    DTC E-Commerce Analytics

    TL;DR: Xplainr gives DTC brands unified ROAS across all channels, AI-powered creative intelligence, and anomaly detection that catches wasted spend within hours - replacing 5+ siloed dashboards with one AI-native platform.

    DTC e-commerce brands typically run campaigns across 4–6 platforms simultaneously. Each platform reports conversions differently, leading to inflated ROAS numbers and poor budget decisions. Xplainr creates a single source of truth that reconciles data across every channel.

    Why This Matters

    The average DTC brand discovers 15–25% of attributed conversions are double-counted across platforms. Without cross-channel unification, teams overinvest in underperforming channels and miss optimization opportunities hiding in siloed data.

    Key Capabilities

    Cross-Channel ROAS Tracking

    See true ROAS across Meta, Google Shopping, TikTok, and influencer campaigns in one view - no spreadsheets needed.

    Creative Performance Intelligence

    AI identifies which creatives drive conversions vs. which just drive clicks, across every platform simultaneously.

    Customer Acquisition Cost Modeling

    Track blended CAC and channel-level CAC with automatic cohort analysis to understand true customer value.

    Budget Allocation Optimizer

    Aria recommends real-time budget shifts between channels based on marginal ROAS, not just historical averages.
