Reuse Analytical Approaches
Narrator makes it easy to re-use analytical approaches again and again for different questions
A/B Testing
Evaluate the impact of each treatment in Narrator
A/B testing platforms are expensive and they are often limited to the data that is captured in that platform (often only web conversions). With Narrator, evaluating an A/B test is easy. Log the variants each customer has seen and build detailed analyses to understand how each variant influences your bottom line. Bonus: That analysis can be reused for future A/B tests too.
Benefits
- Understand the downstream impact of any experient
- Apply a consistent statistical approach and read-out for each experiment
- Build health-checks into your A/B testing evaluation
- Track the impact over time to see if the influence has been consistent
- Keep a record of all experiments, their outcomes, and the business context in one place
Applications
Readout of Results
Create a Narrative (live-analysis) to give a read-out of results in a story like format. Ensure that the interpretation is always up-to-date by including dynamic logic in the text (ex. if needed sample size is met then interpret the results else wait and see).

Ad Hoc Questions
Quickly answer stakeholder questions without needing data engineering's time
Narrator makes answering ad hoc questions a pleasure. Stakeholders are always asking for "quick" questions but those questions require Data Engineering to model data and BI to build a dashboard. With Narrator those questions can be answered in minutes. By having all the data in one place and ready to use, there no question that your stakeholder can ask that you cannot answer.
Benefits
- All the data is available for you
- Never worry about source of truth because you are always using it
- Missing Foreign keys are no problem because anything can be related thanks to Narrator's innovation
Applications
Exploring Data
In just a few minutes, you can assemble a dataset that bridges multiple data sources and quickly visualize the trends over time. This makes it easy to explore trends and dive deeper into your analysis.
Getting KPIs
Calculate company KPIs quickly. When a follow up question comes and you need to slice your metric by another feature, Narrator makes that as easy as a couple of clicks.

Data science is hard enough without having to deal with getting the data you need. With Narrator, you can create the data you need, save it as a view and pull it in your Jupyter notebook in seconds. As you need additional columns or new data, you can simply update the dataset and go back to your algorithm.
Benefits
- Your training datasets will always use business logic that's adopted by the rest of the company
- Deploy your algorithm quickly when needed
- Keep your notebook clean without many JOINs
- Easy to update your dataset
Applications
Kalman Filter
Use Kalman filters to predict churn by pulling time series data into your notebook, using the aggregations as training data. This allows for a live training set with all the customer's behavior data available, trusted, cleaned, and ready to use.
Logistic Regression
Creating a supervised dataset in Narrator is easy. Leverage the default conversion columns ("Did activity"). This will create a table with many 1/0 flags, which is ideal for logistic regression.
Bonus: Reuse your algorithm 👏
It is easy to swap out activities then reuse your algorithm. Your model to predict churn can be re-trained and used to predict signups with a couple of updates to a dataset.

Marketing Attribution
Build datasets to quickly compare and implement attribution models
Marketing attribution is crucial to understanding the effectiveness of your marketing spend. Unfortunately, ad platforms like Facebook and Google give a siloed view of performance and over ROI is overstated because the platform is not integrated with other systems. In Narrator, you can create marketing attribution models quickly and accurately. First touch, last touch, any touch, linear, etc. can be created with a dataset in minutes.
Benefits
- Uses the data from your company's source of truth
- Expand your attribution model to account for edge cases
- Explore various attribution models in minutes
- Quantify and debug unattributed customers using customer journey
Applications
Operational Spend
Set up operational dashboards for your marketing team so they can make spend decisions in real-time.
Marketing Spend Strategy
Evaluate which platforms have the best returns, which are best at driving new customers and which are best for remarketing.

Reuse Analytical Approaches
Narrator makes it easy to re-use analytical approaches again and again for different questions
Consultants are always recreating common analyses for each new client, but the approach is often very similar. With Narrator you can create an analysis once and reuse it again and again. The standard data model makes it easy to copy and paste analyses that read like they were purposefully built.
Benefits
- Build an analysis once and reuse it again and again
- Data transformations don't need to be re-created
- Faster delivery of each analysis
Applications
Data Consulting
For the last 3 years, Narrator provided quality analyses for customers. We were able to make it affordable because a single Narrator analyst could support eight companies as their data team. The magic was the fact that most of our analysis were templated but read as if they were purposefully-built.
