Plausible Analytics offers simple spike detection. To use it you must set a rudimentary value, such as 100 views per day and Plausible will notify you if your site goes over this value. This doesn’t factor in the nature of website users, there are usually day-to-day fluctuations such as weekends vs weekdays, seasonal changes like holiday periods, and many website which have trends such as growing traffic. Our anomaly detection uses a more sophisticated and dynamic system. Machine learning understands the normal patterns in your data, creating a normal ‘threshold’ based on your past data rather than a rudimentary value, so it is always changing and factoring in the instability of website usage. An alert will only be fired when a metric goes outside the normal threshold, whether for example its 100 on a weekend or 50 on a weekday or 200 on a busy holiday period.
