What to do about it

How PostHog can change how AI describes it

PostHog already appears in AI answers, so the work is about prominence and accuracy — moving from "mentioned" to "recommended," and making sure the framing is the one PostHog would choose. Three levers do most of the work:

  1. 01Be extractable. Publish answers to real Analytics buyer questions in clean, self-contained passages a retrieval layer can lift without guessing. See how to optimize for AI citation.
  2. 02Earn the right citations. AI assistants quote sources they trust. Getting onto the third-party roundups and reviews they already cite moves the needle more than on-site changes alone.
  3. 03Measure, don't guess. Track PostHog's share of paragraph across assistants over time so you know which changes actually shifted the answer. See how to measure AI visibility.

How we measured this

The methodology behind this report

This report is built from AI search answers that mention or cite posthog.com, pulled from a third-party index of AI answers. We count them by surface, record which sources each answer cites, and score how positively PostHog is framed. Surfaces checked for this report: Google AI Overview (50 answers). Not checked: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. Until all four assistants are collected, read this page as a view of the surfaces named above, not of AI search as a whole.

A "mention" means the answer named PostHog or cited a page on posthog.com; sentiment is a keyword score of how positively the answer reads. The questions are the search queries that index holds for posthog.com, not a prompt panel Lynceus wrote, so some are only loosely related to Analytics. Quotes appear only when at least 3 whole sentences from the data are about PostHog. This snapshot was last refreshed September 25, 2026.

Limitations

  • Surfaces checked for this report: Google AI Overview (50 answers). Not checked: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity.
  • Sentiment is a keyword count over the answer text, not a human rating.
  • This is one snapshot, not a trend. AI answers change between runs.
