Piwik PRO
Connect Piwik PRO Analytics to see exactly how much traffic AI platforms send to your site, what those privacy-first tracked visitors do, and whether they convert.
Overview
What you get with the Piwik PRO integration
Finseo connects to your Piwik PRO Analytics account via the API and surfaces the AI referral traffic that generic source labels hide. You see ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot as distinct sources, which pages they land on, what they do, and which goals and revenue they drive. All while keeping the privacy-first, consent-friendly setup that Piwik PRO is known for, with no changes to your tracking or cookie configuration.
Use cases
What you can do with Piwik PRO and Finseo
Real ways Piwik PRO customers use Finseo to track and grow AI search revenue.
- 01

- 03

- 04

Why it matters
Why Piwik PRO customers need AI visibility tracking
AI search now drives more referral traffic to many websites than Bing, Yahoo, or Twitter combined, yet analytics platforms misclassify most AI referrals under direct or unassigned. Piwik PRO is the analytics platform of choice for privacy-conscious and regulated organizations, but it still cannot separate ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude on its own. Finseo unmasks these sources so you can measure ROI and prove AEO impact, without giving up the compliance guarantees that Piwik PRO provides.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Piwik PRO
Answers to the most common questions about the Piwik PRO integration.
Finseo applies a continuously updated set of referrer patterns, user agent signatures, and traffic fingerprints to identify visitors from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, and other AI engines. The detection logic is updated weekly as AI platforms change how they pass referral data.
No. Finseo reads your existing Piwik PRO Analytics data via the official API. You do not need to add tracking scripts, modify your tag manager, or change your consent and cookie configuration. The integration is fully read only and never modifies your Piwik PRO account.
Yes. Finseo only reads the aggregated analytics data that Piwik PRO already collects under your consent configuration. It does not bypass consent, does not add cookies, and does not access personal data, so your GDPR and privacy posture is unchanged.
Yes. Finseo reads your Piwik PRO goals and ecommerce data, then breaks them down by AI source. You see sign-ups from ChatGPT, demo requests from Perplexity, and revenue from each AI engine separately, using your existing Piwik PRO goal setup.
Yes. Both Piwik PRO Cloud and the self-hosted On-Premises edition expose the Analytics API. As long as Finseo can reach your API endpoint with valid read credentials, the connection works the same way.
Finseo backfills the last 90 days of Piwik PRO data on initial connection. After that, data updates daily. Historical AI source attribution is recomputed using the latest detection patterns, so retroactive accuracy improves over time.
Yes. Each Finseo project can connect one Piwik PRO app. If you manage multiple sites or brands, create a separate Finseo project per site and connect a different Piwik PRO app to each. There is no limit on the number of projects.
No. Finseo only reads aggregated Piwik PRO metrics (sessions, goals, revenue by source). Personal data, IP addresses, and individual session details are never accessed. All data is stored encrypted and is only visible to your Finseo project members.
