Analytics you can talk to – no queries required

Mixpanel offers powerful funnels, retention charts, and cohort analysis. It's built for product teams who think in events and properties. Grandma Knows takes a different approach: just ask a question in plain English, and she'll give you a straight answer. No query builder, no SQL, no jargon.

Track events without involving your developers

Setting up event tracking in Mixpanel typically requires developer involvement – instrumenting code, defining properties, and maintaining a tracking plan. With Grandma's visual event editor, you can set up conversion tracking and scroll-depth monitoring yourself, without writing a single line of code.

Simple pricing, no surprises

Mixpanel's pricing can get complex as you scale – MTU limits, data history, and feature tiers. Grandma keeps it simple: transparent pricing with a generous free plan, no annual contracts, and no hidden costs. Cancel whenever you like – she won't hold it against you.
