Risks

Competition from privacy-focused platforms like Matomo and Plausible is increasing.

Scaling usage-based pricing may challenge larger enterprise adoption.

Reliance on free tier could risk financial stability if users don't convert.

Differentiation

The platform replaces the modern data stack, focusing on product development.

PostHog's usage-based pricing decreases with scale, offering cost efficiency.
