Overview
Plausible is a cookie-free analytics tool that needs no consent banner, and it reports referrals from ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude as a first-class feature. That's the closest thing to a direct read on whether your GEO work brings visits, not just citations. The Stats API sits on the Business plan, so budget for that tier if automation is the point.
