Cookieless by default

Designed to meet consent exemption conditions. No banner required.

Less data, more signal

Minimal collection focused on the metrics that change your decisions.

Explicit transparency

You know exactly what is collected, why, and for how long.

Quick setup

A lightweight script, a DNS check, and your first data starts flowing.

Useful signals, not a tracking factory.

Between over-collection, hard-to-read dashboards and heavy implementations, many teams end up with too much data and not enough clarity.

Too much collection by default

Useless data, invasive profiles, cookies everywhere. Most SMBs only use a fraction of what traditional tools collect.

Not enough clarity

Reports you have to build yourself, explorations to configure, a steep learning curve that most teams never climb.

Dashboards that are hard to use

Too many metrics, too many menus, too much noise. The essentials get lost in the clutter.

Less data. More clarity. Better decisions.

Pomelo rethinks audience measurement around three principles: collect only what matters, make every metric readable, and respect privacy by default.

Principle 01

Measure what matters

Pageviews, sources, campaigns, key events. The metrics that count, without the over-collection that complicates everything.

Principle 02

Reduce compliance burden

A dashboard designed to be read at a glance. No reports to build, no prior training needed.

Principle 03

Make analytics actionable

Every screen answers a specific question. You know where your traffic comes from and what’s working.

Dashboard

A dashboard designed to be read, not just looked at.

Pomelo highlights top pages, acquisition sources, campaigns, declared events and trends, without visual overload or vanity metrics.

  • Pages and sources at a glance
  • Readable campaigns and UTM
  • Useful events, no noise
  • Simple exports

Privacy

Privacy isn’t a badge. It’s a product discipline.

Pomelo is built to limit collection to what’s strictly useful, document what is measured, and make measurement choices more transparent.

What Pomelo collects

  • Pageviews
  • Traffic sources
  • UTM parameters
  • Declared events
  • Minimal technical data depending on chosen mode

What Pomelo avoids by design

  • Directly identifying data
  • Ad tracking
  • Advanced fingerprinting
  • Cross-site tracking

Built for those who want to understand, not track everything.

Pomelo is for teams looking for clear answers, not a pile of raw data.
