Get deeper insights with session analyses updates

This April we updated our User Sessions chart to support more in-depth session-based analyses. Amplitude users are now able to:

  • Filter by first property value, last property value, and session duration
  • Use formulas to calculate metrics like bounce rate, entry/exit rates, and unique users 
  • Group by sessions after events are grouped together as a session (“sessionized”)
  • View data  at hourly and quarterly intervals

Learn more about the User Sessions chart.

With these updates, users can perform more detailed session-based analyses, utilizing the enhanced features for more powerful insights tailored to their taxonomies within the new User Sessions chart.

Create session-based cohorts

In this latest release, you can now build and return a list of users in a cohort for sessions filtered by duration, containing an event, first property value, or last property value. Bonus points?  Syncing this cohort of users downstream to other connected tools is fully supported.

Create custom session metrics

In addition to session-based cohorts, we’ve also added customization of session metrics and updated our existing out-of-the-box session metrics to use our SDK’s Default Page Viewed event (learn more). With these updates, users are able to create custom session metrics to fit their taxonomies and recreate them in the new User Sessions chart. We are rolling this update out to 100% of users over the next week!

Auto-tune traffic with multi-armed bandits

Ready to meet the intersection of testing and personalization? Amplitude Experiment customers on our Enterprise package now have access to multi-armed bandit experiments.

This advanced algorithm auto-tunes traffic as a winning variant emerges throughout the experiment and is ideal for growth teams running time-sensitive promotions like Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

For product teams multi-armed bandits are ideal for server-side tests like search algorithms or to test machine learning models. Users who combine this capability with our cohorting capabilities will find even more ways to personalize customer experiences.

Now, your default deployment is simply your project API key from Analytics. This feature will help product teams save time and start building faster while reducing the key management burden on developers.
