Companies & Work
PostHog
PostHog helps engineers build better products. We provide everything they need to make sure they are building something that people want. This means - product analytics, session replays, feedback tools, feature flags, experimentation, and a datawarehouse (with SQL) with one click data imports from the places you use.
PostHog can be deployed to the cloud, or self-hosted on existing infrastructure, removing the need to send data externally.
PostHog was created as an open source project during Y Combinator's W20 cohort and had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 - with a product that was just 4 weeks old. Since then, more than 40,000 companies have installed the platform, we're doing $MMs in revenue, and have a community of 120K developers - 97% driven by word of mouth.
Despite the tech market, we're default alive and doing better than ever!
We've been averaging ~10% monthly revenue growth, we are [default alive](http://www.paulgraham.com/aord.html), and we didn't raised a huge / now-overpriced round in 2021. While others are focused on layoffs and struggling to grow into huge valuations, we're focusing on an awesome product for end users, hiring (a handful of) exceptional team members and seeing fantastic increases in revenue as a result.
