About PostHog

We help developers build successful products by giving them a suite of products to analyze, test, observe, and deploy new features. We currently offer product and web analytics, session replay, feature flags, A/B testing, a CDP, SQL access, and a data warehouse… and there’s plenty more to come.

PostHog was created as an open-source project during Y Combinator's W20 cohort. We had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 with a product that was just 4 weeks old. Since then, more than 110,000 companies have installed the platform. We've had huge success with our paid upgrades, raised $27m from some of the world's top investors, and have shown strong product-led growth – 97% driven by word of mouth.

We're growing quickly, but sustainably. We're also default alive, averaging 10% monthly revenue growth, and with more than $10m ARR. We're staying focused on building an awesome product for end users, hiring a handful of exceptional team members, and seeing fantastic growth as a result.

What we value

• We are open source. Building a huge community around a free-for-life product is key to PostHog's strategy.

• We aim to become the most transparent company ever. In order to enable teams to make great decisions, we share as much information as we can. In our public handbook,everyone can read about our roadmap, how we pay (or even let go of) people, what our strategy is, and who we have raised money from.

• Working autonomously and maximizing impact – we don’t tell anyone what to do. Everyone chooses what to work on next based on what is going to have the biggest impact on our customers.

• Solving big problems – we haven't built our defining feature yet. We are all about shipping fast, talking to users, and iterating.
