PostHog can be deployed to the cloud, or self-hosted on existing infrastructure, removing the need to send data externally. PostHog was created as an open source project during Y Combinator's W20 cohort and had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 - with a product that was just 4 weeks old. Since then, more than 40,000 companies have installed the platform, we're doing $MMs in revenue, and have a community of 120K developers - 97% driven by word of mouth. Despite the tech market, we're default alive and doing better than ever! We've been averaging ~10% monthly revenue growth, we are [default alive](http://www.paulgraham.com/aord.html), and we didn't raised a huge / now-overpriced round in 2021. While others are focused on layoffs and struggling to grow into huge valuations, we're focusing on an awesome product for end users, hiring (a handful of) exceptional team members and seeing fantastic increases in revenue as a result.

    Varos is a data sharing platform helping companies compare their KPIs to their peers. Within 1.5 years, we have over 4,000 companies as part of our co-op and growing rapidly. Varos is pioneering a new category of data analytics that’s challenging traditional taboos around cross-company collaboration. Varos’ platform helps its users understand their own performance vs. direct competitors by unlocking data that is currently stored in different silos. In fact, a growing base of thousands of users are already automatically feeding marketing data to Varos’ platform, and in return seeing how they stack up against others in their space and stage. However, Varos is not planning to stop there, and is already planning its expansion across additional operative departments, such as finance, product, and sales. Companies today are flying blind because they only rely on their own historical data and don’t know how their metrics compare to their competitors. Varos increases revenue for our users by accurately showing them how their metrics compare against similar companies so they can decide which KPIs to double down on and which to spend time fixing.

  • GrowthBook
    GrowthBook (w2022)Active • 14 employees • Palo Alto, CA, USA
    GrowthBook is an open source platform to help companies make data-driven product decisions with feature flags and A/B tests. Existing SaaS solutions like LaunchDarkly require a company to send all of their data to them. This results in high costs, data compliance issues, and vendor lock-in. As a result, many companies end up building their own platforms in-house, which can take thousands of hours of work and lots of headaches. To solve this, GrowthBook uses a company's existing data infrastructure and business metrics. We believe feature flags and experimentation are the right way to build products at scale and that they will become a standard part of the development process. GrowthBook is well positioned to be a leader in this growing market.
