Analytics for nonprofits

Nonprofits generally have neither the budget nor the staff time for enterprise analytics, and donor trust is too important to risk with tracking that looks like surveillance. Orbit is free for one site, collects no cookies or personal data, and its public share links make it easy to show a board or funder your reach without another line item in the budget.

What makes analytics hard for nonprofits

• Little to no budget for a paid analytics tool, especially one priced for enterprise traffic volumes.
• Donor and visitor privacy matters, and cookie-based tracking sits awkwardly with an organization's own values.
• Boards and funders ask for reach numbers, and building a report takes staff time the org does not have.
• Often a volunteer or part-time staffer manages the website, with no time to learn a complex dashboard.

Where Orbit fits

• Free plan, affordable Starter tierTrack one site for free with 90-day retention; move to Starter (€4.99/mo) only if you need more sites or longer history.
• No cookies, no visitor trackingOrbit doesn't collect personal data or set tracking cookies, which fits an organization's privacy commitments to donors and visitors.
• Public share links for board and funder reportsSend board members or funders a live dashboard link instead of compiling a reach report by hand each quarter.
• Single-screen dashboardReadable without training, useful when the site is managed by a volunteer or part-time staffer rather than a dedicated analyst.
