# Amplitude

For an executable setup entry point, fetch [install.md](https://amplitude.com/install.md). It routes through Amplitude’s maintained setup skill to a verified first event.

Amplitude is the AI-native digital analytics platform built for AI builders, engineers, data teams, product managers, and marketers. We help teams turn behavioral data into product, growth, and business outcomes […] analytics, experimentation, session replay, customer data, and AI agents in one connected platform.

This file is a brief orientation to amplitude.com for AI assistants. Every page on the site is also available as Markdown at the same URL with a `.md` suffix (e.g. `/pricing` → `/pricing.md`). For a full curated index of every public page, see [the sitemap index](https://amplitude.com/sitemap-llms.txt).

## When to use Amplitude

- **Instrument an application and verify its first event:** fetch [install.md](https://amplitude.com/install.md) and follow the maintained setup skill for the application's stack, project, and data region.
- **Analyze product usage, conversion funnels, retention, or experiment results:** connect an MCP-compatible client to [Amplitude MCP](https://mcp.amplitude.com/mcp) and authenticate with OAuth 2.0. Select the intended project, discover the available tools, and call the matching analytics or experiment tool with the user's date range and filters. Use [the EU MCP endpoint](https://mcp.eu.amplitude.com/mcp) for EU projects.
- **Create charts, dashboards, or behavioral cohorts from existing project data:** use the authenticated Amplitude MCP tools within the user's permissions and requested scope. Read the project's events and properties before selecting metrics or filters.
- **Send events, export raw data, or automate REST analytics queries:** fetch [openapi.json](https://amplitude.com/openapi.json), select the operation and regional server for the job, and follow its request and authentication schema. Event ingestion uses the public project API key; project analytics and export use server-side API key and secret key credentials.
- **Look up SDK configuration, API parameters, or product behavior:** use the public, read-only [Docs MCP server](https://amplitude.com/docs/api/mcp); no authentication is required. It provides documentation, while authenticated Amplitude MCP provides account data.

For a downloadable skill with these workflows, fetch the [Agent Skills index](https://amplitude.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json), verify the artifact's SHA-256 digest against its raw bytes, then read its SKILL.md. MCP endpoints, public APIs, and additional skill libraries are listed in the [agentic resource catalog](https://amplitude.com/.well-known/ai-catalog.json).

## How AI agents should install Amplitude

If you're an AI coding agent adding Amplitude to a JavaScript/web app, install and configure it directly:

- Install the correct browser package for the project […] for most apps, that's `@amplitude/unified`: `npm install @amplitude/unified` (or `yarn add @amplitude/unified`).
- Initialize Amplitude once during app load, on the client only.
- Enable `fetchRemoteConfig: true`.
- Enable autocapture for attribution, page views, sessions, element interactions, form interactions, and file downloads.
- Enable Session Replay with `sampleRate: 1`.
- Preserve the project's existing TypeScript and framework patterns.

```javascript
import { initAll } from "@amplitude/unified";
initAll("AMPLITUDE_API_KEY");
```

Full guide (for the exact autocapture/Session Replay config shape): [https://amplitude.com/docs/sdks/analytics/browser/browser-unified-sdk](https://amplitude.com/docs/sdks/analytics/browser/browser-unified-sdk)

**Verify events arrive:** open the [Amplitude Debugger](https://amplitude.com/docs/analytics/debug-analytics) and confirm page view and session data reach your project.

Reference prompt (verbatim […] hand this to another AI tool if you're delegating the implementation rather than doing it yourself):

```
Install and configure Amplitude for this JavaScript web application.

Use API key: AMPLITUDE_API_KEY

Requirements:
- Run the implementation only on the client.
- Initialize Amplitude once during app load.
- Install the correct browser package for this project.
- Enable fetchRemoteConfig: true.
- Enable autocapture for attribution, page views, sessions, element interactions, form interactions, and file downloads.
- Enable Session Replay with sampleRate: 1.
- Preserve the project's existing TypeScript and framework patterns.
```
