Plausible is a lightweight, privacy-friendly web analytics tool. It gives you a clear picture of how people find and use your websites — without tracking personal data, setting cookies, or requiring cookie consent banners. All data is stored on your own infrastructure.

It's a straightforward alternative to Google Analytics for organizations that care about visitor privacy and data sovereignty.

Dependencies

PostgreSQL - Database for storing sites, users, and configuration
ClickHouse - Bundled analytics event database (deployed automatically within the Plausible namespace)

Configuration

Key settings configured through your instance's config.yaml:

domain - Where Plausible will be accessible (default: plausible.{your-cloud-domain})
plausibleStorage - Persistent volume for Plausible app data (default: 1Gi)
clickhouseStorage - Persistent volume for analytics event data (default: 10Gi). Increase this if you expect high traffic volumes.
disableRegistration - Controls who can create accounts: "false" (open), "invite_only", or "true" (default: "false")

Access

After deployment, Plausible will be available at:

https://plausible.{your-cloud-domain} — Dashboard and admin

First-Time Setup

Add and deploy the app:

wild app add plausible
wild app deploy plausible

Open https://plausible.{your-cloud-domain} and register an account. The first registered user becomes the admin.
Once your account is created, set disableRegistration: "invite_only" in your config.yaml to prevent open registration, then redeploy:
```
wild app deploy plausible
```

Add a website in the Plausible dashboard and copy the tracking snippet into your site's <head>:

<script defer data-domain="yourdomain.com"
  src="https://plausible.{your-cloud-domain}/js/script.js"></script>

Inviting Users

With registration set to invite_only, you can invite teammates from Settings → Users in the Plausible dashboard.
