Not to replace marketers, but to make our work more efficient, creative and a little more fun.

The way marketers use data is shifting fast, mainly because of privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA. Companies are under pressure to find new ways to analyze performance, target audiences and share data — without crossing legal or ethical lines. That’s where data clean rooms (DCR) come in. They’re not a cure-all, but they’re becoming a key part of the privacy-safe data collaboration and measurement toolkit.

Marketers are waking up to the sea changes in consumer behavior triggered by the emergence of “zero-click” AI search. Some are moving faster than others, though. B2B advertisers and brands that use a direct to consumer (DTC) sales model — and which often rely on organic and paid search as a means of dragging customers to the digital till — are taking preventative action now, rather than waiting for ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google’s AI Overviews to put a dent in their marketing strategy.

Most marketing measurement models operate on a simple assumption: effects are additive. Campaign A drives 100 leads, Campaign B drives 200, so the total impact is 300.
