Definition
An analytics call is the statement in your application code that records an event somewhere it can be analysed. `supabase.from('events').insert({ name: 'checkout_completed', plan_tier })` is an analytics call. So is an `upsert`, an `rpc(...)` that records an event, or a server-side insert into an event table.
Why it matters
Every dashboard, funnel, and retention chart your team trusts is downstream of these calls. If a call disappears, gets renamed, or fires from a different code path, the dashboard keeps drawing. Just from worse data.
