Developers need to understand usage patterns but often hesitate to implement full analytics due to privacy concerns.

A tool that aggregates just enough data to show trends—like feature adoption or error rates—without capturing PII would fill this gap.

Sell to dev teams and indie hackers who prioritize privacy but still need metrics.

Start with a simple API that logs anonymous events and shows basic charts.

Risk: Larger analytics platforms might add 'privacy mode' features.
