DataCops vs PostHog
Replace PostHog with first-party analytics that captures the users it's blocking.
PostHog's product analytics depends on events it receives — and ad blockers remove those for 50–80% of technical B2B users. DataCops captures everything first-party from your own subdomain, scores every session for fraud, and routes verified conversions to your ad platforms. No PostHog domains in the browser.
Start FreeWhy first-party wins - feature by feature
DataCops doesn't just replace a tracker. It eliminates the three root causes of missing data - blocking, cookie limits, and consent gates - all from a single install.
One platform that captures, verifies, and activates - instead of patching three tools together.
PostHog autocapture is only useful when it actually fires.
PostHog's autocapture is powerful for product analytics but runs from a JavaScript SDK that shares the same ad-blocker vulnerability as every client-side tool. And PostHog has no native path from product events to ad-platform CAPI.
What PostHog can't see - and can't send
PostHog's SDK is loaded from app.posthog.com or your PostHog Cloud endpoint - a known analytics domain. Technical users (the exact cohort PostHog product analytics is most valuable for) run uBlock Origin, Brave, or Firefox Enhanced Protection at rates of 50–80%. They never appear in PostHog at all.
PostHog doesn't route conversion events to Google Ads, Meta Ads, or any paid-social platform. Teams using PostHog for product analytics still need a separate CAPI solution (Meta Conversions API, Google Enhanced Conversions, sGTM) - and that solution typically relies on the same broken client-side data.
PostHog session replay is silent on users who block tracking. The sessions product managers most want to understand - abandoned funnels, confused flows - often belong to users who never show up because their blocker prevented PostHog from loading.
Replace PostHog with complete first-party analytics
DataCops captures events via a first-party script on your own subdomain — no app.posthog.com or third-party analytics domain ever loads in the browser. Developers, designers, and power users who run uBlock Origin or Brave start appearing in your analytics for the first time.
User identity is resolved server-side from email, device fingerprint, and session data — so profiles stay coherent across devices and Safari cookie resets. No more false churn from ITP-fragmented iOS sessions.
DataCops routes verified conversion events server-side to Meta CAPI, Google CAPI, and HubSpot — the ad-platform layer PostHog doesn't have. One install replaces PostHog, your pixel stack, and your CMP.

FAQ
Because your current tool is measuring a fraction of your actual traffic. Ad blockers, ITP, and consent dropoff silently remove 30–60% of sessions before they ever reach GA4, Mixpanel, Amplitude, or PostHog. DataCops runs on your own subdomain, captures the full picture, and feeds clean events to your existing stack - so you don't replace your BI layer, you just give it real data.
