Fathom - simple website analytics

Go Report Card MIT licensed

Fathom Analytics is a simpler and more privacy-focused alternative to Google Analytics.

Collecting information on the internet is important, but its broken. Weve become complacent in trading information for free access to web services, and then complaining when those web services do crappy things with that data.

The problem is this: if we arent paying for the product, we are the product.

Google Analytics may give you free access to their services but in turn, theyre assembling data profiles on your website visitors, which they can then use for better targeting of advertisements across their network.

We need to stop giving away our data and our users' privacy for free access to a tool.

Fathom respects the privacy of your users and does not collect any personally identifiable information. All while giving you the information you need about your site, so you can make smarter decisions about your design and content.

Installation

For getting a development version of Fathom up & running, go through the following steps.

  2. Download the code: git clone https://github.com/usefathom/fathom.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/usefathom/fathom
  3. Compile the project: make build
  4. (Optional) Set custom configuration values.
  5. (Optional) Register a user account: fathom user add --email=<email> --password=<password>
  6. Start the webserver: fathom server and then visit http://localhost:8080 to access your analytics dashboard

Tracking snippet

To start tracking, create a site in your Fathom dashboard and copy the tracking snippet to the website(s) you want to track.

Content Security Policy
