tracing.tools vs Plausible
The same privacy stance, plus revenue and a copilot.
Plausible made cookieless analytics respectable, and tracing.tools keeps the same rules: no cookies, no banner, no personal data. On top of that it ties every payment back to the referrer, campaign and landing page that earned it, and lets you ask questions instead of building filters.
Revenue, not just goals
A goal tells you a checkout happened. tracing.tools records the amount and attributes it, so the sources you compare are ranked by money, not by conversions.
Ask, don't dig
“Why did traffic spike yesterday?” is a question, so you can ask it. The copilot answers from the same numbers the dashboard shows and never invents a metric.
Same script weight, same privacy
The tracker is 1.4 kB gzipped, loads deferred and stores nothing in the browser. A visitor is a salted hash that rotates every day.
