About Matomo
Matomo bets on AI-traffic measurement as its differentiator while modernizing the UI for upmarket buyers.
Matomo is on a near-monthly minor-release cadence threading three concurrent themes: AI-traffic instrumentation, visual modernization (dark mode and theme refresh in 5.10.0), and privacy-compliance shortcuts aimed at EU operators. Patch releases land between minors with security and archiving fixes, and the team still ships occasional Matomo 4 backports for legacy customers.
