Autessa Analytics vs Google Analytics 4
Autessa Analytics as a Google Analytics 4 alternative
Autessa Analytics is a website and product analytics dashboard built on PostHog. Google Analytics 4 is Google’s web and app analytics platform, with reports, explorations, links to its advertising products and a read-only MCP server. Autessa Analytics gives you ready-made reports instead: named journeys across site and app, usage by customer company, replays, and leads and booked demos for each campaign post.

Where Autessa wins
Why teams pick Autessa Analytics over Google Analytics 4
See people, not only counts
Open anyone who gave you an email and read every visit to your site and app, with the replay a click away.
Reports you do not have to build
Website, product, people and campaign reports are ready when you connect, so nobody needs to assemble an exploration first.
Plan the campaign and score it
Posts get tracked links, and the campaign page shows the visitors, leads and booked demos each post brought in, with no separate URL builder.
Change the report itself
Custom dimensions add data to Google’s reports. Autobot changes the app: a new funnel step, a report for your board or a field per region, code and all.
An agent that can also act
Google’s MCP reads reports. The Autessa MCP reads your numbers and can act on them, such as adding a post to a campaign, across your other Autessa apps too.
