Currently in private beta, Wild said Keen has big plans coming up, including building its own visualization layer and exiting from private beta into a freemium business model. Even though enterprise developers will likely always be Keen's revenue-generating users, Wild said the company's advisers have pushed the importance of building a strong developer base in order to attract mindshare, improve the product and, maybe most importantly, spur bottom-up adoption of Keen by their employers a la New Relic.
