What is Jellystat?

Jellystat is a free and open-source statistics app for Jellyfin, with Emby support. It provides session monitoring and logging, statistics for all libraries and users, watch history, user overview and activity, automatic library syncing and backup and restore of its data. Upstream notes the project is still in development.

On xCloud it runs as the Jellystat container plus a private PostgreSQL 18.1 container, with the database and backup files on two persistent volumes, behind HTTPS. You bring your own Jellyfin or Emby server and API key.

From Sign-Up to a Live Stats Dashboard In Just 3 Easy Steps

A Jellystat stack normally means an app container, a PostgreSQL database, a generated secret, volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first play is logged. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick Jellystat from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server, and set the timezone (default Etc/UTC) — the only install field.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We bring up the Jellystat image and a private PostgreSQL 18.1 database kept off the public internet, mount the jellystat_postgres and jellystat_backup_data volumes, generate the database password and JWT secret, and publish it over HTTPS on your domain.

  3. Step 03

    Connect Your Media Server

    After the first boot (about a minute), open your HTTPS Jellystat URL, register the first account, then enter your Jellyfin or Emby URL and API key straight away to finish setup.

Everything Jellystat Does, On Your Own Server

Jellystat runs in full here: a statistics dashboard for your own media server, backed by a database you own.

  • Session Monitoring And Logging

    Jellystat monitors sessions on your media server and logs them, so playback is recorded as it happens.

  • Watch History

    A history of what was played, kept in the PostgreSQL database rather than lost when a session ends.

  • Library And User Statistics

    Statistics for all libraries and users, with a user overview and activity for each person on the server.

  • Backup And Restore

    Jellystat can back up and restore its own data; backup files live on the jellystat_backup_data volume.

  • Auto-Synced Library Items

    Library items are synced automatically from your media server, so the statistics follow what is in your libraries.

  • Sign-In Required After Setup

    Once the first account and server connection exist, unauthenticated API calls and wrong passwords were rejected in testing.

Everything You Need To Run Your Media Statistics 24/7

Managed hosting for Jellystat, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • Jellystat 1.1.12 deployed instantly
  • Images pinned by immutable digest
  • Database password and JWT secret generated
  • Private PostgreSQL, no published port
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • Server security updates included
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With Jellystat

  • See who is actually watching

    Use the user overview and activity pages to see which accounts on a shared server are active and what they play.

  • Keep a playback record

    Keep watch history in your own database so a session that ended last week is still on record.

  • Understand your libraries

    Look at statistics for every library to see where the activity on your media server goes.

  • Run Emby the same way

    Point Jellystat at an Emby server instead of Jellyfin and get the same history and statistics.

Jellystat vs Alternatives

Tautulli
Tautulli is the equivalent monitoring tool for Plex; Jellystat is built for Jellyfin and Emby servers instead.
Your media server's own dashboard
The server shows what is happening now; Jellystat adds a separate, queryable history and per-user and per-library statistics in its own database.
Hosted analytics services
A third-party service means sending your viewing data elsewhere; Jellystat keeps it in a PostgreSQL database on your own server.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

How do I sign in?

Register the first account in the setup wizard, then connect your media server; sign-in is required afterwards.

Why should I finish setup right away?

Until your Jellyfin connection is configured, the first-run create-user endpoint is unauthenticated (upstream behaviour). After setup it returns 403. Do not share the URL before setup is complete.

Does the template install Jellyfin or Emby?

No. Jellystat connects to a Jellyfin or Emby server you already run, using its URL and an API key you enter in the app.

What runs alongside Jellystat?

A private PostgreSQL 18.1 container with no published port. Nothing else is exposed.

What should I back up?

The jellystat_postgres and jellystat_backup_data volumes, together, and restore them with the same application version. Keep the generated database password private.

What survives a restart?

The Postgres data, backup files, API keys and logins survived an xCloud Restart in testing, because they sit on persistent named volumes.

Can I restore a large backup file?

Backup restores larger than 100 MB need a higher nginx upload limit, or the files placed in the backup volume.

Should I set JF_HOST or JF_API_KEY?

Not unless you want them to override the in-app settings on every restart. The media-server URL and API key are entered in the app, not in install fields.

Why do malformed requests show an error page with a stack trace?

That is upstream's default Express error handling, not something this template adds.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update Jellystat?

No. The template pins Jellystat 1.1.12 and PostgreSQL 18.1 by immutable digest; new installations use the pinned release, existing sites are not automatically upgraded. Back up first, read the upstream release notes, then bump the readable tag and digest together on your own schedule. Server-level backups and snapshots are available on every Cloud VPS.

What are the server requirements, and why does this page sell 6 GB?

The template's baseline asks for 1 CPU core, 256 MB of RAM and 10 GB of disk; measured use in QA was about 136 MB for the app and database together. This page sells the 6 GB tier as the entry rung, with real headroom above that baseline.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Jellystat?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the Jellystat project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source Jellystat project.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
