Clarity is built by Microsoft, one of the largest technology companies in the world. Microsoft processes vast amounts of anonymous user behavior data to gain insights and improve machine learning models that power many of its products and services. Clarity is one of the ways Microsoft collects this important data, and it's also one of the reasons why we offer it for free.

Clarity supports integration with mobile applications, providing support for native Android, React Native on Android, Cordova, and Ionic, with more platforms to be supported in the future. In addition, the Clarity extension allows you to view heatmaps directly on live websites and watch the latest recordings for any page you are browsing, making analysis easier than ever.

Clarity helps aggregate user behavior and discover trends so we can helpretailers, content publishers, small business owners, and others aggregate user behavior, identify trends, and together build a better website experience for users.

Clarity will always be a free service. You will never encounter traffic limits or be forced to upgrade to a paid version, and we will never share your data with third parties.
