Heap

Autocapture product analytics

4.4
GDPR Compliant

Heap automatically captures all user interactions on your website or app, letting you analyze any event without manual tracking.

Heap pioneered the concept of "autocapture" - automatically recording every click, swipe, pageview, and form submission without any manual instrumentation. This means you never lose data because you forgot to track something. The platform allows you to retroactively define events and analyze historical data, making it incredibly flexible for fast-moving product teams. You can answer questions about user behavior instantly, without waiting for developers to implement tracking. Heap is now part of Contentsquare (same company as Hotjar), combining quantitative autocapture with qualitative behavioral insights.
