Company mission
To increase the number of successful products in the world.
Our take
An unforeseen but surprisingly common side effect of building software products - especially open source - is that people may use your software in ways you didn’t foresee. PostHog develops analytics products which help developers to understand how people use their products.
Aiming to be a one-stop shop for its clients, PostHog’s platform provides full visibility over the impact of developers' work. This is done by giving developers complete access to the underlying data of their users’ data, giving them full control and understanding of their product.
Spun out of the Y Combinator programme, PostHog boasts SpaceX, Staples, Airbus and Hasura as clients. Its platform is still launching new features and aims to do so continuously, providing even more value for its customers with 10 products in 1 to date. It’s also expanded into mobile and through clever marketing, is proving to be a popular alternative to large competitors like Google Analytics.
