Native macOS · for Google Analytics 4
Your GA4 properties,
Your GA4 properties,
on your desktop.
Cohort Insights is a fast, native macOS app that puts your Google Analytics dashboards, live KPIs, and offline-cached metrics right where you work — main window, menu bar, and desktop widget.
Three surfaces
Wherever you happen to be looking.
The same GA4 data, surfaced three ways so you never have to context-switch out of your work just to check how a campaign's doing.
Menu bar extra
Always there in the menu bar. One click shows realtime users, today's sessions, new vs returning, and your top traffic channel — without opening the app.
Desktop widget
Small, medium, and large WidgetKit sizes on your desktop or in Notification Center. Cached so it stays useful even between refreshes — and refreshes itself in the background.
Every metric that matters Eight focused tabs.
Eight focused tabs.
No tab-switch dance in the GA web UI.
Cohort Insights pulls from the GA4 Data API and arranges every metric worth caring about into clean, fast-loading tabs. Lazy-loaded so you only burn quota for what you're actually looking at.
Overview
Active users, sessions, engagement rate, and average session length — at a glance with a daily trend chart.
Acquisition
Sessions by channel, top sources and mediums, campaigns, and first-touch channel for new users.
Engagement
Engaged sessions, bounce rate, events per session, total events, and engagement time — plus your top events.
Content
Top pages with titles, landing-page performance with engagement rate, and the events users fire most.
Audience
New vs returning split with DAU/MAU, DAU/WAU, and WAU/MAU stickiness ratios.
Tech
Breakdown by country, city, device category, operating system, and browser.
Commerce
Revenue, transactions, average order value, and top items — auto-hidden for properties without commerce data.
Realtime
Live active users in the last 30 minutes, by country and device, plus events firing right now.
No tracking. None.
Cohort Insights is an analytics client with zero analytics of its own. We don't track you. We don't send telemetry. We don't see your GA4 data — it goes straight from Google to your Mac.
- No usage analytics, no crash reporting, no fingerprinting.
- Your OAuth tokens live in the macOS Keychain — not a server.
- All Google requests go directly from your machine, signed with your access token.
- Open privacy nutrition label on the Mac App Store.
Built like a native Mac app should be.
- SwiftUI & Swift Concurrency. No Catalyst, no Electron, no AppKit shims where SwiftUI suffices.
- OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. Hand-rolled — no Google sign-in SDK pulled in.
- App-sandboxed, hardened runtime. Network-client only. No file access beyond what you pick.
- Quota-aware caching. Widget refreshes from a shared App Group cache, throttled to keep your GA4 quota intact.
- Universal binary. Apple Silicon and Intel, on macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
