However, there's no way to share a direct link to a survey for users to access outside the app. - -This feature introduces support for Full Screen and External Surveys, allowing you to generate a shareable URL that users can open in any browser — ideal for collecting feedback via email, social media, or other external channels without requiring them to be inside the product. - LLM ANALYTICS IS OUT OF BETA August 27, 2025 · AI Observability Team -Emerging from beta like a hedgehog from hibernation, LLM analytics is now ready for primetime. In fact, teams like Lovable are already using it at scale debug their traces, monitor performance, track costs, and even test different models against each other. - -Testing models against each other is especially cool because it uses the playground feature, which was based on a suggestion from Lovable's engineers. The playground enables you to recreate or manufacture new traces with full visibility of the models inner machinations. - -Now it's out of beta, LLM analytics has everything you'd expect from a PostHog product launch, including a massive 100,000 free events every month and usage-based pricing that doesn't rely on per-seat penalties. - -In short, LLM analytics is (to quote Lovable's engineers) "super cool". - MAX AI NOW UNDERSTANDS SURVEYS, FLAGS, AND VARIANTS August 26, 2025 · Surveys Team -Previously, Max AI couldn't create surveys behind feature flags or variants. But now he can. - -It's also worth mentioning that surveys have had a massive price improvement recently and we've massively boosted the size of the free tier. If you've never created a survey for your users before, now you can do it for free and you can do it behind flags. - NEW SECURITY EMAILS ENABLED August 26, 2025 · Platform Features Team -Security is occasionally quite dull, but that doesn't stop us from taking it seriously - even if it's a little bothersome. - -We now send email notifications when your account is accessed from a new or unfamiliar device. It's a tiny bit noisy, but it helps you keep an eye on where your account is being accessed and stop unauthorized logins. - -Hey, if it helps protect just one user then we think it'll be worth it. - EMOJIS NOW SUPPORTED IN SESSION REPLAY COMMENTS August 26, 2025 · Replay Team -🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 - ACTIVITY LOGS LAUNCHED FOR ANNOTATIONS August 26, 2025 · Platform UX Team -We've added a new activity log view to the annotations tool, so you can see a full history of changes to annotations and get relevant context on your insights. - -Annotations are a free, oft-overlooked aspect of good data hygiene which enable you to add comments to your data for future use. Had a big marketing launch or an incident? Add an annotation to the data and you'll always have the context on hand when you look back at the data. - -If you've been looking for a sign that you should update your annotations, consider this it. - YOU CAN NOW SEARCH REPLAYS BY COMMENT TEXT August 26, 2025 · Replay Team -"review this later" "should get james to look at this" "discuss this in sprint planning" - -If you find yourself often leaving comments like this on session replay, then you'll be happy to know that you can now find session replays by searching based on attached comments. - -It's also helpful if your comments are a bit more actionable. - DASHBOARD QUERY PARAMETERS August 13, 2025 · Product Analytics Team -We’ve moved the dashboard filter, date range, and breakdown into query parameters, making it possible to set them dynamically through links. - -This means you can now share or bookmark dashboards with specific filters applied. Just edit the filters on your dashboard and copy the URL to get the correct format. - -Got feedback or questions? Let us know! - STRIPE WEBHOOK TEMPLATE NOW AVAILABLE August 8, 2025 · Workflows Team -We've added a Stripe webhook source template for PostHog's data pipelines, enabling you to easily ingest and validate events from Stripe. - -This is useful because, if you use Stripe, you probably want data from it into PostHog. Obviously. With it, you can do things like correlate revenue with other product metrics, for example. - GOOGLE TAG MANAGER DESTINATION NOW AVAILABLE August 8, 2025 · Workflows Team -We now have a new CDP destination for Google Tag Manager in an experimental state for you to try. This helps you load Google Tag Manager within your website and integrate more closely with it. - -Because it's in an experimental state we're still working on some features and documentation for this destination, so please let us know if you see any bugs while we get it polished up! - JULY 2025 MAX AI CAN NOW CREATE SURVEYS FOR YOU @@ -7278,5 +7369,7 @@ Jun Jul -Aug \ No newline at end of file +Aug + +Sep \ No newline at end of file
