Feder and Fullstory: keep Fullstory, check the numbers you run on.
No, Feder is not a replacement for Fullstory. Keep Fullstory. Feder does a different job beside it: it reads what your connected apps recorded and compares each number with your own history, so you know when one cannot be trusted.
Why would I need this?
Because the question is not what the number is. It is whether you can trust it.
Is Feder an alternative to Fullstory?
No. Fullstory captures real user behavior to help companies understand and improve how humans and AI agents interact with their digital experiences. Feder does a different job: it watches the numbers your tools record and says when one cannot be trusted. Nothing here asks you to switch.
Do I need Feder if I have Fullstory?
They do different jobs, so one does not stand in for the other. Keep Fullstory for the job it does. Feder's job is to say when a number your tools record has gone quiet or moved outside your own history.

What should I ask about my Fullstory setup?

- If this number stopped counting tomorrow, who would notice, and when?
- What does a normal week look like for this number, in my own history?
