Where Autessa wins

Why teams pick Autessa Analytics over Plausible Analytics

Know who converted

Plausible keeps visitors anonymous on purpose, which suits many sites. When sales needs names, Autessa shows each converter with first source, journey and replay.

Your app, not only your site

Active users, active companies, feature adoption and milestones for your signed-in product sit beside your marketing numbers.

Newsletter numbers you can trust

Email security scanners are recognized and left out of every website report, with the count shown.

Open code, without the hosting

Plausible’s source is open if you run it yourself. With Autessa you ask Autobot for the change in plain language and it edits your copy of the app, code and all, with nothing to host.

Ask your analytics anything

The Autessa MCP lets Claude or your own agent read campaigns, companies and people, so “which accounts went quiet this month?” is one question.
