DataSpice vs Fathom Analytics
DataSpice is cookieless product analytics for founders and small SaaS teams that brings web traffic, Apple App Store Connect and Stripe revenue into one workspace. Here is how it compares with Fathom Analytics, starting with what Fathom Analytics does better.
Fathom is the other strong cookieless option, and on several axes it is more generous than DataSpice: full API access on every plan, long data retention, and a large number of sites included per plan. If you manage many small sites, Fathom's site allowance alone can decide it, and Fathom has years of track record where DataSpice has none. DataSpice differs on scope: Fathom is web analytics, and does not integrate Stripe revenue or Apple App Store Connect, so the question of which traffic source produced paying customers stays a manual join.

DataSpice and Fathom Analytics, in short
- Is Fathom or DataSpice better for multiple websites?
- Fathom, in most cases. It includes a large number of sites per plan, and if you manage many small sites that allowance alone can decide it. DataSpice carries a website allowance per tier instead.
- Can I export my data from DataSpice like I can from Fathom?
- No. Fathom offers unlimited reports and exports plus API access on every plan. DataSpice has neither today. If a portable copy of your numbers is a requirement, DataSpice does not meet it.
- What does DataSpice do that Fathom does not?
- It brings Apple App Store Connect and Stripe revenue into the same workspace as the web traffic. Fathom is web analytics and offers neither, so the question of which traffic source produced paying customers stays a manual join.
