Open-source web and product analytics in one privacy-first platform — cookie-less, no fingerprinting, free to self-host with a managed cloud option.
Why we recommend it
It's the honest single-tool alternative to Google Analytics plus Mixpanel or Amplitude. Open source (AGPL-3.0), cookie-less and privacy-first, with a genuinely free self-hosted tier — ideal for makers who want to own their data.
Strengths
- Open source with free self-hosting (AGPL-3.0, ~6.8k GitHub stars)
- Combines web and product analytics in one dashboard
- Cookie-less and privacy-first — no fingerprinting
- Live interactive demo right on the site
Keep in mind
- Younger ecosystem and smaller plugin base than Google Analytics
- Cloud plan choice needs an event-volume estimate up front
