Track your visitors without tracking your visitors
Most of your traffic arrives anonymous and leaves silent. The good news: you don't need their identity to understand their intent. Here's how behavior-only tracking works.
The short version
Behavior is the signal. Identity is optional.
You can capture everything that matters — pages, searches, clicks, returns — without a single name or email address.
Every site has a silent majority: visitors who browse, compare, and leave without converting. Traditional analytics treats them as a page-view aggregate. Modern growth work treats them as individual profiles of intent — anonymous, but deeply understood.
The path is: capture behavior → build a per-visitor memory → let an agent act on it. This guide covers each step, with a focus on staying privacy-safe the whole way.
Step 1
Decide what to capture
Start with the signals that predict intent. You don't need to instrument everything on day one:
Page views
Which pages tell you a visitor is serious? Pricing, features, comparisons.
Searches
What visitors type reveals problems they're trying to solve.
CTA clicks
Free trial, demo, add-to-cart — the moments before commitment.
Return sessions
A second visit is a stronger signal than a tenth page view.
Step 2
Capture it with one script
A single script tag captures all of it. No event taxonomy, no SDK wiring across pages, no data layer to maintain.
// in your <head>
<script src="https://your-site.tradly.io/pixel.js" data-site="your-key">
</script>
// page views, searches, and CTA clicks are captured automatically
pixel.track("search", { query: "delivery software" });
Each event is attributed to an anonymous visitor id — a random string, never an email or identity. Memory accumulates per visitor as they browse.
Step 3
Turn events into memory
Raw events are noise. Memory is a profile: this visitor returned twice, searched for delivery software, and reached pricing but never started a trial.

intent score
This is the difference between analytics and memory. Analytics says "pricing had 800 views." Memory says "here's one visitor who is close to buying."
Step 4
Let an agent act on it
The payoff is automation. With memory exposed through MCP, an agent can answer questions and take action:
Agent question
Who should get a recovery email right now?
Memory answer
42 high-intent visitors added a plan to cart and never started checkout.
Agent action
create_recovery_segment({ event: "add_to_cart" })
Why this stays private
Behavior without identity
Nothing here requires cookies, cross-site IDs, or personal data. Each visitor is an anonymous identifier scoped to your site. You learn what they do, never who they are. If a visitor later identifies themselves (like filling a form), you can connect memory to a known profile — but you never need it to start.
