AI Analyst — Early Access

Launched the Crux AI Analyst, a Slack-native assistant that answers natural language questions about your store data and delivers automated daily and weekly performance reports directly in your Slack workspace.Ask questions in plain English. The analyst translates your questions into BigQuery SQL, runs them against your data warehouse, and returns a clear, formatted answer. No dashboards to navigate, no exports to pull, no waiting for a report.Example questions it can answer:
  • “What were our top 5 products by revenue last month?”
  • “How did new customer acquisition change week on week?”
  • “Which channel had the highest AOV in March?”
  • “What’s our discount rate trend over the last 8 weeks?”
Automated daily reports delivered each morning covering:
  • Total and new vs. repeat revenue
  • Order volume and AOV (overall, new, and repeat)
  • New user and session volume
  • Discount rate, with week-on-week comparisons throughout
Automated weekly reports covering:
  • Revenue, orders, AOV and new customer mix for the full week vs. prior week
  • Product category revenue breakdown
  • Discount rate trends
Works in shared Slack Connect channels, so your team gets reports directly in the channels you already use without needing to add another tool.The AI Analyst is currently in early access with select clients. Get in touch to join the waitlist.

Multi-Touch Attribution Framework

Launched a full GA4 raw events attribution pipeline that combines five data sources into a single waterfall, recovering orders that standard UTM tracking misses entirely. Read the full attribution overview and how it works.How it works:
  • GA4 raw events are synced directly into BigQuery, bypassing GA4’s interface sampling. First-click attribution is identified across the full purchase cycle, with no time-bound cutoff for long purchase windows.
  • Discount codes mapped to channels, campaigns and ad groups via a Google Sheet you control, correctly attributing influencer, referral, affiliate and offline-driven orders.
  • Shopify customer journey provides a fallback using Shopify’s independent last non-direct touchpoint tracking.
  • Post-purchase surveys (Fairing, Kno, Triple Whale) capture offline touchpoints such as word of mouth, podcast mentions and TV ads.
  • Order note attributes from affiliate and influencer platforms (Awin, Social Snowball, Saral, Superfiliate) serve as the final recovery layer.
Both first-click and last-click attribution are captured for every order. First-click is the default across all dashboards, reflecting the full acquisition journey. Last-click is available for CRM channels and visibility.Channel mapping rules live in a connected Google Sheet, allowing you to update attribution logic, add new discount code mappings, or change channel groupings without any code changes. Rules are priority-ordered and case-insensitive.This typically captures 90%+ of influencer-driven orders compared to 15-25% with UTM tracking alone, and attributes around 31% more revenue than standard last-click UTM reporting.

Meta Ad Fatigue Monitoring

Added a new health metric for detecting creative fatigue across Meta ad accounts, using survival curve analysis combined with Little’s Law replacement rate modelling.
  • Ad fatigue status consolidated per ad, flagging ads approaching or past their performance shelf-life
  • Healthy ad gap metric added to the Business Health dashboard, showing how many new ads are needed to maintain current performance levels
  • Daily new ads and ad winners tracked to surface whether your creative pipeline is keeping pace with fatigue rates
  • Low-efficiency threshold applied to separate ads that have faded from those that never performed
See the Meta Performance dashboard for ad-level fatigue data.

Repurchase Rate

Added repurchase rate to the retention metrics suite, tracking the share of customers who return for a second purchase within a defined window. Available across the LTV & Retention dashboard and customer profile models.

Budget Optimiser

New strategic planning tool that uses historical performance data to model how each marketing channel responds to spend changes, helping you evaluate allocation trade-offs before committing budget.Key capabilities:
  • Elasticity modelling calculates each channel’s scaling responsiveness using logarithmic regression on your full historical data
  • Performance scoring weights elasticity, recent aMER, CM2 margin, and spend history to rank channels for growth budget allocation
  • Demand capture vs demand generation split treats Brand Search and Affiliate as fixed costs, directing growth budget only toward scalable channels
  • Confidence-based guardrails apply ±20% swing limits for high/medium confidence channels, and ±10% for low confidence, preventing radical reallocation from statistical noise
  • Saturation detection applies dynamic elasticity decay when projected spend exceeds historical maximums
  • Seasonal adjustments apply monthly indices so forecasts reflect your historical revenue patterns across the year
  • Multiple budget scenarios generated at £25K intervals, allowing side-by-side comparison of allocation across spend levels
The optimiser is a strategic planning tool for quarterly budget reviews, not day-to-day optimisation. Outputs are directional guidance, not guaranteed forecasts.
