About Amplitude

Amplitude is a product analytics platform used by many large consumer and B2B software companies. Its core is event-based analysis: funnels, retention, user paths, behavioural cohorts and impact analysis on feature launches. Around that it has added session replay, an experimentation product with feature flags, in-app guides and surveys, and AI features that answer questions in plain language. It suits product teams that want deep behavioural analysis and are willing to invest in tracking plans and data governance; Amplitude provides taxonomy tooling to help keep event data tidy. Pricing starts with a free plan that includes a monthly event allowance and unlimited seats, then a Plus plan that scales with event volume, and custom Growth and Enterprise contracts for larger companies. It runs in the browser, with SDKs for web, iOS, Android, server languages and warehouse connections. Teams often find it more than they need early on, and enterprise contracts can be expensive.

Best for: Product teams that want deep behavioural analytics and experiments on one platform.
