Hi @nfbarreto! This is expected. The difference comes from the sessions that are active during the daily reset. So if I visit the site 5 minutes before the reset at midnight and my session continues until 5 minutes past the reset, my session will count as one unique visitor on each of the two days while it will count only as 1 unique visitor in the monthly view. |

Hi,
I was doing some tests with Plausible and noticed that the aggregated unique visitors metric on top of the dashboard doesn't equal the sum of unique users per day. I did this in the demo dashboard for the month of April 2023.
In the documentation, I saw that distinct users only exist on a daily basis.
Can someone please tell me where this difference is coming from? 126687 (aggregated metric for the entire month) vs 140075 (summing April daily users).
Thank you!
