This solution provides new industry capabilities, including the Analytics Experience Score℠ where apps and data consumer behavior is valued from 0 to 100, within a modern, AI-driven Data Product Marketplace. And unlike other scores, no surveys are needed :)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — August 19, 2025
PieAX Defining the Analytics Experience℠
From PieCart to PieAX: A new era for measuring, packaging, and maximizing analytics value
East Hills, NY – PieCart LLC today announced a major evolution in its mission to humanize business intelligence: the official launch of PieAX Defining the Analytics Experience℠.
Formerly known as PieCart, the reimagined PieAX Platform integrates three powerful components that work together to solve one of the most expensive hidden problems in modern enterprises… in-house analytics value leakage.
-
Usage360®: Measure the truth. Tracks and scores analytics engagement with precision, revealing what’s used, what’s ignored, and where value is leaking.
-
MyAnalytics®: Package the experience. A personalized, unified Data Product Marketplace that brings all BI tools together in one place, making analytics easy, intuitive, and fun to explore.
-
Pie the AI Concierge℠ + Slice the AI Engine℠: Maximize the journey. AI-driven personalization, automation, and gamification that guides each consumer to higher engagement.
PieAX’s growing team each has decades of experience turning data into analytics solutions that drive value. PieAX also offers consulting, advisory and implementation services to maximize the journey and ensure your dashboards, reports and datasets are “data product” ready!
“Companies spend millions on in-house analytics tools, but without adoption, they’re just expensive wallpaper,” said Jonathan Cheris, Founder and CEO. “Our mission is to turn data into daily habits, not just dashboards. With PieAX, every click, every insight, and every decision has measurable ROI.”
The Analytics Experience Score℠
At the heart of PieAX is the Analytics Experience Score℠, a multi-dimensional scoring model built to give leaders a crystal-clear view of analytics value via an initial assessment followed by ongoing updates.
Think of the Analytics Experience Score as PieAX’s secret sauce, combining Recency, Frequency, Monetary, and Consumption metrics to measure:
-
Overall Environment Performance – How the organization’s analytics ecosystem is performing.
-
App-Level Impact – Which BI tools, dashboards, or reports are delivering the most value while highlighted those worthy of developer investments.
-
Consumer-Level Engagement – How each individual is consuming and acting on insights, what’s working and what isn’t for teams.
By translating usage into both a score (0 to 100) and a dollar value, the Analytics Experience Score helps leaders make informed decisions on where to invest, improve, or retire analytics assets. And unlike other scores, no surveys are needed :)
From Value Lost to Value Gained
Before PieAX, organizations were losing millions in unrealized analytics value. Tools sat unused, decisions lagged, and adoption stalled. Now, the story flips:
-
Value Lost: Shadow spreadsheets, underused dashboards, low adoption rates.
-
Value Gained: Personalized analytics journeys, higher engagement, faster decisions, and a proven dollar return.
And yes, PieAX makes it fun with gamification built into the experience. Consumers earn points, badges, and recognition as they explore data, hit engagement milestones, and contribute to a data-driven culture.
Who Should Care: PieAX is built for Chief Data Officers, Chief Information Officers, Chief Executive Officers, and analytics leaders committed to turning BI investments into measurable, lasting value.
