Fathom Analytics

Simple privacy-first analytics.

What it is

Fathom Analytics is privacy-first web analytics with no cookies and EU data isolation options. No cookies means no consent banner in many jurisdictions, and the whole report fits on one page. The flip side is deliberately limited depth: no user-level funnels or cohort analysis, because it does not keep that data.

Fathom Analytics pricing

Fathom Analytics does not publish a plan ladder we could verify. Pricing not verified.

Prices read from the vendor's own pricing page on 2026-09-09. Vendors change plans without notice — check the source before you budget.

Key features

  • Cookieless tracking

    Measures traffic without cookies or personal identifiers.

  • Single-page dashboard

    Presents the whole report on one screen rather than a console.

  • EU data isolation

    Offers processing routed through EU-owned infrastructure.

Strengths and trade-offs

What works well

  • No cookies, simplifying consent
  • Fast, lightweight script
  • Simple dashboard anyone can read

Where it falls short

  • Fewer features than full analytics platforms
  • No free tier
  • No user-level journeys by design

Who it is for

Site owners who want honest numbers without a consent banner.

Pick it or skip it

Pick Fathom Analytics if

  • Site owners who want privacy-first analytics with no cookie banner: pricing starts at $15/month for up to 100,000 monthly page views and every plan includes 50 sites
  • Agencies and multi-site operators — 50 sites are included at every tier and extra sites come in packs of 50 for $10/month
  • Anyone who wants predictable cost as traffic grows: the ladder is published in full, from $15 at 100K page views to $470 at 25M, with custom pricing above that

Skip it if

  • You need a free tier — Fathom states plainly that it does not offer one, because subscription fees are what pay for the product instead of selling data
  • You send a lot of custom events: events count towards your monthly page view allowance, so they push you up the pricing ladder
  • You want a sales call or a live demo before buying; Fathom does not offer either, only a 7-day trial and a walkthrough

Our verdict

Directly comparable with Plausible; pick on price and data residency, since capability is close.
