Marketing Reporting Takes Too Long
TL;DR: AI-powered reporting automation reduces weekly reporting time from 8-12 hours to under 30 minutes while adding AI-generated narratives that improve stakeholder understanding by 40%.
Every hour spent building reports is an hour not spent optimizing campaigns. Marketing teams spend 60% of their time on data collection and reporting, leaving only 40% for strategy. AI flips that ratio.
Common Concerns - Answered
“Our reports need to be customized - automation won't work”
Xplainr reports are fully customizable. AI generates data, narratives, and recommendations - you control format, branding, and metrics. Custom doesn't mean manual.
