How long does it take to set up Xplainr?

Most teams are up and running in under 5 minutes. Simply connect your marketing channels using OAuth (no API keys needed), and you'll see your first AI-generated insight immediately. There's no complex configuration or data mapping required.

Absolutely. We use bank-level 256-bit AES encryption for all data in transit and at rest. We never store your raw marketing data, only the aggregated metrics needed to generate insights. Our platform is built with enterprise-grade security practices, and we never sell or share your data.

Which marketing platforms do you integrate with?

We currently support Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Google Search Console, Meta Ads (Facebook & Instagram), and LinkedIn Ads. All integrations use secure OAuth authentication, so you never have to share passwords or API keys.

Can I try Xplainr before committing?

Yes! Start with our Free tier to connect one domain and get 5 AI insights per month, no credit card required.

What if Xplainr doesn't work for me?

No problem - all paid plans come with a 14-day free trial, and you can cancel anytime with one click. If you're not seeing value within the first two weeks, you won't be charged. We're confident you'll see ROI, but there's zero risk to try.

How is Xplainr different from Google Analytics or Looker Studio?

Those tools show charts and expect you to figure them out. Xplainr tells you what happened in plain English, explains why it happened, and recommends what to do next. Instead of building dashboards and manually hunting for patterns, you get AI-generated insights that explain anomalies, identify opportunities, and prioritize your daily actions.

Can my whole marketing team use Xplainr?

Yes! Starter plans include 3 team members, Pro plans include 10, and Enterprise plans have unlimited seats. Team members can share domains, assign action items from insights, and collaborate on priorities - all with role-based permissions.

Do I need technical skills to use Xplainr?

Not at all. Xplainr is built for marketing managers, not data scientists. You can ask Aria (our AI assistant) questions in plain English like 'Why did my conversion rate drop yesterday?' and get clear, actionable answers without writing any queries.

Feature

AI Anomaly Detection

TL;DR: Xplainr monitors all your connected marketing channels 24/7 and alerts you within minutes when something unusual happens - a CPC spike, conversion drop, or budget drain - with AI-generated explanations and recommended actions.

Marketing data doesn't wait for your next reporting cycle. A Google Ads campaign can burn through budget in hours. A landing page can break silently. A competitor can bid aggressively on your brand terms overnight. Without real-time monitoring, these issues compound. Xplainr's AI anomaly detection catches problems before they become costly.

Why This Matters

Most marketers check their dashboards once a day - if that. By the time they notice a problem, they've already lost hours or days of budget and conversions. Manual monitoring doesn't scale across multiple channels, campaigns, and metrics. You need an always-on system that understands what 'normal' looks like for your specific data.

Key Capabilities

Cross-Channel Monitoring

Monitors Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, GA4, and more - all from a single system.

Adaptive Baselines

AI learns your seasonal patterns, day-of-week cycles, and campaign cadence to reduce false positives.

Root Cause Analysis

When an anomaly is detected, AI explains probable causes - not just that something changed.

Severity Classification

Anomalies are ranked by business impact - budget risk, revenue impact, and urgency level.

Smart Notifications

Get alerts via email, Slack, or in-app - configured by severity and metric type.

Correlated Anomalies

AI identifies when anomalies across platforms are related (e.g., a CPC spike causing a ROAS drop).

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly does Xplainr detect anomalies?

Xplainr monitors data continuously. Most anomalies are detected within minutes of the data becoming available from the source platform (varies by platform API update frequency).

Can I customize what counts as an anomaly?

Yes. While AI handles detection automatically, you can adjust sensitivity levels, exclude specific metrics, and set custom alerting rules for your team.

How does it reduce false positives?

Xplainr's AI learns your data's normal patterns - seasonal cycles, day-of-week variations, campaign launches. This adaptive baseline dramatically reduces false alerts compared to static thresholds.

What happens when an anomaly is detected?

You get a notification with: what changed, how significant the deviation is, probable causes, correlated changes across other metrics, and recommended actions.
