Ep 7-$10M ARR with a "quirky, opensource product"? A Conversation with James Hawkins of PostHog
Product analytics is a weird, complex world. Posthog gives users (small and large) a way to dig into their user behaviour without vendor lock-in. Join me for a fascinating conversation with James Hawkins, co-founder of PostHog. We chat about
The Y Combinator journey...with shoes?
Why open-source? Strategy, spaghetti-slinging, luck and choices
Building with devs in mind- How PostHog shifted its focus.
