These solve different halves of the same problem. Fathom collects the traffic data, Looker Studio turns whatever data you already have into a shareable dashboard.
These two tools are not really competing for the same job. One answers "how much traffic did I get and where from," cookie-free. The other answers "what did users actually do inside my product before they converted or churned."
One is a $15/month cookieless analytics tool you install with a single script tag. The other is a sales-led media mix modeling platform built for DTC brands spending $50k or more a month on paid media.

Both drop cookies and consent banners entirely. The real difference shows up in currency, free-tier availability, and whether white-label delivery matters to you.
Fathom tells you how many people visited your site for $15 a month. Tableau builds governed, drag-and-drop dashboards on any data source for $75 a seat. They barely compete.
