Why PostHog?

PostHog is literally designed to be a no-brainer

PostHog is an entire suite of products that help you build successful products – we have more products than anyone else.

We put all the context you need in one place, so you can focus on your users instead of fixing endless data integrations.

We have 10+ products today, but even if we don't offer it yet, we will eventually.

We're going to build every piece of SaaS you need to make your product successful. You read that right. We've already got the world's best track record at delivering them by being the widest with so many customers.

You've probably already seen the products we do have. For the stuff we don't, you can see our entire public roadmap and ask for what you need.

PostHog has the lowest pricing for every product

Sure, it's great to have everything you need in one place, but only if you know you're getting a deal.

PostHog is always cheaper than the cheapest major competitor, so you know you don't have to compare pricing for each new product.

And every product has a generous free tier, so you can always try it out before paying anything at all.

PostHog just does the right thing

We polled our customers - one of the top four reasons they recommend PostHog is "developer brand". To us that means we do the right thing for our customers:

  • We roll out pricing decreases to our entire existing customer base
  • We have side hustle insurance - we refund if your thing goes viral by accident on HackerNews
  • We've got a huge open source project (>20k stars), and beyond this you can inspect all our code in our repo so you can see exactly what we're doing with your data
  • We don't do outbound sales - we'd rather spend our time building more products
  • You can see all our pricing publicly there's a reason other companies don't list their pricing!
  • We don’t sell products at a loss - we run the company default alive. This means we’ve never had layoffs, and we don’t take huge risks that could result in the company disappearing overnight.
  • We don’t screw you on contract terms like auto-renewal.
  • You can use all our stuff monthly until you want to lock things in with us. We don’t pressure people.
  • The way we write our content. Just read it and you’ll get what I mean. It’s more honest and not like marketing-speak you've come to expect from other companies - it actively helps developers build successful products. That’s our mission.
  • PostHog has zero intention of selling our business. We want to see just how crazy huge this gigantic software stack can get - and we think that it will reach at least $100bn in value. We’ll be around and fighting for a long, long time. It’s our life’s work.
  • You can also see how our entire company operates - our manual for our salespeople, marketing team, and so on. You can even see what they’re paid - it’s all in our public handbook. You won't get this level of transparency from most companies!
  • Cool company merch you'll actually want to wear

The reason we uniquely love doing all these sorts of things is that we grow because of our reputation on the internet, whereas every single competitor grows by salespeople. We are very, very proudly inbound only. This aligns us with customers. Long term, that is what wins.

Support from actually technical people

You can literally see the engineers that built each of our products on our website.

We’ve also got dedicated support people - they’ve all got engineering backgrounds too. If they can’t answer, you get the OG engineers mentioned above. Frankly our support engineers answer most stuff when it gets deep. We don’t want you waiting on our triage.

Even our marketing team is mostly engineers. Our salespeople can all write code, too.

“Everybody codes” has made it to our list of values.

We get that you aren't a lemming (they refuse to type in our url with their little paws), but it's probably a good sign when something is very popular.

We have over 100,000 customers using our products. Just under a quarter of a million engineers use us. That's far, far more than any other vendor – most have around 1-3k customers. It's what happens when the internet loves you.

65% of every Y Combinator batch (the world's best accelerator for startups) use our products.

Who doesn't PostHog work well for?

People who don't like letting their engineering teams make decisions. If you are happy to let engineering drive in your organization then we're usually a slam dunk.

Sometimes we might not have every feature compared to a leading competitor, but we've seen pretty much no one cares about that compared to the advantages of having everything in one place – and we'll always keep building!

Every product has a huge free tier

Just try it. You don't even need to put in a credit card. We give away more free stuff than anyone else. What you'd pay $100s for on other platforms, you get here for free, every month.
