Score: 4.3/10 (Innovation: 3, Technical: 4, Documentation: 6, Utility: 4)

Boatswain is a macOS menu bar app that displays live visitor counts and dashboard stats from Fathom Analytics, inspired by a similar app for Plausible. It provides a convenient way to monitor analytics without opening a browser, but is a straightforward wrapper around an existing API with no novel technical approach. Its utility is limited to Fathom Analytics users on macOS.

Target audience: backend devs
