The word "in-depth" is correctly spelled with a hyphen when used as an adjective, to mean through or detailed (e.g. an in-depth analysis).

In its adverb use, it remains a two-word prepositional phrase, "in depth."

In-depth is a compound word, meaning detailed or comprehensive.

Compound words, which contain a hyphen, are not considered to be a single word. If over time the word drops its hyphen (as when light-house became lighthouse) it would then be considered one word.

Is indepth analysis hyphenated?

It is never one word: there is no such English as "indepth." But you should definitely separate the words "in depth," or more commonly, put a hyphen between them: "in-depth analysis." This is probably more correct because "in-depth" is a compound adjective (this occurs when two words are put together with a hyphen to form an adjective; other examples are "well-deserved" and "long-awaited").
