About

We're building the kind of company we've always wanted to work for - open, transparent, and focused on helping engineers build better products. PostHog started as open-source product analytics because we couldn't find tools that treated developers the way we wanted to be treated. Now we've grown into a complete product and data platform, with everything from analytics to session replay, feature flags, experiments, and even a built-in data warehouse. The whole idea is to give engineers every tool they need in one place, without the usual SaaS headaches like aggressive sales teams or opaque pricing. We ship fast, stay default-alive, and make decisions based on what's actually useful for the people building products - not what sounds good in a boardroom. Our mission is simple: equip every developer to build successful products by giving them the data and tools they need to understand their users and ship with confidence.

We're a bit different from most software companies. Our entire company handbook is public - you can see our roadmap, how we compensate people, and even our sales strategy. We've never had layoffs because we run the company to be sustainable, not to chase growth at all costs. Our pricing is usage-based with generous free tiers because we believe engineers should be able to try things without jumping on calls with salespeople. When we say we're here for the long haul, we mean it - we want to build a generational company that reaches $100B in value by actually being useful, not by playing tricks. Today, over 190,000 teams use PostHog, including 65% of every Y Combinator batch. We're proof that you can build a massive, sustainable company by treating people the way you'd want to be treated.
