Why we built this

Every site used to have a hit counter — public, proud, cookieless. Then analytics got creepy. We brought it back.

We don't track people. We count them.

One line. That's it.

Paste it anywhere — the number goes up. No script tag, no build step. Works in RSS, email, even text browsers.

Privacy, in plain English

No cookies. None. We don't need them.

No cross-site tracking. Every site is sealed off.

No PII, ever. Nothing identifies a visitor.

Daily-rotating hashes. Uniques without identity; today's can't link to yesterday's.

Location, gently. IP → city → discarded.

GDPR · CCPA · DNT · GPC. All respected. No banner.

Free. Really.

Unlimited pageviews, no feature gates. No tracking, no data brokers — that's the whole deal.

Hit counters were the original analytics. We just made them cookieless.
