What it is
Plausible is web analytics reduced to what most sites actually need: one lightweight script, one readable dashboard, no cookies and no consent banner required for it. As an EU-hosted, open-source, subscription-funded product, its privacy stance is structural rather than marketing. It deliberately omits user-level funnels, session recordings and ad-platform integrations — sites that live on paid acquisition will miss those, while content sites rarely do.
