Key advantages
Built for PMs, not engineers
PostHog is excellent if you have developers comfortable with HogQL and filter logic. Inslytic is for the PM who wants an answer in English, not a query to write.
Auto-detection, not auto-capture
PostHog auto-captures clicks but leaves interpretation to you. Inslytic auto-detects the SaaS patterns — signup, activation, churn — and presents them as working funnels.
Flat bill, no product stacking
PostHog's bill stacks usage-based pricing across six products. Spending caps help, but aren't on by default — leading to the well-known $25 → $1,500 month stories. Inslytic is one flat tier.
Switch from PostHog
Product analytics your PMs can use — no HogQL, no product stacking, no surprise bills.
