It shows how AI answer engines talk about your brand, which crawlers read your site, what the visits they send do once they arrive, and which of those visits turn into customers — in one project, from one cookie-free script tag. ## What Kitbase does Most teams buy a web-analytics tool, an event-tracking tool, an AI-visibility tracker, a bot-detection service and a backlink monitor, then spend their time reconciling five dashboards. Kitbase replaces that stack with one product. ### [Web analytics](/web-analytics) Traffic, referrers, UTM campaigns and page performance, without cookies or a consent banner. ### [Event tracking](/event-tracking) Custom events with properties, channels and tags, from a script tag, an SDK or the REST API. ### [Sessions & users](/session-tracking) Every visit grouped into a session; anonymous visitors stitched to known users when you identify them. ### [AI visibility](/ai-visibility) How ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and other answer engines talk about your brand, and who they cite instead. ### [Bot & crawler analytics](/bot-analytics) Which AI crawlers and search bots hit your site, verified against the operator's published ranges. ### [Backlinks](/backlinks) Monitor the links pointing at your site, spot what was lost and reclaim it. Also: a [link marketplace](/link-marketplace), site audits with an AI-readiness score, keyword research, webhooks, workflows, and a set of [free SEO & AEO tools](/tools) anyone can use without an account. ## How it is built ### One platform, one bill Analytics, AI visibility, crawler insight and backlinks live in one project with one dashboard, one set of keys and one API, instead of five vendors stitched together. ### Cookie-free by default The tracking script stores nothing in third-party cookies, identifies visitors anonymously until you say otherwise, and lets you switch collection off feature by feature. ### Built for agents as much as people Every page on this site has a Markdown twin, the API ships a public OpenAPI specification, and the hosted MCP server lets Claude, Cursor or any MCP client query and manage a project directly. ### Open where it matters The SDKs, the CLI and the integrations are published on GitHub and npm, the platform can be self-hosted, and open-source projects get Kitbase free. ## Who it is for Product and growth teams at SaaS companies, e-commerce stores, content sites and marketplaces who want to know how they show up in AI answers and what that traffic does — and developers who would rather script it than click through it.
