Taplytics is a broad A/B testing platform for marketing teams. While DevCycle is a feature flagging tool built for developers. Taplytics actually has feature flagging, but DevCycle is much more focused and plans to compete directly with incumbents like LaunchDarkly by building a better developer experience (more on how later). But with Taplytics they built so many features and every customer was using them in a different way that it became hard for such a small team to maintain. Meanwhile, feature flagging is a much narrower problem where most customers will have similar use cases. In addition, Taplytics required lots of face-to-face time selling to executives, while DevCycle is more of a bottoms-up, self-serve sales process. Finally, we didn't cover it in the interview but feature flagging is a huge market. LaunchDarkly was valued at $3billion in 2021.

I had a custom rule added to Little Snitch that blocked the following domains: launchdarkly.com, clientstream.launchdarkly.com, mobile.launchdarkly.com

There are however Saas to implement directly a feature management system. Several solutions exist like LaunchDarkly, Flagsmith or Unleash.io. Using a SaaS (Software as a Service) feature flagging solution offers the advantage of a faster and more straightforward implementation process. These services are readily available and can be quickly integrated into your project.

Currently, there are numerous feature flag systems available. Options include our own company's open-source system, "Bucketeer", and the renowned SaaS "LaunchDarkly" among others. When comparing these, the following considerations might come into play:

A variety of tools can cover some of these use cases. PLG tools like Segment and journy.io can track activity. Maybe you use a feature flag service such as LaunchDarkly. Stripe or Chargebee might manage some of the billing-related aspects. Meanwhile, problems related to authentication might be visible in your Auth0 account. However, it’s unlikely that you’re using all these platforms. Even if you are, you probably can’t cover some use cases.

2. SmartLook

I've been looking for similar tools for Unity and mobile games. I found a few options, but nothing that seems to be dedicated to Unity and mobile games. The closest one I found was https://www.smartlook.com/, but it seems like Unity and gaming aren't a core target market for it.

smartlook.com — free packages for web and mobile apps (1500 sessions/month), 3 heatmaps, 1 funnel, 1-month data history

Last but not least. I would recommend you to use a user recording tool like smartlook. It allows seeing how people are interacting with your signup form. It personally helped me a lot to improve QApop signup flow.

for session recording & heatmapping www.smartlook.com

This is actually pretty average. Nothing more than other social networks. How many apps/websites do you think are using stuff like https://www.smartlook.com/ or https://www.hotjar.com/ :)

although I get that they gave access to recording the screen, literally every app can integrate https://www.smartlook.com/ and record user sessions while using the app .

We use Sentry for exception handling, and https://www.smartlook.com/ for the session recording.

Awesome! I'll reach out to you shortly. As for user testing actual sites, have you checked SmartLook?
