PostHog
:hedgehog: PostHog is the leading platform for building self-driving products. Our developer tools – AI observability, analytics, session replay, flags, experiments, error tracking, logs, and more – capture all the context agents need to diagnose problems, uncover opportunities, and ship fixes. Steer it all from Slack, web, desktop, or the MCP.
Project mention: Expo SDK 58 beta opens with iOS 27 support and a faster build pipeline | dev.to | 2026-09-29Run eas integrations:posthog:connect and EAS CLI creates or links your PostHog project, installs the SDK and config plugin, and writes environment variables to your project and EAS. Every event PostHog captures now carries eas/update_id, eas/build_id, eas/channel, and eas/runtime_version, linked back to expo.dev. This is an EAS CLI feature, so it works on any SDK version. See the PostHog changelog and the using PostHog guide.

Redash
Make Your Company Data Driven. Connect to any data source, easily visualize, dashboard and share your data.
Project mention: I ran my code analyzer on 9 codebases it had never seen. It found 3 real bugs, and embarrassed me first. | dev.to | 2026-07-16redash ships a client method calling GET /api/dashboards/recent with no backend route serves it. (Latent: the method has no callers today, which the issue says plainly. #7769)

rotki
A portfolio tracking, analytics, accounting and management application that protects your privacy
Closest comparable: both are self-hosted portfolio trackers covering exchanges, chains and traditional accounts. rotki is Python/Vue and older and more established; Scani is TypeScript end to end and adds bank and brokerage sync (Interactive Brokers, Wise, Airwallex). Disclosure: I work on Scani.

The incumbents in the semantic layer space are MetricFlow (dbt’s semantic layer engine) and Cube.js; worth mentioning is Lightdash, which used to be more of a dashboard solution but is now increasingly beefing up its semantic layer side. A project to watch is Apache Ossie (formerly Open Semantic Interchange), which aims to become an open source semantic layer standard. At the moment it only has a limited spec for specifying datasets and no reference semantics for querying, so definitely worth following but not a full solution at the moment. Finally, we will cover SLayer, a recent entrant aiming to be used by agents as well as humans.
