GoatCounter
GoatCounter delivers meaningful web traffic insights — pageviews, referrers, browsers, screen sizes, country-level geolocation — without setting a single cookie, without collecting personal data, and without forcing GDPR consent banners on your visitors. Written entirely in Go and distributed as a single compiled binary consuming roughly 25MB of RAM, it adds just 3.5KB to your pages via the tracking script, with a JavaScript-free tracking pixel alternative for sites that avoid scripts entirely, plus backend middleware integration and log file import for server-side collection. The dashboard displays pageview counts per path with hourly resolution, referrer sources grouped by domain with full URL on hover, browser and OS version breakdowns, screen size distributions, and country-level location data derived from IP addresses that are immediately discarded after geolocation. Campaign tracking supports UTM parameters and custom data attributes. A public stats option exposes your dashboard at a shareable URL for build-in-public transparency. SQLite serves as the default database requiring zero administration, while PostgreSQL handles higher-traffic deployments with multi-site setups. Built-in ACME and TLS certificate management eliminates reverse proxy requirements for HTTPS — no Nginx or Caddy needed. The REST API provides programmatic access to all analytics data. Deploy as a single binary, via Docker with the official arp242/goatcounter image, or through native packages. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. EUPL-1.2 licensed.
Traffic Source
Traffic Source answers the three questions every site owner actually asks: who showed up, where did they come from, and did they pay. The live dashboard counts visitors in real time alongside pageviews, sessions, bounce rate, and session duration, with no cookie banner required because tracking uses no cookies at all. Referrer and UTM breakdowns show exactly which campaigns, newsletters, and posts earn their traffic, while country and city data arrives through proxy headers. Visitor journeys replay every page a person viewed before converting, so you can see the path from first click to checkout instead of guessing. Connect Stripe once and payments are matched to the sessions that produced them automatically, with no webhook plumbing to maintain. The affiliate system lets you create partners with custom commission rates and shareable referral links, and each affiliate gets a public dashboard showing their own clicks and earnings. Search Console data is pulled into the same screen, where a keyword explorer shows the pages, countries, and devices behind any query. One tiny tracking script covers all your sites, including single-page apps. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
OpenReplay
Backed by 12,400+ GitHub stars and positioned as the self-hosted alternative to FullStory and Hotjar, OpenReplay delivers the open-source session replay platform that keeps every byte of user behavior data on your own infrastructure. The JavaScript tracker captures pixel-perfect recordings of clicks, scrolls, form inputs, and navigation with automatic sensitive data masking, while simultaneously logging network requests, console errors, JavaScript exceptions, and Redux, VueX, MobX, NgRx, Pinia, and Zustand store state changes for complete technical context. DevTools mode reconstructs each session with full stack traces, GraphQL queries from Apollo and Relay, Fetch and Axios request payloads, CPU and memory metrics, and page speed waterfall charts — effectively giving developers a browser inspector tied to any user session. Product analytics surfaces conversion funnels, user journeys, click heatmaps, web vitals trends, and retention cohorts without requiring custom instrumentation. Co-browsing connects support agents to live user sessions with cursor control and WebRTC audio, enabling real-time assistance without third-party screen-sharing software. Integrations push session context into Sentry, Datadog, CloudWatch, Stackdriver, and Elastic for front-to-back debugging. Feature flags enable gradual rollouts with session-level targeting. The platform deploys to any cloud via Docker and Kubernetes with auto-scaling ingestion handling up to 50,000 sessions per month on the open-source edition. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPLv3 licensed.
Rybbit
Google Analytics without the cookie banner or the maze of menus: Rybbit puts web and product analytics for every site you run on one readable dashboard, hosted on your own server. Pageviews, sessions, unique users, bounce rate, session duration, traffic sources, campaigns, devices, and countries update in real time beside a live visitor count. Session replay lets you watch the visits behind the numbers, and user profiles tie identified visitors to their sessions and events. Funnels pinpoint where conversions leak, journeys chart the paths people take through a site, retention reports show who comes back, and goals track conversions from page visits, custom events, and autocaptured clicks. Custom events carry JSON properties, filters slice every report across more than 15 dimensions, saved segments reapply them in one click, and location tracking drills from country to region to city on interactive maps, with optional 3D globe views through a Mapbox token. Error tracking connects JavaScript failures to the affected sessions, so a spike in errors leads straight to the visits that explain it. One install serves unlimited sites and organizations with role-based access, public dashboards share a site's stats through a link, and a tracking script of about 11 KB compressed collects data with no cookies and no consent banner. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Umami
No cookies, no fingerprinting, no cross-site tracking, no personal data collection - Umami's privacy contract is the foundation of the open-source web analytics platform. IP addresses are hashed rather than stored, which makes it GDPR, CCPA, and PECR compliant by default - the consent banner can come off the site entirely. The tracking script is under 2 KB, roughly 20x smaller than Google Analytics, so measurement stops being a page-weight tax. The dashboard covers the core metrics - pageviews, visitors, bounce rate, visit duration, referrers, browsers, devices, and countries - with any date range and filtering by country or device. Beyond pageviews, custom events track clicks, form submissions, and signups via a data attribute or one JavaScript call, and advanced reports add funnels, user journeys, retention and cohort analysis, goals, and automatic UTM campaign tracking. Anonymous session views show individual visitor activity without identifying anyone. Teams share websites with role-based access, one instance manages unlimited sites, and a full REST API exposes every metric programmatically. MIT-licensed and self-hosted on PostgreSQL or MySQL via Docker, your analytics data never leaves your infrastructure.
GoAccess
GoAccess processes millions of web log entries in seconds and renders the results as interactive dashboards that update every 200 milliseconds in the terminal or every second via WebSocket-connected HTML reports. Written entirely in C with only ncurses as a dependency, it achieves exceptional performance even on resource-constrained servers, reducing memory usage by approximately 20% and parsing time by 35% in recent releases through optimized in-memory hash tables with on-disk persistence support. The analyzer parses virtually every web log format out of the box (Apache Combined and Common, Nginx, Amazon CloudFront, Amazon S3, AWS Elastic Load Balancing, Google Cloud Storage, Squid, W3C IIS, Caddy JSON, and Traefik) while supporting fully custom log format strings for non-standard configurations. The self-contained HTML dashboard displays 15+ interactive panels covering unique visitors, requested files, static files, 404 errors, referring sites, search keyphrases, geographic location with city-level GeoIP resolution, operating systems, browsers, HTTP status codes, time distribution, and virtual host metrics. WebSocket authentication via JWT provides secure remote access, and incremental log processing ensures data continuity across daemon restarts. Docker deployment requires a single command with volume-mapped access logs. Over 20,800 stars with active development since 2010. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
HitKeep
HitKeep is a sovereign web analytics platform that consolidates cookieless visitor telemetry, conversion funnels, e-commerce revenue reports, and AI engine visibility into a privacy-respecting dashboard that replaces Google Analytics and complex tracking clouds. Marketing teams can monitor inbound visitor journeys without installing intrusive consent banners or violating regional GDPR regulations. Custom conversion funnels and goal milestones track user registrations, checkout transactions, newsletter subscriptions, and software downloads with exact revenue attribution. Integrated Google Search Console synchronization brings organic search queries, keyword impression rankings, and click-through metrics directly alongside real-time pageview logs. A dedicated artificial intelligence visibility dashboard monitors crawling bots, retrieval citations, and direct referral visits originating from ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and other generative search agents. Growth analysts can pose natural language questions to an embedded AI reporting assistant, generating instant cohort breakdowns and engagement trends without assembling complex manual filters. Site operators can configure custom tracking domains, whitelist reverse proxy networks, filter out referrer spam, and schedule automated database backups across persistent storage volumes. Complete data sovereignty controls allow teams to export raw event telemetry into open Parquet and CSV archives or stream metrics into external business intelligence warehouses via webhooks. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
OpenPanel
Known as the open-source Mixpanel alternative that respects user privacy, OpenPanel delivers a unified web and product analytics platform combining Mixpanel's behavioral analysis with the simplicity of Plausible and full data ownership through self-hosting. Cookieless tracking eliminates consent banners entirely while still capturing events, page views, sessions, user journeys, funnels, retention cohorts, and custom properties with full GDPR compliance by design. The 2.3 KB async script loads without blocking page rendering, and 16 official SDKs cover Next.js, React, Vue, Astro, Remix, Nuxt, Angular, Svelte, React Native, Swift, Kotlin, Python, PHP, Laravel, Express, and REST API for custom integrations. Real-time dashboards display live visitor counts, active sessions, and event streams as they happen. Custom chart builders create tailored visualizations from any tracked event with breakdowns by property, time period, and user segment. Session replay reconstructs individual user journeys showing every page visited, event triggered, and interaction recorded. Funnel analysis identifies conversion drop-offs with step-by-step breakdown and property filtering. Retention analysis measures how often users return with customizable time windows and cohort comparisons. A/B testing and variant tracking enable experiment measurement directly within the platform. Event notifications alert when specific events occur or thresholds are crossed. The self-hosted deployment uses Docker Compose with ClickHouse for high-speed analytical queries, PostgreSQL for metadata, and Redis for real-time processing — deployable on any VPS or Kubernetes cluster. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Betterlytics
Page views, funnels, session replays, error reports, Core Web Vitals, and uptime checks share one cookieless dashboard in Betterlytics, so teams stop stitching several tools together. The overview charts visitors, page views, bounce rate, and visit duration against the previous period, and annotations mark launches or campaigns right on the timeline. Breakdowns cover referrers, channels, UTM campaigns, browsers, devices, and operating systems, with visitor locations on a world map once an optional MaxMind key is added. Custom events, global properties such as plan or app version, and outbound link tracking show what visitors actually do, while user journey diagrams and funnels reveal where they drift away. Session replay is opt-in per tracking script, masks text and form inputs by default, and can keep recordings in your own S3-compatible bucket. Error tracking groups JavaScript errors with stack traces, a session trail, and a link to the matching replay. Uptime and SSL monitors alert through Slack, Discord, Teams, or webhooks and feed public status pages on your own domain. Teammates join by invitation, two-factor login is available, and a built-in MCP server lets Claude, Cursor, or Codex answer traffic questions. A script of about 3.5 KB or a WordPress plugin handles installation. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Liwan
When you want honest traffic numbers without tracking cookies or stored IP addresses, Liwan puts a real-time analytics dashboard on your own server. The dashboard ranks pages, referrers, countries, browsers, platforms, and devices, charts visitors over time, and filters out bot traffic by default. Session metrics add bounce rate, average time on site, and entry and exit pages, while UTM fields attribute visits to campaigns. Collection is adjustable globally and per site: choose how visitors are grouped, whether to store country and city, country only, or no location, and how long events are kept. Drop rules discard internal, test, and local traffic before storage, and a pruning tool applies new settings to history after a dry-run preview. Tracking is one line of HTML, or your own server can send events with custom names and properties. Location can come from a MaxMind database or from Cloudflare, Vercel, and other proxy headers. One instance holds several projects and sites, with team accounts and single sign-on through Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, or an OpenID Connect provider such as Keycloak or Dex. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
GEOInflow
GEOInflow is a self-hosted analytics platform that shows website owners which AI crawlers visit their pages, what those crawlers read, and how much traffic and revenue AI search actually sends back. Import a sitemap, CSV, or JSON inventory and the coverage report compares it against observed crawl logs, flagging important pages that no AI crawler has ever requested and directories where coverage keeps dropping. The built-in catalog recognizes 61 AI crawler identities, including crawlers from OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, Google, Microsoft, ByteDance, Baidu, Kimi, and Tencent Hunyuan, and separates training, AI search, and user-triggered visits. Verification combines declared user agents with official IP ranges and DNS evidence, so a spoofed crawler name never counts as a confirmed visit. Browser tracking connects AI search referrals to landing pages, custom events, goals, funnels, and conversions, letting teams measure whether visibility in AI answers turns into signups and sales. Alongside the GEO reports, teams get pageviews, unique visitors, referrers, geography, devices, heatmaps, retention, and visitor paths, with CSV, JSON, and ZIP exports for any selected scope. Workspaces, team permissions, and public sharing links let agencies and publishers give each client or department its own dashboards without exposing raw data or other sites. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Medama
Track website traffic and conversion funnels with sub-second precision while guaranteeing visitors total anonymity with Medama, a privacy-first web analytics platform operating without cookies, IP storage, or consent banners. Site owners embed a sub-kilobyte tracking script into web headers to record page views, session duration, referrers, screen resolutions, browser user agents, and geographic countries anonymously. Built-in caching header mechanisms determine unique daily visitors without generating persistent hashes or storing cross-site identifiers that violate privacy regulations. The web dashboard visualizes hourly traffic trends with interactive area charts and provides multi-dimensional data tables breaking down top-performing pages, search engine referrers, operating systems, and campaign UTM parameters. Developers can instrument custom click events and page attributes using simple HTML data attributes to measure conversions, document downloads, button interactions, and user subscription states. Administrators manage multiple websites from a single interface, configure curated anti-spam blocklists using Firehol and Tor exit node feeds, and monitor server CPU, memory, and disk usage in real time. Full OpenAPI specification endpoints allow teams to export analytics data directly into internal business intelligence pipelines and custom executive dashboards. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
Talivia
Founders do not need another chart of pageviews; they need to know which visit became money, and Talivia is a self-hosted, revenue-first analytics platform that fuses website traffic with payment data so every metric answers in dollars. Connect Stripe, LemonSqueezy, Polar, Dodo, or Yolfi, and the dashboard pairs visitor counts with revenue, conversion rate, revenue per visitor, refunds, and disputes, so a traffic spike that never buys anything stops masquerading as success. Referrers, campaigns, keywords, and countries are ranked by the money they produce, which reduces budget decisions to one question: which channel brought customers who actually paid? When a page underperforms, session replay shows what visitors actually did there and the moment they gave up, so you debug journeys instead of guessing from aggregates. Events and multi-step funnels trace the path from landing page to checkout, while bot traffic detection stops crawlers from inflating your conversion statistics. The live visitor feed shows who is browsing right now, with country, device, browser, acquisition source, events, and spend for each session as it unfolds. Public links publish any dashboard as a read-only page for investors or clients, and teammates join the workspace with their own accounts when they need to dig deeper. Visitors, replays, and payment records all stay in your own PostgreSQL database, so customer journeys never pass through a third-party analytics cloud. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
