d8a is an open-source, warehouse-native analytics platform compatible with GA4 and Matomo. Self-host it free or use the EU-hosted cloud tier.
d8a is an open-source, warehouse-native analytics platform that ingests events using GA4 and Matomo tracking protocols while writing the resulting data into a customer-controlled warehouse such as ClickHouse or BigQuery, rather than a vendor-owned dashboard.
The project is MIT-licensed and available as a free EU-hosted cloud tier or a fully self-hosted deployment, aimed at teams that want data ownership and compliance-friendly infrastructure alongside familiar GA4/Matomo-style tracking.
d8a supports drop-in compatibility with existing GA4 and Matomo tracking snippets, server-side session computation, and export to ClickHouse, BigQuery, or CSV/Parquet on S3, GCS, or local storage, all under a documented reporting-ready schema.
Deployment options range from Kubernetes and on-premises installs to air-gapped networks, supporting compliance-sensitive sectors such as healthcare, government, and financial services, alongside an EU-hosted AI agent for natural-language analysis over the warehouse data.
d8a has no tiered subscription pricing. The self-hosted, MIT-licensed software is free to run on any infrastructure, and the EU-hosted cloud version at app.d8a.tech is offered free of charge with no credit card required.
No public enterprise or paid support tier is listed on the marketing site; teams needing dedicated support or contractual SLAs would need to contact the d8a team directly.
Yes. The self-hosted software is MIT-licensed and free, and d8a also offers a free EU-hosted cloud tier at app.d8a.tech.
It can. d8a accepts GA4 Measurement Protocol events, so teams can redirect existing GA4 tracking into d8a's pipeline while keeping data outside Google's infrastructure.
ClickHouse and Google BigQuery as managed sinks, plus CSV/Parquet export to S3, Google Cloud Storage, or local storage.
The project markets self-hosted and air-gapped deployment options aimed at HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP, and SOX use cases, though organizations should independently verify compliance for their specific requirements.
d8a is developed as an open-source project on GitHub (d8a-tech/d8a), backed by a UK-registered company, D8A TECH UK LTD, with a community Discord for support.
d8a focuses on ingestion and warehouse storage; visualization is typically handled by connecting BI tools such as Looker or Metabase to the resulting warehouse tables.
