Public Founder & CEO

Amplitude is a product analytics platform that helps companies understand user behavior to build better digital products. Originally incubated at Y Combinator (W12) as a voice-to-text app called Sonalight, the founders pivoted to analytics after realizing the internal tools they built were more valuable than the app itself. The company pioneered the product intelligence category and went public via direct listing on NASDAQ in September 2021.
