Ask HN: How do you manage a startups entire monitoring and marketing layer?
It lead me to think more about other software like posthog, software for AB tests, marketing, setting pricing, testimonials and perhaps payments API. Now for payments, auth and other things there are a range of starterkits, some specific, like SaaS starterkits. But not the analytics layer, really. Yet I have found for startups showing flames of life, that this layer is vital.
Setting these up for each sideproject/startup can be a real drag. The practical usage of these tools often seems superficial - lets' say 80% of projects never making significant amounts of requests or using RAM - the sort of things you could pool together?
Is there any company aiming to pull together services from all the above and host an 'all-in-one' solution? They could form partnerships with the likes of Highlight.io and other players to keep the usage amicable and updated without issue. It'd be much nicer to just deal with one company and API for the stack, similar to the days of Google Analytics in the 10s.
