PostHog

PostHog/posthog

An open-source alternative to Amplitude.

PostHog is the leading platform for building self-driving products. Our developer tools – AI observability, analytics, session replay, flags, experiments, error tracking, logs, and more – capture all the context agents need to diagnose problems, uncover opportunities, and ship fixes. Steer it all from Slack, web, desktop, or the MCP. (from the repository)

What a business may do with it

Not identifiedNOASSERTION

GitHub could not match this licence to a standard one. It may be custom or source-available; read the repository’s LICENSE file before relying on it.

This describes the licence family GitHub identified, not legal advice about this project. The repository’s own LICENSE file is what binds you.

Run it yourself

PostHog’s README does not show a docker run, docker compose up or helm install in a code block, so this page will not guess one. It may be a desktop app, a library, or documented on its website.

  • The pairing with Amplitude and the category come from opensourcealternative.to, a community directory of open-source alternatives. We re-read it weekly.
  • Star momentum comes from our own daily readings of the repository. How we collect data
