Pricing
What PostHog costs
Read from the official pricing page on August 15, 2026. Vendors change pricing; verify against the source before budgeting.
$0.00005/event (product analytics, first 1M events/mo free; base plan $0/mo)
Usage-based per product: the bill scales with events, recordings, flag requests, survey responses, and warehouse rows. Seats are unlimited and free. Optional flat platform packages (Boost $250/mo, Scale $750/mo, Enterprise quote) layer on support and controls.
Genuinely generous: $0 forever, no credit card, unlimited team members, and a monthly free allowance across every product (1M events, 5K recordings, and more). PostHog states most companies stay free. The allowance persists after adding a card.
AI is metered separately: PostHog AI/Max ($5 of monthly credits free), AI observability (100K events/mo free, then metered), Replay Vision ($25 of credits free). Group analytics bills from $0.000071/event. RBAC and SSO enforcement sit behind the paid platform packages.

What PostHog does well
Transparent, fully self-serve usage pricing with zero seat tax and a real free tier: the whole suite (analytics, replay, flags, experiments, surveys, warehouse) under one roof, no sales call, and a published per-unit rate card down to fractions of a cent - rare honesty in the analytics category.
Where it breaks for revenue-driven product work
PostHog measures behavior, not the feedback-to-revenue loop. There is no native tie from a feature request to the ARR of the accounts asking, no ranking of feedback by retention, expansion, or deal value, and no CRM or revenue join out of the box (group analytics groups usage by account; it does not weight by revenue). Customer context is not carried through delivery: no roadmap object keeps requesting accounts attached from insight to ship. Post-ship adoption is measurable as events, but verifying revenue or expansion impact against the accounts a feature was built for requires external joins. It is an analytics and experimentation platform, not a revenue-outcome system.
The decision
PostHog vs AIOProductOS, on the questions that decide it
| Question | PostHog | AIOProductOS |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing shape | $0 base, usage-metered per product; packages $250-$750/mo for controls | Flat by tier from $199/mo; events never meter the bill |
| What the data model centers on | Events, sessions, funnels, cohorts | The customer record: revenue, feedback, work, usage joined |
| Feedback tied to account ARR | Not native; surveys count responses, not revenue | Every request carries its account's plan and MRR |
| Post-ship revenue verification | Event adoption visible; revenue impact needs external BI | Adoption, MRR adopted, retention on the shipped feature |
Choose PostHog when engineering-led teams want self-serve behavioral analytics, flags, and experiments with no procurement and no seat tax: the free tier and rate card are the most honest in analytics.
Choose AIOProductOS when analytics has to answer commercial questions: which paying accounts adopted, what revenue a feature retained, which requests carry the most ARR. The join is the product; PostHog can keep running alongside via connector.
