About Mixpanel
Mixpanel is the leading product analytics platform, built for SaaS and mobile apps rather than websites. It tracks user-level events — sign up, upgrade, invite team member — and lets you build cohort analyses, retention charts, and funnel reports that Google Analytics simply can't match. Its free plan includes up to 20 million events per month, making it accessible even for early-stage startups. Product teams at Uber, Twitter, and Airbnb use Mixpanel to make data-driven decisions.
