Frequently asked
›Is Floowzy a real alternative to Northbeam?
For 95% of marketing teams, yes. Northbeam's primary moat is enterprise-grade multi-touch attribution and marketing mix modeling — relevant when ad spend exceeds $500K/month and small attribution errors translate to six-figure budget misallocations. For teams below that scale, Floowzy delivers the cross-platform unified view, anomaly detection, and AI insights that drive 90% of the day-to-day decision-making — at a fraction of the cost and with self-serve onboarding.
›Does Floowzy do marketing mix modeling like Northbeam?
Not yet. MMM is on the Floowzy roadmap for Q3 2026. Today, Floowzy provides platform-level and workspace-level multi-touch attribution, which covers the most common attribution questions teams ask daily. If MMM is mission-critical for your current decision-making, Northbeam remains the stronger choice — for everyone else, Floowzy ships faster value.
›What ad spend is Floowzy designed for?
Floowzy's sweet spot is $10K–$1M monthly ad spend. The free tier supports teams getting started. Sprout ($29/mo) fits brands spending $10K–$50K. Grove ($69/mo) fits $50K–$250K. Garden ($149/mo) handles up to $1M/month. Above $1M monthly spend, enterprise MMM tools like Northbeam start delivering incremental value.
›How long does Floowzy take to set up vs Northbeam?
Floowzy takes 60 seconds — connect your ad platforms via OAuth and historical data starts populating immediately. Northbeam implementations typically take 2–6 weeks involving pixel deployment, data warehouse integration, and ML model training. The trade-off is depth of attribution math vs. time-to-value.
›Does Floowzy require a sales call to get started?
No. Floowzy is fully self-serve at every tier. Start free, upgrade when you need more workspaces or AI credits, downgrade or cancel anytime. Northbeam, like most enterprise attribution tools, requires sales engagement to scope and price.
