Product at a glance
- What it is
- Open-source, cookie-free product analytics: one script covers traffic, funnels, error tracking, feature flags and more, plus an AI analyst that shows the query behind each answer.
- Who it is for
- Developers and small product teams, many of them startups, moving off Google Analytics, PostHog or Plausible.
- How it charges
- Free covers 10,000 events a month with no card; Hobby is $9.99/mo for 30,000 events; Pro is $49.99/mo for 1 million events and can scale up, with a spending cap that stops collection rather than overcharging.
