Ackee

Ackee is a lightweight, open-source, self-hosted web analytics tool built with Node.js and MongoDB. It emphasizes a minimal, beautiful interface for tracking essential metrics—pageviews, referrers, device types, and custom events—without the clutter of enterprise analytics. Like Umami, it respects privacy (no cookies, no PII tracking) and gives you complete data ownership.\n\nFor indie makers who value aesthetics and control, Ackee strikes a balance between simplicity (Plausible) and flexibility (Metabase). The interface is visually refined, the API is powerful and extensible, and the entire platform remains free and open source. Self-hosting on a $5/month VPS is straightforward; you get automatic GraphQL API access for building custom integrations. Perfect for solo founders who want beautiful analytics without compromise.
