# GrainQL (grainql.com)

> GrainQL is a privacy-first product-analytics platform with a built-in AI analyst
> (Kai) that investigates why your metrics move. It combines event analytics,
> session replay, heatmaps, funnels, and visual point-and-click event tracking, and
> Kai's "Deep Investigation" automatically root-causes revenue leaks and conversion
> drops. Positioning: "Find where your site is losing money."

## What GrainQL is
- Category: Product analytics + session replay + AI investigator, for web and mobile.
- Core differentiator: Kai, an AI analyst that proactively surfaces and explains what is
  broken, not a chat box over dashboards. Deep Investigation is a multi-phase automated
  audit that finds the root cause of a metric drop.
- Capabilities: event analytics, session replay, heatmaps, funnels and Tracks,
  visual point-and-click event tracking, remote config, and a mobile SDK (iOS + Android).
- Privacy: cookieless, EU-hosted (Helsinki primary / Frankfurt backup), GDPR + CCPA, no
  fingerprinting, no third-party cookies.
