Alternative
A Firebase Analytics alternative for product agents
Firebase Analytics is a natural default for many mobile teams. AnalyticsCLI is a better fit when the team wants explicit product events, release/debug separation, and Growth Engineer recommendations that can become GitHub work.

Questions founders ask
Can AnalyticsCLI coexist with Firebase?
Yes. A team can keep Firebase for platform needs and use AnalyticsCLI for explicit product events and Growth Engineer workflows.
What does the Growth Engineer need from mobile analytics?
It needs clean events that describe user progress through onboarding, value moments, paywalls, purchases, and retention loops.
Is this built for automatic screen recording?
No. AnalyticsCLI does not record screens or automatically capture hidden behavior.
