PostHog aims to equip every developer to build successful products. We do this by providing the tools teams need to capture events, analyze data, record user sessions, conduct experiments, deploy new features, track errors, run surveys, provision data warehouses, observe LLM-powered features, and more, all in one platform. And we're constantly shipping new things! PostHog is the new way to build products. Not a more modern data stack. Not faster flags. Not prettier dashboards. Everything.

How to not break up with your cofounder

1. You need to be equal partners

Tim (my cofounder and co-CEO) and I started with quite asymmetric experience.

I had previously been a VP of sales, responsible for sales, support, and account management. Tim was an insanely talented, 23-year-old engineer, and was much earlier in his career I m nearly 10 years older.

Review PostHog?

Reviewers see PostHog as a strong, developer-friendly analytics tool that combines event tracking, session replay, feature flags, funnels, and experiments in one place. They repeatedly praise fast setup, flexible event modeling, self-hosting, open-source transparency, and clear dashboards that help teams find UX issues, drop-offs, and rollout problems quickly. Several founders, including the makers of Roundtable and ProductBridge, say it helped them monitor adoption and guide product decisions. The main caveat: it can feel more technical, less polished, or more than non-dev teams need.

What's great

easy integration (8)open source (16)detailed analytics (23)

PostHog gives us a single platform for analytics, session replay, feature flags, A/B testing, and funnels — no stitching together 5 separate tools. Self-hostable, open source, and built for developers.

What needs improvement

Session replay needs privacy controls for sensitive form fields. Feature flags aren't tied to our subscription plans yet. We're not tracking match_without_full_team — that's a missed conversion signal. And our funnel

visibility from paywall view → subscription start is still blind.

vs Alternatives

Mixpanel, Amplitude, and Google Analytics. PostHog beat them on: open source, no per-event pricing, session replay built-in, and feature flags without a separate tool.

I’ve been using PostHog for about 3 months, and it has quickly become one of my favorite tools for understanding and improving our product. What I like: The web and product analytics dashboards are intuitive and provide deep insights into user behavior. Session replay has been incredibly helpful in identifying UX issues and understanding how real users interact with features. The feature flag functionality makes controlled rollouts super easy — no need for extra infrastructure or tools. I love that everything (analytics, replays, feature flags, and experiments) is built into one platform, which saves a ton of time switching between tools.

I think they have a great platform and right abstractions of events, actions, etc. that's getting more feature rich every week and it's great that since it's still a somewhat young project they are really open to feedback and suggestions and actually are able to continually deliver improvement in the product on an ongoing basis which is pretty delightful as an end user. Last thing that's a biggie for me too is the great culture and openness of the project and team - it's just been so easy and painless to work with them. Even if we do run into some sort of issue or feature we might want to see in the product - its as simple as a feature request in the GH repo and can have full transparency and tracking on it from there as well as see if other users feel the same way. So this lets you feel like you can easily be part of the community around PostHog and help to continually make it better.
