The Simplytics dashboard: visitors, views, sessions and bounce rate with previous-period changes, average duration without a comparison, a live visitor count, and the last 7 days of traffic over the previous period

Everything you'd pay $9–15/month for elsewhere

Every picture below is the real product, filled with demo data.

01

Know where traffic comes from — even AI

Referrers group into channels automatically, AI included: see what ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude send you, with zero setup. Visitors, views, sessions and bounce rate compare with the previous period.

The Top Sources card: google.com, chatgpt.com, news.ycombinator.com, reddit.com, perplexity.ai and claude.ai among the referrers, each with its icon, counted in visitors
02

All your sites on one screen

Every site gets a trend graph for the period you pick, green or red against the one before. Add as many sites as you like: they are unlimited on every plan.

The Your Websites list: the site count and the last 7 days' pageviews under the heading, the period a menu, then five sites, each with a 7-day views graph and a green or red change
03

See the world at a glance

Countries, regions, cities, browsers, OS and devices, each a tab away, plus your busiest hours and a year of views as heatmaps. Flip countries into a world map: the darker the country, the more visitors it sends.

04

Measure what matters

Custom events with conversion rates, outbound link clicks and file downloads tracked automatically, UTM campaigns, and multi-step funnels. Unlimited funnels on every paid plan; up to 100 during the free trial.

05

Your stats find you

A spike alert the morning after any site does ~3× its usual traffic, and a weekly or monthly summary of all your sites.

06

Private by default, public when you want

Dashboards are private by default. After we confirm the site is yours, make one public in one click, with your logo, on your own subdomain (it earns you a backlink), or show just a live view-counter badge in your own colour and style.

The Private/Public switch set to Public, with buttons for the public page, the badge (on) and the custom domain stats.larchnote.app (active)
07

Frequently asked questions

Visitors and pages are counted without visitor cookies. Simplytics briefly holds a daily visitor hash, and some page paths or event names may identify a person. Tell your visitors they are counted and check whether your use needs consent; the opt-out page shows how they can say no.

You simply copy/paste a lightweight script onto your website's HTML. This script then forwards our servers the data we need to give you your analytics.

Yes. Add as many sites as you like. Unlimited funnels on every paid plan; up to 100 during the free trial. Real traffic is never paused or capped: every pageview is counted, however big it gets. Fair use is about fake traffic: known bots are filtered out, and we may block traffic that is clearly an attack, or an account pumping fake views.

Yes. The script tracks history-API navigations automatically — every route change counts as a pageview, with the previous page as the referrer. Hash-based routing (#/page) is the one pattern that isn't auto-tracked.

Yes. Export any dataset to CSV from the dashboard, or everything in one ZIP. The stats API returns the same numbers as JSON.

A live SVG badge — "site.com | 1.2k visitors this month" — for your README, blog or footer, per-site or per-page. Pick flat, pill or a ticker with its trend, in your own colour. It keeps working even while your dashboard stays private (badge-only mode), and a public dashboard earns you a backlink.

Yes: give a month, get a month. Anyone who signs up with your invite link gets 60 days free, and you get a free month when they first pay. The link is on your account page.

An easy and affordable payment. No hidden fees and no usage tiers — unlimited sites and pageviews on every plan.
