Cookie-free uniques with daily rotating salt
Counts daily unique visitors by hashing IP + User-Agent + domain with a salt that is destroyed every 24 hours. No cookies, localStorage, or device-persistent IDs; raw IP and full UA are not stored. Trade-off: no multi-day retention or new-vs-returning series.
City-level geo without retained IPs
Derives continent, country, region, and city for maps and rankings from the request IP, then discards the IP. Useful for market mix reporting when you do not need ISP- or coordinate-level precision.
AI referral and channel acquisition views
Breaks down how visitors arrive—search, referring sites, and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude—so content teams can see discovery outside classic SEO referrers.
Real-time dashboard, events, export, and API
Live visitor activity, page performance, device/browser/OS stats, custom events and campaigns, weekly email reports, data export, and API access on published plans. Integrations include a WordPress plugin and Google Tag Manager snippet placement.
Public B2B DPA with processor role
A published Data Processing Agreement (effective August 2022) treats Analyzati as processor and the customer as controller for visitor measurement. Acceptance is tied to product use under the Terms of Service rather than a bespoke countersignature workflow.
Sub-1 kB cookieless tracking script
Vendor documents a client script under 1 kB with no cookies, no IP tracking, and no fingerprinting for site visitors. Suited to teams that want aggregate traffic metrics without analytics cookie banners; still get counsel for your jurisdiction and CMP setup.
Realtime dashboard with geo, tech, and campaigns
Dashboards cover live visitors, overview metrics, top pages, referrers, UTM campaigns, geography from continent to city, and device/browser/OS breakdowns—enough for content and acquisition decisions without a full product-analytics suite.
Custom events, CSV export, and email reports
Define custom events for conversion-style actions, export statistics as CSV, and receive email reports. Fits operators who need lightweight conversion signals and offline analysis rather than session replay or multi-step funnels.
REST API for stats, websites, and account
Documented API endpoints (Bearer API key) manage stats queries (pageviews, visitors, referrers, events, geo, devices, and more), websites, and account objects—useful for internal dashboards or automations on traffic-based plans that include API access.
Unlimited websites on traffic-based plans
Public pricing model is pageview-tier SaaS with unlimited websites per account and a short free trial—not a permanent free tier. Good for agencies or multi-brand operators who outgrow per-site free plans elsewhere; confirm current tiers on the vendor site.
| Assurance & compliance | Analyzati | nilly |
|---|---|---|
| Independent security / no-logs audit | Not found No public third-party audit PDF or no-logs attestation found on official pages reviewed. | Not found No public third-party audit report found for tracking claims. |
| ISO 27001 | Not found No ISO 27001 certificate claim located on homepage, privacy, or DPA pages. | Not found No vendor ISO 27001 certificate published on product site (underlying Swiss host DCs may be certified separately). |
| SOC 2 / SOC 3 | Not found No SOC 2/3 report claim found on public trust materials. | Not found |
| GDPR / EU data protection | Vendor claimed EU entity (Barcelona); public GDPR/PECR/CCPA compliance pages; anonymisation design documented; controller/processor roles in DPA. | Vendor claimed Swiss entity; privacy policy includes GDPR rights language; cookieless visitor tracking claimed. Confirm DPA for B2B. |
| US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative) | Partial Spanish/EU vendor with no known US parent, but application hosting on AWS (Paris) and US-group subprocessors (Stripe, Freshworks, AWS email, hCaptcha). Residency ≠ ownership. Not legal advice. | Partial Swiss operator, no known US parent, Swiss-claimed analytics hosting; US SaaS subprocessors Stripe (payments) and Gravatar (avatars) on customer path. Not legal advice. |
| Data processing agreement (B2B) | Vendor claimed Public DPA effective 18 Aug 2022; vendor says acceptance is automatic via product use / ToS—no separate signature required. | Not found No public DPA download found; request from vendor. |
| EU AI Act | Not applicable Product reports AI *referral traffic*; it is not marketed as a high-risk AI system provider. | Not applicable Web analytics product; not marketed as an AI system. |
| Swiss Made Software / Swiss Web labels | Not listed | Vendor claimed Cited on About and Swiss Union member page as recognition/labels—not a security audit. |
| Considerations & known limitations | Analyzati | nilly |
|---|---|---|
| AWS and US-group subprocessors | Medium Measurement app is on AWS Paris; account path also uses Stripe, Freshworks, AWS email, and hCaptcha. EU regions reduce some transfer friction but do not erase US-group provider diligence for many public-sector and bank questionnaires. | Not listed |
| No public ISO/SOC or independent audit | Medium Security claims rely on vendor documentation (HTTPS, hashing, firewalls, backups). Organisations with mandatory cert evidence will need vendor outreach or a different shortlist. | Not listed |
| No multi-day visitor identity | Low Daily salt rotation blocks persistent uniques. Expect gaps vs Google Analytics for returning users, frequency, and retention—by design. | Not listed |
| SaaS lock-in / no self-host | Low No self-host edition found. Exit requires export/API migration to another tool; confirm export completeness in a trial. | Low Cannot run on your own infra or audit server code from a public repo. Hard limit for sovereignty programs that require self-host. |
| Exact registry name not on marketing pages | Low Vendor states Barcelona incorporation but public pages reviewed did not display a full Spanish company registration string—collect CIF/NIF and full legal name during contracting. | Not listed |
| Brand/domain transition (nilly.io vs kandur.one) | Not listed | Medium Product still branded nilly, but the live marketing/API host is kandur.one; nilly.io did not resolve in DNS during research. Verify tracking domains, docs, and status before production cutover. |
| US SaaS on customer account path | Not listed | Medium Stripe (payments) and Gravatar (avatars) are US-group services. Visitor metrics are claimed Swiss-hosted and non-personal, but account/billing data is not Switzerland-only end-to-end. |
| Thin public assurance pack | Not listed | Medium No public ISO 27001/SOC 2, independent security audit, or DPA page found. Fine for many SMB shortlists; friction for regulated enterprise questionnaires. |
| Small independent operator | Not listed | Low Founder-owned Swiss GmbH without VC narrative—positive for independence, but buyers should assess support SLAs, roadmap continuity, and single-vendor concentration. |
When: You need open-source analytics you can self-host and audit
Consider: Plausible Analytics (self-host option) or Matomo
Analyzati is SaaS-only with no public source release found.
When: You want a comparable cookie-free European SaaS peer for side-by-side trials
Consider: Plausible Analytics or Simple Analytics
Compare AI-referrer and geo depth, DPA wording, and hosting/subprocessor lists in each trial.
When: You need full-stack product analytics and advertising linkage
Consider: Google Analytics (incumbent) or a dedicated product analytics suite
Analyzati deliberately collects a minimal metric set and does not sell ad-tech profiles.
When: You want open-source and/or self-host privacy analytics with a larger community
Consider: Plausible Analytics or Pirsch Analytics
nilly is proprietary SaaS only.
When: You want another European cookieless SaaS with a simple product story
Consider: Simple Analytics
Dutch peer; compare geo depth, API, and residency claims side by side.
When: You need deeper marketing, shop, and tag/consent analytics for EU enterprises
Consider: etracker
German suite-oriented alternative; heavier than nilly's lightweight dashboard.
When: You depend on free unlimited scale and Google ads/ecosystem integration
Consider: Google Analytics (GA4)
Different privacy and residency tradeoffs; not a sovereignty shortlist.
