COMPARISON
Anacoic vs Segment
Why fast-moving teams choose edge-native tracking over traditional CDPs. 80% lower cost, 30x faster, and AI-native by default.
30x Faster
Edge-native processing at <10ms vs Segment's 100-300ms cloud latency. Attribution before users bounce.
80% Cheaper
$0.001/event vs $0.05+. No MTU pricing that penalizes growth. Predictable costs that scale.
AI-Native
Built-in MCP gateway for AI agents. Segment has no native agent support — Anacoic is ready for 2026.
