PostHog

Product analytics, session recording, feature flagging and a/b testing that you can self-host (alternative to Mixpanel, Amplitude, Heap, HotJar, Optimizely).

PostHog is an open‑source platform that combines product analytics, web traffic monitoring, session replay, feature flagging, experiments, error tracking, surveys, data warehousing, pipelines, LLM analytics and automation workflows in a single self‑hosted service. It captures events automatically or via manual instrumentation, lets users explore behavior with visual dashboards or SQL, and provides GA‑like metrics for conversions, web vitals and revenue. Session recordings and error alerts help diagnose issues, while feature flags and no‑code experiments enable controlled rollouts and statistical testing of changes.

The system targets engineers and product teams that need comprehensive insight and control over their applications without relying on external SaaS providers. By offering a free tier and a permissive MIT license, it is suitable for startups, enterprises and hobby projects that prefer to run the software on their own infrastructure and keep data in‑house.

Distinctive aspects include the breadth of integrated tools—spanning analytics, monitoring, feature management and automation—delivered as a single open‑source codebase that can be deployed via Docker or other self‑hosting methods. The platform also supports data sync with external services, real‑time pipelines to many destinations, and a community‑driven development model.
