### Ghost's Native Analytics

Ghost has partnered with [Tinybird](https://tbrd.co/ghost) to bring real-time web analytics directly into Ghost.

Through this deep integration, detailed, cookie-free web analytics are available directly in Ghost Admin — powered by Tinybird, the analytics backend trusted by software developers to work at any scale.

Unlike other third-party tools, Ghost’s [native analytics](/content/help/native-analytics/index.html) is fully integrated with everything you publish, giving you a complete picture of your engagement in real time — from how many people are visiting your site to which content is resonating most with your audience — all from the same place you publish every day.

### Ghost(Pro)

If you’re on Ghost(Pro), web analytics are available automatically by default, no setup required — and can be turned off anytime from **Settings → Analytics** in Ghost Admin.

### Self-hosting

To use native web analytics in a self-hosted environment, your site must be running Ghost 6.0 or higher using the **Docker Preview** installation method, with an active Tinybird account configured.

To get started, follow the Tinybird setup instructions in the [Docker Preview setup guide](https://docs.ghost.org/install/docker#tinybird-integration).
