Clacky vs Plausible

Plausible is a dedicated, open-source website analytics service you use in the browser. Clacky’s Dashboard gives you cookie-free analytics too, inside a Mac app that also records, captions, schedules your posts and plays your clicks.

Clacky is the friendly companion for making things on your Mac. Five places in one app: click, scroll and keyboard sounds with a ripple on every click, a Studio that records, captions and cuts, Ask Boop, a Dashboard with cookie-free website analytics and a calendar for your posts, and Clackyland, a little harbour town. One plan with every feature. 7 days free, cancel anytime.

Why Clacky wins

  • Clicks you can hear and see

    37 click sounds with their own press and release, 8 scroll styles, 29 keyboard sounds, plus double-click, long press and drag, and a ripple under the cursor on every click. Keyboard sounds never record which keys are typed.

  • A recorder that keeps your clicks

    Record the whole screen, one window or an area, with your Mac’s sound, your clicks and ripples right in the video. Pause when you need to, stop from the notch. Recordings stay on your Mac.

  • Captions and quick edits

    Captions are made on your Mac, word by word. Split, speed up, trim and crop in the clips lane, then make it 9:16 with the captions out of the way.

  • Screenshots, done right

    A screenshot editor, Scrolling Capture for whole pages, and Grab Text to copy text from anything on your screen.

  • Your website and your posts

    Cookie-free analytics for your websites (visitors, sources and sales) and a calendar to plan and schedule posts to your social accounts, right next to your work.

  • Ask Boop, and let your AI help

    Ask Boop how to do anything with ⌘K. Connect Claude, Claude Code, Cursor or Codex over MCP and your AI can record, grab text and schedule posts. It’s off until you turn it on.

  • Clackyland

    Using Clacky bakes cookies. Spend them in a little harbour town, unlock achievements, open the daily treat and visit your friends. The fun part, never in your way.

  • One plan, every feature

    Every feature is on every plan; the price only grows with your website traffic. 7 days free, the app in 14 languages, on 2 Macs, and a real person answers your email.
