24 alternatives to Auto-document your analytics setup (npx package)
Hey HN, sharing an npx package that I’ve been working on to help teams automatically document their analytics setups. It crawls any JS/TS codebase and generates a YAML schema that catalogs all the events, properties, and triggers. Currently supporting GA, Amplitude, Mixpanel, Amplitude, Rudderstack, mParticle, PostHog, Pendo, Heap, Snowplow. Let me know if there’s any more I should add to the list! Came out of a personal pain where I was struggling to keep tabs on all the analytics events we had implemented. The “tracking plan” spreadsheets just weren’t cutting it, and I wanted…

Hi HN, My name is JR and I had a need for a simple analytics solution that allowed me to store (timestamp, json) logs and run SQL over them. It was hard to find the right solution. Solutions like Mixpanel and Amplitude optimized for particular report types. Whereas solutions like Snowflake, BigQuery, etc. required a lot of setup. I built GraphJSON to fit in the middle. I strived for the ease of use of tools like Mixpanel and Amplitude, but wanted to ensure affordances were built to support use cases that big data warehouses enable. Under the hood, GraphJSON is powered by ClickHouse. This…

If you've built any web-based app in the last 15 years, you probably used something like Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, etc. to monitor and trace your app, right? Why should it be different when the app you're building happens to be using LLMs? So today we're open-sourcing OpenLLMetry-JS. It's an open protocol and SDK, based on OpenTelemetry, that provides traces and metrics for LLM JS/TS applications and can be connected to any of the 15+ tools that already support OpenTelemetry. Here's the repo: https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry-js A few months ago we launched…

Hey everyone! I'm excited to share my newest side project, Atlas. Atlas is an open-source product analytics tool that sits on top of the data warehouse. You can do things like funnels, flows, and retention analysis that typically you need to pipe data to Mixpanel or Amplitude for. Under the hood, it uses dbt to run queries and is built using TypeScript, React, and NextJS. Check out the live demo at https://atlas-demo.onrender.com/ and let me know if you have questions or thoughts. Happy Atlasing!

Hi HN, I’m Sarafina, an engineer at Gamma, and I’m here to share something we’ve been building the Gamma API, now in public beta. We originally built Gamma as a way to turn rough content into shareable decks and documents, a kind of design layer for non-designers. Over time, we got more automation requests to enable quickly creating new sales pitches, lesson plans, or meeting summaries. The Generate API takes in raw input like text, meeting notes, or CRM data and returns polished content. You can generate: Slide decks Docs Social carousels (LinkedIn-style) All fully designed, brandable, and…
