This is like a smart accountant for your marketing budget that looks at all your past campaigns and figures out which channels (Google, Meta, TV, email, etc.) actually drove sales, and by how much, so it can tell you where to move money to get more revenue for the same spend.
Marketers struggle to understand the true incremental impact of each channel and campaign on sales and revenue, especially with privacy changes and noisy data. This tool applies causal marketing mix modeling to attribute results properly and recommend how to reallocate spend across channels to maximize ROI.
If Lifesight leverages proprietary identity graphs and cross-channel data, its moat is a combination of unique integrated marketing data, domain-tuned causal modeling workflows, and stickiness in the media planning workflow once embedded into budget and reporting cycles.

Data quality and granularity across channels (conversions, spend, pricing, promotions) will limit model accuracy more than compute; model retraining cost and feature engineering effort also scale with number of markets and channels.
Early Majority
Positioned as a SaaSified, always-on, causal marketing mix modeling solution likely aimed at digital-first brands, as opposed to traditional MMM consulting projects; tighter integration with digital and first-party data and potentially faster refresh cycles than legacy MMM providers.
