Events are queryable a median of 1.4 seconds after they arrive
Events, funnels and retention from one stream
Most analytics products aggregate on the way in, which is why every interesting question is one you cannot ask any more. This one stores the event with every property you attached, and answers new questions about last quarter without you having re-instrumented anything.
The model
Funnels, retention and segmentation are not three products here. They are three shapes of question asked of the same rows.
Send the plan, the feature flag, the deploy sha, the workspace id. Nothing is dropped for being high-cardinality and nothing costs more for being interesting. The question you will want in March is answerable in March because the data was never thrown away in January.
Pick four events in an order. No funnel to declare in advance and no re-instrumentation to add a step.
Anyone who has ever sent a property can be a cohort. Signed up in a week, on a plan, in a country.
At the ceiling ingest samples rather than stops, and you are warned at 70, 90 and 100 percent. Analytics that go dark on a big month go dark in the month that matters.
Asking
The builder is for the question you ask weekly. When you need something it cannot express, the escape hatch is real SQL against the same rows, not a support ticket asking us to build a report.
Against the two obvious alternatives
| Page-view analytics | A warehouse plus BI | Piskes Analytics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| New question about last quarter | Not answerable | Answerable | Answerable |
| Time to first funnel | Not supported | A data engineer and a fortnight | An afternoon |
| High-cardinality property | Dropped | Fine, and billed | Fine, not billed |
| Raw SQL | No | Yes | Yes, on every plan |
| Who maintains it | Nobody | Someone, permanently | Nobody |
Pricing
Per-seat pricing on analytics is how a company ends up with three people who can see the numbers.
For one product finding out whether the numbers are worth having.
$0
Most products
For a product with real traffic.
$29 per month
For several products under one roof.
$99 per month
Prices in USD, billed monthly. Extra events are charged per million, and the ceiling is yours to set before that happens.
Questions
If you send a plain event with properties today, changing the endpoint is most of it. We will read your current event schema with you before you commit to anything.
Events are workspace data with a documented erasure path, and you choose whether to send anything identifying at all. Plenty of teams run it entirely on pseudonymous ids.
Ingest samples at a declining rate rather than stopping. You keep the shape of your traffic in the month you most want to see it.
Yes, as an export on Business or over the query API on any plan. They are your events.
That is the demo and it is the whole product in miniature — the event you sent, with the properties you attached, answerable by a question you had not thought of when you sent it.
