TelemetryDeck - Lightweight analytics that's not evil | Product Hunt

Hi I'm Daniel!

I worked at various privacy-conscious companies such as @getkeepsafe and @cliqz because I love creating cool things without selling out users' personal data. After going indie, I wanted to know how my apps were doing – how many users do they have, what are the retention numbers, which kinds of features do people use?

Every app maker today has to make this off-putting choice: Use the free analytics tools that greedily slurp in every last bit of user data they can get to. Or use expensive, hard-to use products that need a whole data science division to use properly.

I teamed up with my amazing friend @meet_lisa and we're setting out to change that. We're offering easy to use, light-weight analytics that are private by design. We have open-source packages for the major platforms that you drop in and start sending completely anonymised analytics signals in real time. And we provide a comprehensive set of prepared insights over your data, plus the option to freely query your data yourself.

Privacy is super important by itself, but this also has a net benefit: You don't need to throw up a banner asking for permission to share users' private data if you never upload that anywhere to begin with.

What is something that you need to know about your app? Let us know your questions and where a good new analytics service can help you!

I've been using Telemetry Deck for about 2 months in my app Pestle Kitchen Companion and have been so happy with it. To be able to collect really useful information about how people use my app without having to compromise user privacy is awesome.

Hey Daniel, thank you so much for such a tool! I’m a happy customer and use it for multiple apps for both iOS and macOS, it makes analytics so easy with just a minute long setup and native apps for viewing it are making it even better!
