Built by a plugin developer, for plugin developers

Why it exists

PluginAnalytics is made by Skilled, who writes Minecraft plugins, including The Sift on SpigotMC. Every release raised the same questions: how many of the people who open the listing install the plugin? Do servers keep it after a week? Which features does anyone use? Which error hit hundreds of servers after the last update? bStats answered how many servers run it. Nothing answered the rest, so PluginAnalytics was built to, and The Sift has used it from the start.

What we believe

• One line of code. If measuring a plugin takes an afternoon, nobody does it. Everything useful is collected automatically, from PluginAnalytics.start(this, key).
• Server owners come first. No player names, UUIDs, IP addresses or chat, ever. Players are a salted hash that differs on every server. One setting turns it off for every plugin. Exactly what is sent.
• Never hurt the server. Nothing runs on the main thread, nothing blocks, and if our service is down the plugin doesn't notice.
• Honest pricing. Free for your first plugin, with public prices for the rest. Pricing.
