What’s in a posthog product analytics dashboard?

What’s in a posthog product analytics dashboard?

A product analytics dashboard modeled on PostHog events, persons, cohorts, and feature flags. Each metric — DAU, MAU, DAU/MAU ratio, activation rate, feature adoption — is derived from PostHog's event stream, governed in the warehouse so there is one definition of engagement across your PostHog project.

PostHog gives you insights, trends, and funnels, but the engagement picture fragments across saved insights, cohorts, and feature-flag reports. When DAU, MAU, and activation come from one governed model on the same PostHog event data, you catch the adoption drop in one view instead of clicking between dashboards.

Who it’s forProduct leaders, PMs, and growth teams who use PostHog and own the engagement and adoption numbers.

CadenceRefreshed daily; reviewed in the weekly product review and before roadmap planning.

Here's your posthog product analytics dashboard, on your PostHog and Amplitude data.
Here’s what’s in it

The top row leads with the 4 numbers that matter most: DAU, MAU, DAU/MAU ratio, Activation rate. Each shows a delta versus the prior period so you can see direction at a glance. Below that, 2 trend charts (MAU over time, Feature adoption trend) show how the headline numbers have moved over time. A breakdown (DAU by segment) splits the metric by dimension so you can see what's driving the total. A detail table (Engagement summary) rounds it out with the secondary metrics and their deltas. Every number is computed from the exact formulas shown in the metric table below. Composites are derived from their components, not pasted in, so the KPI tiles, breakdowns, and totals all reconcile to each other.

§ Why the numbers tie out

Every metric traces back to your systems

This is the part a BI tool can’t fake. Each metric is defined once, in your warehouse, from a specific object in a specific source. Change the definition in one place and every tile, report, and answer moves with it. So the number on the screen is the number in the source.

§ Then do something about it

Have our agent watch for you

A posthog product analytics dashboard tells you what happened, and Fi tells you why. The last step is not having to remember to check. Point Definite at the one number you can’t afford to miss, and it watches that number for you off the same definitions as your dashboard. When it moves, you hear about it before the next review instead of during it. One metric, one action, always reversible.

§ FAQ

Common questions

Usually because PostHog defines an active user by identified persons with events, while downstream BI queries may add session-length or property-based thresholds. The reconciliation map above shows which PostHog event and person objects each metric comes from, so there is one governed definition of DAU and MAU in the warehouse.
PostHog for events, persons, cohorts, and feature flags. Amplitude is included as a complement for teams that run both tools. Definite syncs your PostHog project data and models the engagement metrics.
It is a live ECharts dashboard running on a deterministic synthetic dataset, labeled illustrative. DAU/MAU ratio is computed from DAU and MAU by the formula in the metric table. Connect PostHog and Fi builds the same view from your event data.
Type a prompt like the one above. Fi connects your PostHog project, models the engagement metrics from events and persons, and you refine by asking follow-ups. The first version ties engagement to the event data without a SQL query.
Yes. PostHog feature flags sync as dimensions, so you can break DAU, MAU, and activation rate by any flag variant. Ask Fi to add a feature-flag dimension to any tile to see engagement by rollout group.
