Heap Analytics AI
Retroactive product analytics platform that automatically captures all user interactions.
About Heap Analytics AI
Heap is a product analytics platform built around the concept of retroactive analytics—its autocapture technology records every user interaction from the moment it is installed, meaning teams can define events and funnels after the fact without needing to re-instrument. This eliminates the common problem of losing historical data when new questions arise. Heap's Illuminate AI feature automatically analyzes the entire captured event stream to surface the user paths, behaviors, and friction points that most impact conversion and retention—without analysts needing to know what to look for in advance. The platform's Session Replay integration links quantitative analytics with qualitative session recordings, enabling teams to move from metric to explanation in a single workflow. Heap was acquired by Contentsquare in 2023, combining behavioral analytics with digital experience intelligence. Companies including Logitech, Twilio, and Salesforce use Heap to build complete behavioral understanding of their digital products.
