ℹ️ What is Swetrix?

Swetrix is a cookieless, GDPR-compliant analytics platform — a privacy-respecting alternative to Google Analytics. No cookies, no consent banner, no cross-device tracking, all data anonymised. It's the only thing on the page and the dashboard is fast and real-time.

It goes beyond pageviews: alongside traffic stats you get error tracking, performance monitoring, session replays, funnels and custom events — so you can replace several tools with one.

Open source since 2021, bootstrapped, and funded entirely by our subscribers. Made in the 🇬🇧 UK, hosted on Hetzner in 🇩🇪 Germany.

👉 Try it free on Swetrix Cloud or self-host with Docker.

✨ Features

Cookieless & privacy-first — GDPR-compliant by design, no cookies, anonymised data. (Data Policy)
Lightweight script — a small tracking snippet and a snappy real-time dashboard.
The metrics that matter — top pages, geolocation with map view, devices, traffic sources and UTM campaigns.
Network intelligence (Cloud) — break traffic down by ISP, organisation, usage type (residential / business / hosting / cellular) and connection type to spot bot and datacenter traffic.
Custom events & properties — track conversions, sales or any key action with your own semantics.
Sessions & user flows — understand journeys and behaviour across your site.
Funnels — visualise drop-offs and improve conversion rates.
Performance monitoring — real-user metrics (TTFB, DNS, TLS, render) to keep pages fast.
Error tracking — capture client-side errors with details and aggregated views.
Session replays (Cloud) — replay sessions to see exactly where visitors get stuck.
Sharing & teams — public or password-protected dashboards; invite teammates with roles, or manage access with organisations.
Data portability — export to CSV and access everything via the developer API.
More — alerts & notifications, feature flags, A/B experiments, revenue analytics and Ask AI (Cloud).
