Hey HN,

I'm Derric, CEO of https://www.moesif.com. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, we released our Conversion Funnel feature (https://www.moesif.com/docs/user-analytics/conversion-funnel-analysis/) for API platforms. Conversion funnels are an easy way to measure developer adoption metrics like Time to First Hello World (TTFHW) and Time to First Working App (TTFWA).

We built Moesif to help API-first companies understand how customers use their APIs to plan a better product strategy that drives actual growth.

If you have any questions or any feature ideas especially if you're an API first company, please share!

Ask HN: Email alerts enabled or disabled (i.e. require opt-in) for new users?

Background: We run an API monitoring and analytics tool called Moesif that can send email/Slack notifications if we see something wrong with your API such as high error rates.

Currently, we do not send alerts to the customer unless they manually go to our "Alert Settings" panel and enable email alerts. We could change it so that new users would automatically receive email alerts if something is wrong as soon as they integrate our SDK. Curious what developers on HN thinks about this for a good on boarding experience. Alerts was one of our most requested features so we just released them a few weeks ago, but we don't want to clutter people's email boxes if they don't want alerts.
