Sankofa Analytics
What it is
Sankofa Analytics tracks events and provides cohorts, funnels, flows, retention analysis, session replay, and heatmaps. Events reach the dashboard within seconds, with stated p95 freshness under 30 seconds. Users can open a session replay from a funnel drop-off, and compare retention curves by cohort, version, or custom segment. Its analytics engine uses ClickHouse-backed event streams and is built on a self-hostable ClickHouse spine. Sankofa lists SDKs for Web, Flutter, React Native, iOS, Android, Java, Go, Node, Python, and CLI, plus a REST API for ingestion, decisions, exposures, and management. Its products share an event stream, identity model, and authentication layer, with connections among Analytics, Catch, Switch, Deploy, Plan, and Pulse. Plans include a free tier and paid options starting at $9 a month, with event volume as the primary pricing metric. The free tier includes 50k events/month, 250 session replays/month, 14-day event retention, one project, and three seats. Sankofa states it uses TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256-GCM at rest.
