Analytics

Scan analytics is first-party: measured at our edge as the redirect happens, not by a Google tag on someone's page. No cookie is set on scanners, ever · uniques are estimated with a counting sketch, and the number is labeled as the estimate it is.

What is measured

  • Totals and a daily timeseries, with the headline compared against the previous equal-length window · and no delta shown at all when there is no honest baseline to compare against.
  • Uniques without cookies. A per-day sketch estimates distinct visitors; nothing identifies a person and nothing follows them between scans.
  • Bots, shown not hidden. Automated hits are flagged and reported as their own number rather than silently folded into your reach.
  • 8 breakdowns · country · city · device · browser · OS · referrer · UTM source · hour of day · plus your top links, filterable to a single link or a folder subtree.
  • A live feed · the last scans as they happen, in Dashboard → Live.

Ranges and retention

Ranges: 7 days · 30 days · 90 days · 180 days · 365 days · all time (default 30). Up to 90 days is served live from the edge analytics store; 180 days, 365 days and all-time come from a nightly rollup, so history does not expire when the live window does. Retention is not a tier: every pack keeps the rollup.

Getting it out

  • Shareable reports · white-label, signed, stateless links that expire after 30 days; hand one to a client with no login.
  • CSV export · the raw numbers, yours.
  • API · GET /api/v1/analytics returns everything above as JSON. Reference.
  • Webhooks · a signed POST per scan, in real time, for your own pipeline. Verification snippet.
