Ask HN: Which analytics platform do you use?

4 points by verse ↗ HN
I wanted to use posthog, but usage based pricing scares me.

Other options: plausible, fathom, simple analytics

I usually deploy websites on Vercel but Vercel analytics is very limited and expensive.

What do you guys recommend?

Consider Microsoft Clarity—it's free, offers session recordings, heatmaps, and detailed insights. It's easy to integrate with Vercel, and unlike usage-based platforms, has no hidden costs. A good alternative if you want more than basic analytics.

I made and use my own.[0]

It's most similar to posthog or matomo, but focused on self-hosting, so pricing is a lot easier to predict.

How much traffic do you have?
