of browsing and purchasing is easy and fun, improving engagement, discoverability and working hard on upping the overall revenue for the publishers.
I took a note however of this being a highly requested feature and will convey it to the team and see if there are some basics we might possibly include in the upcoming releases.

I would like to add the possibility to attach Google Ads/Analytics to it. We can’t really spend in marketing because we can’t know if any $ we spend ends up in a sale.
