PluginTracker reveals what the WordPress plugin repository doesn’t: your real active install count. It also provides real user-environment telemetry, including PHP and WP versions, active plugins and themes, deactivation reasons, server details, and more. Benchmark against competitors, analyze reviews and support tickets, and make smarter product decisions with real data instead of guesswork.
Hey Hunters 👋
Quick story before the pitch.
I've been building WordPress plugins for over 16 years, and the whole time, my plugins have been keeping secrets from me.
How many people actually use them? WordPress.org says "10,000+". Sounds nice. But is that 10,000 or 19,999? That's almost double, and I had no way of knowing.
And even if I knew the exact number, I still couldn't answer the questions that actually matter. What PHP version are my users running? Which WordPress version? What other plugins sit alongside mine? Which server environments should I test against?
I was making product decisions in the dark.
So I built PluginTracker to turn the lights on.
It gives plugin makers the real picture behind their plugins:
📊 Real active installs: Your (almost) exact count and full daily trend. No more guessing between 10,000 and 19,999.
🔬 Advanced Telemetry: See the environments your users actually run: PHP versions, WordPress versions, active plugins, active themes, server info, multisite usage, and locale. Drop a small snippet into your plugin, and the data starts flowing.
📈 Growth tracking: Downloads, ratings, and review trends over time. Spot what's working and what's not.
🏆 Competitor benchmarking: Track any rival plugin's installs, ratings, and reviews right next to yours.
🔔 Instant alerts: Know the second a new review lands or your installs move.
🤖 AI Review and Ticket Assistant: Draft replies to reviews and support tickets in seconds.
We run all of our own plugins on PluginTracker now, and it has completely changed how we make decisions. We know exactly which PHP versions to support. We see which plugins coexist with ours. We catch trends before they become problems.
We're just getting started. There's a lot more coming to the telemetry side, and we're building features we've never seen in any tool for plugin developers.
You can start for free for 14 days, no card needed. If you build WordPress plugins, I'd love to hear how you track your real reach today and what you'd want a tool like this to do. I'm around all day. 🙏
