Frequently asked questions

How can AI be used for attribution?

AI can analyze all touchpoints in the customer journey and automatically distribute credit between them. It can account for complex interactions and automatically calculate attribution.

What do ML models use to attribute?

ML models use data from every customer interaction, including website visits, email opens, social media engagement, and offline purchases, to determine the contribution of each touchpoint.

Which attribution model is best?

The best model depends on your goals and the complexity of the journey. Multi-touch or ML-based models are typically more accurate than first-touch or last-touch. AI can recommend the optimal model for your data.
