Reviewer scorecard
“10-100x faster than pandas with better syntax. Lazy evaluation and parallel execution are game-changing for large datasets.”
“Self-hostable, open source, and genuinely all-in-one. Replaces Amplitude + LaunchDarkly + Hotjar at a fraction of the cost.”
“The performance difference over pandas is not benchmarketing — it's real and measurable on any non-trivial dataset.”
“The free tier is absurdly generous. Open source means you can audit exactly what data goes where.”
“Polars is replacing pandas for performance-sensitive work. Rust-powered data tools are the future.”
“PostHog is the open-source Amplitude. The all-in-one approach reduces tool sprawl and keeps data unified.”
