Plaintick

Analytics without the banner

Plaintick is cookieless, privacy-first web analytics. Version one is live under its first name, Glassbox. You paste one script tag into your site, and the dashboard fits on one screen and tells you what actually happened.

It is the analytics running on LoreKind, so one product I built is measuring another one I built.

I built my own analytics, and it measures my other product.

Fifty reports, ten seconds

Google Analytics isn’t cookieless, which means a consent banner and the drop-off that comes with it. It is also built for teams who want fifty reports.

Plaintick is built for the ten seconds you actually spend looking at analytics.
