Marketing data is everywhere, but it’s rarely consistent. Marketers need to normalise data into a unified data model to uncover impactful insights. However, this is often the slowest manual, error-prone step of the process. With an out-of-the-box marketing data model, you can organise your data into a clear and consistent taxonomy. Prepare and enrich your data with naming convention patterns, data classification, and automated maintenance alerts, so you can make decisions with understandable and trusted data.

Create media plans, ingest media buys, and achieve greater ROI with a suite of paid media tools. AI uses historic performance data to suggest improvements to media plans, or even run scenario simulations, so you can better allocate your budget and predict performance.
