How we track customer costs in Mixpanel (mixpanel.com)

Nice take on granular cost accounting. Interesting that its per customer attribution, as opposed to per component. Need the latter to talk about efficiency and scaling. Would like to hear more about total avg cost (which they have) vs marginal cost (which the business usually wants).


Enjoyed this, thank you.

Is this something that the new CEO asked for in trying to improve operations?


love mixpanel, keep up the great work


Love? They're a security nightmare. I wonder if they refunded the costs for slurping user passwords or charged clients to hack them. http://web04.theregister.co.uk/2018/02/07/mixpanel_slurped_p...


Due to my security settings, cant view the page.


Mixpanel often seen on left-bottom in my browser , Thanks to the slow internet/CDN.


Use uBlock and the Easyprivacy List. It blocks "/mixpanel.".
