One screen. A few seconds. Then back to building.

Everything on one page.

Page views

Every page, counted once per view — including client-side navigation in single-page apps.

Visitors

Approximate unique visitors per day, estimated without cookies or fingerprinting.

Traffic sources

Google, GitHub, Hacker News, newsletters. Referrers are reduced to a readable name.

Countries

Country-level location from your hosting provider. Never cities, never coordinates.

Devices

Desktop, mobile or tablet, plus browser and operating system. Families, not versions.

Privacy

No cookies, no personal data, no raw IP addresses stored. Nothing to put in a banner.

A tracker you'll forget is there.

One script tag. It loads with defer, never blocks rendering, sends events with sendBeacon, and fails silently. If Tinylytics is down, your site doesn't notice.

Gzipped: ~1 KB
Dependencies: 0

Open source. Yours to run.

Tinylytics is MIT licensed. Read every line of the tracker, audit what is stored, or run the whole thing on your own Supabase project and Next.js host.

Plain PostgreSQL. Events and daily rollups live in tables you can query yourself.
Row Level Security. Every read is scoped to the signed-in owner, enforced by the database.
Documented privacy model. Exactly what is collected, how visitors are estimated, and what is not.
