Our company is a future-proof solution for marketing attribution & spend/outcome decisioning in the cookie-less era, driving benefits for global category leaders with DTC, retail, wholesale, and subscription footprints.

We enable brands to optimize spend outcomes resulting in significant P&L benefit. As audience identification decays and media costs increase, our company measures the diminishing returns of marketing spend, identifies ineffective dollars within channels/tactics/campaigns as they scale, and enables marketers to drive smarter business decisions with their next dollar-in.

The best thing about our company is that brands typically need only 15-30 hours LOE (or less if fully on e-comm platforms) to achieve data readiness (no site-tags). From data-readiness, standup should be less than 3 weeks so that performance marketers recognize value quickly. Our brands often see full annual program payoff within the first few months, making ramp-to-benefit a premium feature.
