In 2025, we interviewed 2,431 candidates and we observed 2 things:
1. Over 70% of the people we hired applied and had no referral.
2. Candidates who asked the best questions were more likely to get hired.
So we made this video about the questions we wish people asked more.

We had so much fun!
70+ people came to our forth @dev-korea.com event with @posthog.com in Seoul yesterday!
Huge thanks to the speakers, PostHog, Google for Startups campus, Cuckoo and all who made this possible. Planning the next event right now!! 🚀

Created the perfect filter for session replays? Now you can save
1. Use it later
2. Have your teammates use it
3. Build on it to make other filters
When filtering replays, just give your filter a name and click 'Save filters' to add it to the 'Saved filters' tab.
A quick quality of life upgrade..
It's now possible to edit feature flag variants while an experiment is in draft, and create an experiment with an existing feature flag.
You can now open web vitals results from web analytics as a product analytics insight with a single click.
This is handy for a lot of reasons, such as if you want to run a deep analysis on how results correlate to other metrics, or if you want to create threshold alerts for your web vitals.
TIME is what blocks people from building new software. That's why hackathons like the one this weekend with @ElevenLabs work: calendars are blocked, people have given themselves permission to learn, play, make and ship. (For PostHog, that's called a Tuesday. And Thursday.) But we're here for it.
us: we're a totally serious company
also us:
Until recently I thought @posthog.com was just a cool company with a great brand and an actual (not cringe) sense of humour.
But I've been a customer for ~6 weeks and damn, it's a great product too.
Max wishes a happy Valentine's Day to Joe and Lauren.

We have news
huh, sorry about that. seems like our email provider did something weird with the unsub link, so thank you letting us know.
would you like use to remove you from the list manually?
You can now assign issues to groups in our error tracking beta, enabling you to quickly sort through errors from the dashboard.
It's especially useful if you either don't know who to blame for an error specifically, or you just want to annoy an entire team of engineers all at once.
Do you dream of building talking, autonomous robots, but in a totally-not-weird way?
PostHog is sponsoring the WORLDWIDE HACKATHON, hosted by ElevenLabs and a16z.
Get prizes, plus PostHog credits (when you build with our LLM observability product).
You can now create a new issue in Linear from within PostHog, complete with a linked recording and custom title and description. Nice.
This is what peak performance looks like
Our LLM observability beta is progressing quickly, with a new Typescript SDK, a Vercel AI SDK, and full support for Anthropic.
See our docs for more info: https://posthog.com/docs/ai-engineering
WTF is activation and why should engineers care?

another brutal day of being a founder and having to choose between browsing linkedin and buying .ai domains i'll never use
startup idea: datadog, but for cat people.
datadog is a $48b company. there are about 3 dog people for every 2 cat people. using this ratio, we can comfortably assume DataCat would be a $30b startup.
who is building this?
Projects now support multiple environments!
This means you can have separate `Dev` and `Prod` environments setup within the same project, and switch between them while viewing a dashboard to see how the data differs between environments.
See pinned post for how to join beta.
You can now track your website's Core Web Vitals in our web analytics dashboard.
Opt in to the new beta (see pinned post) and you'll get access a new dedicated tool that breaks down all the web vitals, your best and worst performing pages, and the performance trend for your whole website.
in defiance of @j406.bsky.social, max love pineapple on pizza
Max is among us 🙇
1. Product engineers succeed when they ship quickly, and iterate.
2. Feature flags are an essential tool for doing so.
The catch? Flags are dangerous when misused.
So, don't make these feature flag mistakes...
I've only just been told about PostHog and am already a total sucker for their tone of voice.
Their Fantasy or Taylor Swift Data Protection Agreement generator is just divine https://posthog.com/dpa
We have another new product in open beta: LLM observability.
We currently capture data like latency, the cost of each generation, the model used, and there's more to come as the beta evolves.
Join the beta via our feature preview menu – see pinned post.
