🚨 There are more cool things in PostHog:
- Max AI has evolved into PostHog AI. It can now navigate the app, create feature flags, and is automatically aware of the active tab.
- PostHog AI's updated chat UI now shows its reasoning, planning, and tool calling all in real-time.
- You can now schedule changes to *existing* feature flags, making it even easier to manage release conditions.
- Export up to 15 second session replay clips to MP4 or GIFs. Memes not guaranteed.
- Our new beta SDK Doctor will alert you when you're running an out-of-date SDK
- Android and Flutter SDKs now support error tracking (beta)
- Long session replays now take less time to buffer by only loading 15 mins at a time
- New tab UI that shows you most recently visited pages at the top
- You can now pin tabs, so you can now have pinned tabs inside your pinned tabs. We call this Tabception
- Sort error tracking issues by revenue impact (if you've setup revenue analytics, so you should probably do that!)
- TikTok Ads as a data source
we raised some money
warning: actually non-meme content...
@timgl and I jumped on some quick calls and ended up raising a $70 million series D led by Stripe.
and of course we decided to announce this with the help of our newly created irl hedgehog Max.
see reply for a link to a post on how we’re going to use the $$$, but here’s the tl;dr version:
- we'll build even more products, like messaging, support, CRM, a lot more
- all the tools + your data + Max AI = shareholder value

I can mostly take for granted that startups in YC use @posthog

As a former Google Analytics PM, I am shocked by how much easier it is to get the insights I want from @posthog.
I’m still struggling to figure out how to filter for event values in GA. Figured it out in PostHog in 1 minute. 👏

Me and the team in a Waymo on our way to look at The PostHog CRT
used a raspberry pi to set up our @posthog graph + main kpi on the old crt tv everyone sees when they walk into the office.
Good thing we went from terminal to UIs, otherwise the LLMs would have been in charge at this point.

The power of asking for help:
Wow.
Thanks to this tweet - I've been DMing with the CEO of Posthog about some upcoming pricing changes that should make this 5-10x cheaper for my use case.
Their customer support also reached out and already refunded me $600.
Amazing tool. Awesome company and team. Reminds me of Klaviyo in the early days. They will be a $1B business.
My Posthog bill was nearly $1,000 last month.
Love the product but I hate their pricing model (pay per pageview), especially since we run a website that gets a lot of pageviews.
Any ideas on how I can get it lower?
