About

Plausible Analytics is a lightweight, open-source web analytics tool designed as a privacy-respecting alternative to Google Analytics. It collects only essential site traffic metrics without cookies or personal data tracking, and processes all visitor data on EU-based servers. The product offers a single-page dashboard for quick insights and is significantly smaller in script size than Google Analytics.

Problem

Google Analytics is complex, slow, privacy-invasive, and requires cookie consent banners that disrupt user experience.

For

website owners and businesses who want simple, privacy-friendly analytics

How it works

Webmasters add a lightweight tracking script to their site; Plausible aggregates anonymized traffic data and displays it in a single consolidated dashboard without storing personal data or cookies.
