What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.8

It is made by a German company.

The report card
Best for privacy-first analytics for apps
TelemetryDeck is cookieless analytics for mobile, desktop and web apps, with 50,000 events a month free. The free plan has no real-time data, and prices are in euros with only the first paid tier readable.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Indie is €9 a month for 750,000 events, inside the cheaper quarter of analytics tools. |
| Free plan and trial | B | A free plan with 50,000 events, 3 apps and 3 months of retention, which a small app could live on. |
| Features | B | On-device anonymization, a query editor, funnels, retention and SDKs with ingest and query APIs cover the whole job of app analytics. |
| Ease of use | C | SDKs to add to your app code, and no store rating on record. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web dashboard with SDKs for apps, and links to RevenueCat, Superwall and Google Tag Manager. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who TelemetryDeck is for
- Fits if you ship an app and want analytics without tracking users
- Works for indie developers under 50,000 events a month
Who it is not for
- Tight if you need real-time data on free, as events process between hourly and daily
- Watch out: prices are in euros and only the Indie step is readable, with higher tiers up to 15,000,000 events
- Watch out: annual billing is pre-selected, and monthly plans are not refunded
- Watch out: the pricing page text would not load here, so the prices are from the listing
Good to know
Good for

Keep it
Nothing TelemetryDeck does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 5 things listed below take a company.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 85 of the 100 other website and product analytics tools we grade. It costs $120.66 a year.
What you could not
- A tracking script and a database that counts every visit.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- It plugs into other products, RevenueCat, Superwall and Google Tag Manager among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. TelemetryDeck’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
