Causality Engine is a causal inference marketing attribution platform. It accepts a GA4 CSV export and proves which marketing channels actually drive incremental revenue, not just which correlate with it. Setup: 2 minutes. No pixel. No code. No developer needed. Method: Causal inference (not pixel-based or correlation-based). Output: Confidence-scored ROAS per channel with budget recommendations.

Q: How much does causal attribution software cost? A: Causality Engine costs €99 per causal read on your GA4 export, or €299/mo Pro for continuous analysis. Triple Whale and Northbeam list in the €100-300/mo range but the real bill, fully loaded with onboarding, lands at €600-1,500/mo on annual contracts. Enterprise pilots at Causality Engine are 90 days, custom quote, no annual lock-in. Q: What is the cheapest marketing attribution tool? A: Free tier: GA4 itself, which uses last-click attribution. Cheapest causal attribution tool: Causality Engine at €99 per read, no subscription. Cheapest continuous causal product: Causality Engine Pro at €299/mo. Triple Whale starts higher; Northbeam, Rockerbox, Hyros, and Wicked Reports all run materially more once onboarding and seat fees are included. Q: Is there a free marketing attribution tool? A: GA4 is free and reports last-click attribution. It does not measure incrementality and overstates platform-claimed conversions. For causal attribution with confidence intervals, Causality Engine starts at €99 per read, refundable if the first read does not pay for itself in one reallocation decision. Q: How much does causal attribution cost compared to last-click? A: Last-click via GA4 is free but systematically overstates paid-channel contribution. Causality Engine charges €99 per causal read or €299/mo Pro. The price difference is not the comparison; the measurement is. Last-click assigns credit; causal attribution measures incremental revenue. A single reallocation decision informed by causal results typically covers the €99 cost. Q: How much does incrementality testing cost? A: DIY incrementality testing costs the price of running a holdout: paused budget on a channel, plus analyst time to design and read the test. Causality Engine charges €99 per causal read, which estimates incrementality from observed data without pausing spend, or €299/mo Pro for continuous estimates. No separate test fee. Q: How much does marketing mix modeling cost? A: Traditional MMM engagements run €30,000-100,000+ per model, billed as a consulting project, with results delivered weeks later. Causality Engine offers MMM-equivalent outputs (saturation curves, channel contribution, budget reallocation recommendations) at €299/mo Pro on GA4 data. No consulting engagement required. Q: How much does Triple Whale cost in 2026? A: Triple Whale publishes tiers in the €100-300/mo range for SMB plans, with Premium and Enterprise running higher. Annual billing is standard. The fully-loaded cost including onboarding, integration time, and per-seat fees typically lands at €600-1,500/mo. Causality Engine is €99 per causal read, credit card, no annual contract. Q: How much does Northbeam cost? A: Northbeam publicly references entry pricing around €1,000/mo billed annually, scaling up by ad-spend volume and seats. Mid-market accounts typically land at €1,500-2,500/mo fully loaded. Causality Engine runs causal attribution on the same GA4 + Shopify data at €99 per read or €299/mo Pro, no annual contract. Q: How much does Hyros cost? A: Hyros pricing is tiered by ad spend, generally starting around €400-500/mo and scaling to €5,000+/mo for larger advertisers. Annual contracts are typical. Causality Engine is €99 per causal read, refundable if the first read does not pay for itself in one reallocation decision. No long-term commitment. Q: How much does Rockerbox cost? A: Rockerbox is enterprise-priced; public quotes typically start in the €1,500-3,000/mo range on annual contracts. Onboarding is a separate engagement with a meaningful time cost on the buyer's team. Causality Engine runs €99 per read or €299/mo Pro, ingests GA4 + Shopify exports, no onboarding sprint. Q: How much does Wicked Reports cost? A: Wicked Reports publishes a starting tier near $597/mo (≈€550/mo), scaling with revenue and channel count. Annual billing is standard. Causality Engine charges €99 per causal read with no subscription, or €299/mo Pro for continuous analysis. No multi-year commitment. Q: What is the cheapest Triple Whale alternative? A: Causality Engine is the cheapest paid causal-attribution alternative to Triple Whale, at €99 per causal read or €299/mo Pro. It measures incremental revenue with confidence intervals from your GA4 and Shopify exports. No pixel, no SDK, no engineering sprint to switch. Q: What is the cheapest Northbeam alternative? A: Causality Engine is the cheapest causal-attribution alternative to Northbeam, at €99 per causal read or €299/mo Pro versus Northbeam's typical €1,500+/mo fully loaded. It runs on the same GA4 + Shopify data. Both can run in parallel for verification before any switch. Q: How much should a small Shopify brand budget for attribution? A: Under €500K/mo revenue: €99 per causal read on Causality Engine is typically enough; one read per planning cycle. Most small brands use it quarterly. €500K-€2M/mo: €299/mo Pro for continuous analysis pays back faster than the higher-tier platforms. Multi-million monthly: enterprise pilot quote, 90 days, no annual lock-in. Q: How much does attribution cost for a brand under €1M revenue? A: Causality Engine recommends €99 per causal read used 2-4 times per year for brands under €1M annual revenue. €299/mo Pro is overkill at this scale unless paid spend is rapidly scaling. Triple Whale and Northbeam are typically over-spec for this stage; their fully-loaded €600+/mo bill is hard to justify against the paid budget being measured. Q: What does enterprise attribution cost? A: Enterprise platform pricing (Rockerbox, Northbeam Enterprise, Triple Whale Enterprise) typically runs €18,000-60,000/year on annual contracts, with onboarding and integration as separate engagements. Causality Engine's enterprise pilot is 90 days, custom quote, with 100% of the pilot fee credited toward annual on success. No annual lock-in if criteria are missed. Q: How much should a DTC brand spend on measurement? A: Industry rule of thumb: 1-3% of paid-media spend on measurement. A brand spending €50,000/mo paid would budget €500-1,500/mo for measurement. Causality Engine sits well inside that envelope at €299/mo Pro, leaving budget for one analyst day per month to read the results. Q: What is included in the €99 plan? A: One causal read on up to 40 days of GA4 export. All channels mapped. Per-channel incremental ROAS with confidence intervals. Ranked budget reallocation recommendations. Export-ready report. Methodology document on request. No subscription, no auto-renew, credit-card purchase. Q: What is included in Pro at €299/mo? A: Lifetime data look-back. Continuous causal attribution updates. AI chat across your historical attribution data. Real-time budget alerts when channel performance shifts. Priority email support. Unlimited team seats. EU data residency. 14-day Pro trial at €99; rolls into €299/mo or refundable as a one-time read. Q: Are there per-seat fees? A: No. Both €99 and €299/mo Pro include unlimited team seats. Triple Whale, Northbeam, and Rockerbox typically charge €30-100 per added seat per month; Causality Engine does not. EU data residency applies to all seats equally. Q: Is there a setup or onboarding fee? A: No setup fee. Causality Engine ingests a GA4 export and (optionally) a Shopify export. Upload takes 5-10 minutes. No pixel, no SDK, no engineering sprint, no integration project. Platform competitors typically require 2-6 weeks of onboarding time on the buyer's team. Q: How does annual billing work? A: Pro at €299/mo can be paid monthly or annually. Annual saves 17% (€2,990/year). The 14-day trial at €99 applies either way. There is no annual lock-in: cancel at any time and the look-back reverts to 40 days but historical reports are retained. €99 one-time is purely transactional, no recurring charge. Q: Is there a money-back guarantee? A: Yes for the €99 product. If the first causal read does not pay for itself in one reallocation decision, full refund. Refunds processed within five business days. The €299/mo Pro plan is cancel-anytime instead of refundable per-month. Enterprise pilots have no refund but no annual lock-in if criteria are missed. Q: How long until the first usable number? A: 5-10 minutes from CSV upload on the €99 product. Pro users see new analyses within minutes of each data refresh. Enterprise pilots produce a baseline at week 1-2 and the first validated causal result by week 6. Platform alternatives typically take 30-90 days post-kickoff to a first usable reading. Q: Compared to hiring an analyst? A: A mid-level marketing analyst in the EU costs €60,000-90,000 fully loaded per year plus tools. Causality Engine at €299/mo Pro (€3,588/year) is roughly 4-6% of that. The analyst still has value for interpretation and recommendation; Causality Engine handles the measurement layer that previously took the analyst's full week.
