Usage analytics gives you an overview of how your team uses 9brains. This lets you track adoption rates, identify popular models and observe usage over time.
Select time range
Section titled “Select time range”At the top edge you select the time range:
- 7 days
- 30 days
- 90 days
All metrics and charts automatically adjust to the selected time range.
Key metrics (KPIs)
Section titled “Key metrics (KPIs)”Five metric cards give you a quick overview:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Active users | Number of users who were active in the time range, incl. adoption rate |
| Sessions | Number of started chat sessions |
| Messages | Total number of sent messages |
| Knowledge queries | How often the AI accessed knowledge bases |
| Documents | Total number of documents in knowledge bases, incl. new ones in the time range |
Charts and analyses
Section titled “Charts and analyses”Usage trends
Section titled “Usage trends”A line chart shows the usage development over the selected time range. This lets you see at a glance whether usage is rising, staying constant or falling.
Model usage
Section titled “Model usage”A bar chart shows which AI models are used most often. This helps with the decision of which models should remain activated.
Tool usage
Section titled “Tool usage”A bar chart shows which integrations and tools are used most.
Knowledge management
Section titled “Knowledge management”A chart shows the trend of knowledge queries, how often the AI falls back on knowledge bases to generate answers.
Quota overview
Section titled “Quota overview”At the top edge of the page you see the total quota of the workspace, the sum of all individual quotas of your licenses. This lets you see at a glance how much of the monthly budget has already been used and how much room remains.
You can find more on the topic of quota and how it is composed under Budget & Quota.
User activity
Section titled “User activity”A detailed table lists the activity per user:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| User | Name of the user |
| License | License type (Pro, Business, Max, Knowledge Only) |
| Quota | Individual usage in relation to the quota |
| Sessions | Number of chat sessions |
| Messages | Number of messages |
| Knowledge queries | How often the AI retrieved content from knowledge bases for the user |
| Knowledge contributions | How often the user handed content to the AI for saving into the knowledge base |
| Last activity | When the user was last active |
| Primary model | The most frequently used AI model |
The table is sortable and searchable, so you can search specifically for individual users.
Adoption
Section titled “Adoption”Additional metrics on usage adoption help you understand how well 9brains is being adopted by your team and where there is still potential.
Agent overview (admin)
Section titled “Agent overview (admin)”At the bottom of the usage analytics, a table lists all agents in the workspace, regardless of whether they are personal or shared. As an admin, this lets you see at a glance which agents are particularly active, how much they cost and who runs them.
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Agent | Name, emoji and owner of the agent |
| Cost allocation | Personal quota of the owner or workspace quota (for shared agents) |
| Usage | Usage so far in the selected time range |
| Cost cap | Monthly safety net (default €10, adjustable at any time by owner or admin) |
| Utilization | Usage in % of the cap; red when close to the limit, yellow when the agent is paused |
| Top model | Which AI model the agent uses most |
| Runs | Number of executions in the time range |
| Status | Active or paused |
The table is sortable by name, usage, cap, utilization and number of runs. A totals row at the end shows the overall usage and the sum of all cost caps.
Admin actions per agent
Section titled “Admin actions per agent”Via the actions menu (three dots) at the end of each row:
- Edit cost cap & models: Admin override independent of the owner. You can lower or raise the monthly cap, set an early warning threshold and restrict the list of allowed models.
- Pause / Resume: Stops the agent immediately or puts it back into operation. For paused agents, neither chats nor scheduled (cron/webhook) executions run.
- Delete: Removes the agent permanently. When deleting, triggers are also stopped, webhook URLs invalidated and workspace content (
AGENTS.md, reference files, run results) removed.
These actions act independently of ownership, admins can also override personal agents of other users.
When is this relevant? Typical occasions: an agent consumes more quota than planned; a cron trigger runs amok; an employee leaves the company and their agents should be cleanly shut down.
