↗

A connector like Catchr

Catchr MCP puts PostHog and your other marketing sources in the same conversation, under one connection.

Claude reads campaigns, ad sets, ads, placements, and creative performance. Other sources connected to the same workspace can inform the same answer.

Read-only by design

Catchr gives Claude eight tools, and all eight of them read.

What Claude can read

Claude can list the platforms and accounts connected to your workspace, browse the available fields, and run reporting queries against them. That covers spend, delivery, conversions, and creative performance, down to the level you ask for.

What Claude cannot touch

Claude cannot create, pause, or edit a campaign, move a budget, publish an ad, or change an audience. There is no write permission to grant, so there is none to supervise.

Where the change still happens

In Ads Manager. Decide in the conversation what to change and why, then act with the access and the review your team already uses.

Twelve PostHog prompts for analyzing real account data.

Choose your role, open a workflow, then replace the bracketed variables before pasting the prompt into Claude. Every prompt asks for evidence, limits, and a concrete output.

Agency promptCopy prompt

Replace [variables] Facts ≠ hypotheses Action + follow-up metric

A simple client question should not trigger an hour of data prep

“Why did CPA rise?” sounds simple. The answer is usually buried across exports, formulas, filters, and tabs before the analysis can even start.

Pull another CSV

Choose the right account, date range, breakdowns, and fields. Then wait for the file and do it again when the question changes.

Rebuild the context

Rename columns, fix formats, join tabs, and check formulas before you can trust the comparison.

Summarize it by hand

Turn the numbers into a client-ready answer, then repeat the whole process for the inevitable follow-up.

Ask the account. Get to the explanation.

Catchr MCP gives Claude access to the marketing accounts you select, so each follow-up starts with the same marketing context instead of a new manual export.

The hard way

Prepare data before every question.

  • Export files from the marketing platform
  • Reformat and reconcile columns
  • Rebuild the analysis for each follow-up
The Catchr way

Connect once. Keep asking.

  • Select the right accounts and data
  • Ask in the language your team already uses
  • Investigate with follow-up questions

PostHog to Claude: FAQ

Clear answers for marketers comparing connectors, data sources, reporting workflows, and dashboard setup.

What PostHog data can Claude analyze through Catchr?

Claude can analyze the PostHog event records returned through Catchr. Available fields include a Records counter for each exported event, UTM Campaign, and time dimensions such as date, hour, week, month, quarter, and year, making it useful for campaign and event-volume reporting.

How can Claude break down PostHog events by campaign and time?

Claude can group returned PostHog events by UTM Campaign and available time dimensions, from hour and date to week, month, quarter, or year. Ask it to state the selected period, filters, and grouping before comparing event counts.

Can Claude compare PostHog event activity across periods?

Yes. Claude can use the Records counter and available date dimensions to compare returned event volumes across days, weeks, months, quarters, or years. Specify the periods, campaign filter, and comparison you need in your prompt.

Can Claude investigate unusual changes in PostHog event volumes?

Claude can identify spikes, drops, and other patterns in the returned PostHog events by comparing Records across UTM Campaign and time dimensions. It should present these as observations, not confirmed causes, and suggest what to validate next.

What prompts work well for PostHog analysis in Claude?

Use prompts with a clear period, campaign scope, grouping, and desired output. For example, ask Claude to compare weekly event counts by UTM Campaign, highlight unusual daily changes, summarize monthly activity, or prepare a concise campaign event report.

Can Claude analyze PostHog alongside other Catchr sources?

Yes, when the other sources are also connected through Catchr. Ask Claude to align dates, identifiers, and definitions before combining results; when a reliable join is not supported, request a side-by-side comparison instead.

Can Claude compare PostHog data from different instances?

Yes, provided each PostHog instance is connected and available through Catchr. The connector uses an explicit base URL to support US, EU, and self-hosted deployments, so Claude can compare their returned data while keeping each instance clearly identified.

What do I need to connect PostHog to Claude with Catchr?

You need a PostHog API key, the explicit base URL for your US, EU, or self-hosted instance, a Catchr workspace with PostHog connected, and Catchr MCP enabled in Claude. Available records depend on the connected instance and its permissions.

How recent is PostHog data in Claude, and how much history can it analyze?

Claude analyzes the PostHog records returned through Catchr and should not assume they are real time. Freshness and historical coverage depend on the requested period, available data, permissions, and PostHog API behavior, so ask Claude to state the latest returned date and flag missing intervals.

Can Claude change PostHog data or settings through Catchr?

No. Catchr MCP provides PostHog data to Claude for analysis and does not give Claude permission to edit events, change settings, or modify the PostHog instance. Use its findings to plan actions, then make reviewed changes in PostHog with the appropriate access.
