We definitely did take some inspiration there. I’ll add some attribution in the footer.



Along these lines, for those looking for modern (rrweb) session recording software first and foremost, it looks like Posthog is more cost efficient (though I’d love to be proven wrong on my math!). Do you have a rationale for why Highlight should be a preferred solution, feature-wise or otherwise?


Highlight is an application monitoring tool. Posthog is an analytics tool. I would say that it depends mostly on the buyer/audience.


There are definitely a bunch of overlap though between the two, most notably in session replay. Honestly if one of you could combine application analytics with monitoring, it would be a fantastic one stop resource. There is no reason in my mind why these two areas should be separate. Both are basically logging events of different types.


Implementation-wise, I agree. You run into similar engineering challenges in both cases. From a buyer/persona perspective it is very different as you go up-market.
