Choose Plausible ifβ¦
- You only need web analytics and have no mobile/Flutter app to cover.
- You want the most established, widely-adopted privacy-first analytics brand.
- You'd rather self-host an open-source tool than use a managed service.
Choose Mitr ifβ¦
- You're shipping a Flutter app alongside a website and want one SDK family and one dashboard for both.
- You want a free tier that doesn't expire, without moving to self-hosting.
- You need DPDP Act 2023 (India) alignment specifically, in addition to GDPR/CCPA β see /trust.
What's the same either way
Both are genuinely cookie-free β no consent banner required for basic analytics under GDPR's ePrivacy Directive interpretation, since neither writes to browser storage for anonymous visitors. Neither sells or shares visitor data. If cookie-free is your primary requirement, either product satisfies it; the decision comes down to platform coverage and pricing model from there.
