Attrifast vs PostHog
You installed PostHog.
It still can't tell you what drives revenue.
PostHog is a powerful engineering tool — session replays, feature flags, A/B tests, product funnels. But founders install it expecting to answer a different question: which marketing channels bring paying customers? That question requires Attrifast, not PostHog.
Free tier included. No engineering setup required.
Why founders confuse product analytics with marketing attribution
Both tools track users on your website — but they answer completely different questions. Using PostHog for revenue attribution is like using a scalpel to hammer a nail.
- "Which features do power users click most?"
- "Where do users drop off in our onboarding?"
- "Did the new UI reduce time-to-activate?"
- "What did this specific user do in their session?"
- "Which channel drove $8,400 in Stripe revenue?"
- "Is Twitter or Google more profitable per visitor?"
- "Which blog post generates the most sales?"
- "Should I double ad spend on Instagram?"
These are not the same tool. PostHog requires engineers to instrument events, plan funnels, and build dashboards before it answers anything. Attrifast answers the revenue question in 2 minutes.
SDK weight and Core Web Vitals impact
Every kilobyte of JavaScript your visitors download has a cost. PostHog's SDK ships 60–150 KB of JavaScript. Attrifast ships 4 KB. The difference shows up in your Google rankings and conversion rate.
Estimates based on average mobile 3G throughput (~1.5 Mbps). PostHog bundle sizes sourced from bundlephobia.com and PostHog docs. Core Web Vitals impact depends on CDN and network conditions.
Feature comparison
PostHog excels at product analytics for engineering teams. Attrifast excels at marketing revenue attribution for founders. Both tools can coexist.
Revenue answers, not engineering backlogs
No event planning required
PostHog is only useful after your engineers define events, add SDK calls, deploy to production, and build dashboards. Attrifast reads revenue data automatically — no engineering sprint needed.
4 KB script vs 150 KB SDK
PostHog's SDK can exceed 150 KB with session replay and feature flags enabled. Attrifast is a 4 KB async snippet that loads after your page — invisible to your Core Web Vitals score.
Marketing attribution in 2 minutes
Connect Stripe, paste one script tag, and your revenue is attributed to channels, pages, and campaigns automatically. No cookies, no consent banner, GDPR-compliant by default.
Use both — they solve different problems
PostHog and Attrifast are not competing for the same job. Most growing SaaS products use both: PostHog to improve the product, Attrifast to grow the right acquisition channels.
