  title: Rybbit Analytics Sessions API
  description: Rybbit is an open-source, privacy-friendly web and product analytics platform. This specification covers the public event ingestion endpoint (POST /api/track) used by the tracking script and server-side integrations, and the Bearer-key-authenticated Stats API (beta) for querying sites, sessions, users, retention, and events. The cloud base URL is https://app.rybbit.io; self-hosted instances expose the same paths on their own domain.
