YourTraffic vs Plausible

YourTraffic and Plausible sit close together. Both are privacy-first, both are cookie-free and both keep the dashboard clean. The differences are in openness, limits and tooling.

Open source

Plausible offers a hosted product and a separate community edition. YourTraffic is fully open under the MIT license, the same product whether you self-host or use the cloud. No feature is held back for a paid tier.

Limits and pricing

Plausible prices by monthly pageviews. YourTraffic has no per-site limits and no pageview caps when you self-host, so tracking one site or a hundred costs the same. The cloud option is there if you would rather not run it.

Data ownership

Self-hosted YourTraffic keeps every event in your own Postgres database. Nothing is sent to a third party, and you can query the raw data whenever you want.

API and agents

Both tools have an API. YourTraffic goes further with a native MCP server, so an AI agent can sign in through OAuth and read your traffic directly. That makes it a stronger fit if automation or agent tooling is part of your workflow.

The bottom line

If you like Plausible but want the open version with no ceilings and agent support built in, YourTraffic is the closer match. Add a site, paste one script tag and stats appear within seconds.
