What is it?

Databuddy helps teams see where visitors come from, what they do in their product, and where they drop off. A single cookieless script tracks page visitors, custom events, funnels and goals, with opt-in error and web vitals tracking.

Databunny, the built-in AI analyst, answers questions about your data and shows the query behind each answer. Feature flags, short links and uptime monitoring live in the same dashboard, so teams don't need separate tools for these jobs.

You can use the hosted service or self-host with Docker Compose. Self-hosting runs the dashboard, API, event collector, uptime worker and short-link service, and stores events in ClickHouse. Email and AI features are optional.

Things to know

  • Self-hosting has no packaged release yet, so the documented setup needs a release that does not exist.
  • Self-hosting requires running PostgreSQL, ClickHouse and Redis through Docker Compose, which is a heavy setup.
  • AI insights need an AI gateway API key, and website research needs a separate CONTEXT_DEV_API_KEY.
  • The project is licensed under AGPL-3.0, a copyleft license that may restrict some commercial uses.
