Millimetric vs.

Umami

Self-host the open source, or just curl ours.

In one paragraph

Umami is great — small footprint, easy to self-host, clean UI. If you have a server and an hour, it's a no-brainer. Millimetric is for the cases when you'd rather not run another Postgres just to count pageviews — and you want an MCP server agents can talk to.

Pick Umami when…

You already self-host things and enjoy it.
You want full control of the database row, GDPR-style.
You want a free, MIT-licensed dashboard.

Pick Millimetric when…

You don't want to run yet another service.
You want an API and an MCP server, not just a UI.
You want hosted ingestion at Cloudflare's edge (42 ms p95).
