About Beam

Beam is a privacy-first web analytics service built on Cloudflare's global edge network. It gives site owners the traffic data they need — pageviews, referrers, top pages, countries, browsers, and devices — without using cookies, storing personal data, or requiring a consent banner. The tracking script is under 2KB, loads asynchronously, and never slows down your site.

We built Beam because most analytics tools force a trade-off between useful data and visitor privacy. Google Analytics shares your visitors' data with Google's advertising infrastructure. Privacy-focused alternatives like Plausible and Fathom are good products but can be expensive for smaller sites and indie developers. Beam offers the same cookie-free, GDPR-compliant approach starting completely free, with a Pro plan at $5/month.

Beam is operated by Keylight Digital LLC, a software company focused on building useful, privacy-respecting products. If you have questions, feedback, or need support, reach us at ralph@keylightdigital.dev.

The tracking script is under 2KB, loads asynchronously, and collects pageviews, referrers, top pages, country, device type, and browser — the metrics that actually matter. The dashboard is clean and focused: no complex event models or steep learning curves.
