Moviepass was bought by what is, primarily, an analytics firm. Though apparently so is Robinhood. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4205379-robinhood-making-mil

  This article implies for example that on a $10,000 trade that Robinhood would be compensated $0.80 (0.00008 per $1 of trade). That seems pretty modest.

  That's not "analytics"; that's order internalization, something almost every retail brokerage does†, both because they get paid to do it and because it improves outcomes for their customers. † You could argue either way about whether IB gets paid to "internalize" orders or whether the order flow rebates they get are something else.
