Why connect PostHog to ChatGPT?

Most PostHog numbers reach ChatGPT as a screenshot or a CSV. Pick Lemonado with @ and ChatGPT queries the events, funnels and web analytics itself, then adds what each source cost in ads.

  • All your PostHog data

    Events, pageviews and their properties, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Persons with UTM and referrer properties, synced from PostHog automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "What does an activated user cost?" use PostHog and Mixpanel, GA4 at once.
