Why always-on

The business keeps moving.

Creative changes, spend scales, campaigns launch and pause; last quarter’s answer quietly goes stale.

How it works

When marketing moves, Stella measures.

Eligible changes get an automated causal read; formal holdouts and MMM refreshes periodically recalibrate the daily view.

What it is not

Always-On doesn’t replace experiments.

It fills the gaps between them. The daily read is only as accurate as the tests that calibrate it, which is why the automated signal carries the least weight on its own.

Recent studies are weighted higher, so accuracy compounds as you keep testing.

With Stella, you know.

Whether that budget change moved sales.

An automated causal read on each eligible change.

And which have room before it.

When incrementality drifts.

Creative fatigue and causal decay, caught as they happen.

Whether the number is stale.

And when the next test should recalibrate it.

Today’s read, not last quarter’s.

Without waiting 20 days for a formal result.

FAQ

Always-On incrementality questions, answered.

Is Always-On a substitute for running holdouts?

No, and it is not meant to be. Always-On is the daily view; it is only as accurate as the evidence that calibrates it. Formal holdouts and MMM refreshes periodically recalibrate the daily read, and the automated signal inherits their rigor between tests. Teams that keep testing get the sharpest daily numbers.

How does a spend change qualify for a study?

When a campaign meaningfully changes spend, Stella runs a 15-day before-and-after causal analysis, controlling for your other spend and confounders. The change only qualifies if the window is clean, with no other change within a few days on either side, so each read is not contaminated by something else moving at the same time.

How fast is it compared to a holdout?

A geo holdout takes 20 days or more before you get a read. Always-On keeps a current view per campaign and channel continuously, so you move from insight to action in days. Run holdouts for the rigorous number, and let Always-On keep it fresh in between.

Which outcomes can I measure?

Target the response to Shopify revenue, Amazon revenue, or total revenue, so you can see how incremental Meta is on Shopify versus Amazon versus your blended business, not just one platform.

What plan includes Always-On?
