Mixpanel launched in 2009 after completing the Y Combinator incubation program with the intention of providing a more intuitive, more sophisticated alternative to Google Analytics for the web. The company received seed funding in 2011 and raised a $10.3MM Series A round in 2012, having expanded into mobile in 2010. Mixpanel is based in San Francisco.
The two functional areas upon which Mixpanel places the most emphasis are real-time metrics and robust segmentation for the purposes of cohort analysis. The product is free up to 25,000 monthly data points tracked, scaling in price up to $2,000 per month for 20MM data points and with a customized pricing structure for 50MM data points and more.
