BI Pixie

Power BI engagement analytics - track page views, clicks, filters, and surveys with invisible pixels
Power BI tells you how many people opened a report. But do you know which visuals they clicked? Which filters they applied? Whether they found it useful?
BI Pixie fills this visibility gap. It instruments your Power BI reports with invisible tracking pixels that capture real user behavior: page views, visual clicks, filter selections, NPS surveys, and written feedback. No changes to your report layout, no impact on end users. Data and analytics leaders use BI Pixie to understand adoption, improve report design, and measure the real value of their BI investments.
How It Works
- Start your free trial: sign in with your Microsoft account. No credit card required.
- Track your reports: select any Power BI report to instrument. BI Pixie adds invisible tracking pixels automatically.
- See real engagement data: view dashboards showing who uses your reports, where they click, and what they think.
- Improve and measure: use engagement insights to optimize report design and demonstrate BI ROI.
What You Can Track
BI Pixie measures report usage across four areas:
- Adoption: Who is using your reports, how often, and which reports get the most attention.
- Engagement: Visual click heatmaps show exactly where users interact. See which visuals get clicks and which get ignored.
- User Satisfaction: Embedded NPS and feedback surveys collect user opinions directly inside reports. No separate survey tools needed.
- Security and Auditing: Track filter selections and data access patterns. Detect potential data leakage in reports protected by Row-Level Security.
Key Features
