Analytics that lives inside your app.
Runlight is privacy friendly web analytics that you run yourself. It counts visitors without cookies and without storing anyone's IP address, so there's no consent banner to show. The numbers stay in your own database, and the dashboard is served from your own domain. It covers pages, sources, goals and revenue, funnels, AI agents reading your pages, and short links on your own domains, and the tracking script is under 2 KB. MIT licensed.
