About Plausible Analytics
Privacy-First Analytics Without the Complexity
Plausible gives you the website metrics that matter (visitors, pageviews, bounce rate, referral sources, top pages) in a clean, real-time dashboard. No cookies, no personal data collection, no consent banners needed.
The tracking script is under 1KB, 45x smaller than Google Analytics. Your site stays fast, and since Plausible doesn't use cookies or collect personal data, you skip the entire cookie consent process.
Open Source and Self-Hostable
The full codebase is on GitHub. Self-host on your own EU servers for complete data ownership, or use the managed cloud service with data processed on Hetzner infrastructure in Germany.
Registered in Estonia, all data on EU-owned infrastructure. Plans start at EUR 9/month for up to 10K pageviews.
