Build trusted models that drive smarter business decisions.
Marketing Mix Modeling is a statistical technique that quantifies the revenue contribution of every marketing channel: paid media, TV, out-of-home, promotions, pricing using historical spend and sales data. Brands and agencies use MMM to answer the questions that matter most in every budget cycle: which marketing channels are driving genuine incremental revenue, and how to reallocate spend to improve overall ROI. It is also the measurement methodology most capable of holding up in a boardroom giving marketing teams the evidence they need to defend investments.
The real challenge is not running a model. It is trusting the result enough to act on it. Methodology choice, data quality, and model specification all introduce bias. ScanmarQED is built around that problem. strataQED has delivered AI-guided MMM for clients since 2006, with exploratory models live within hours and a genetic model search that surfaces the best fit for each client's specific context. MMM Labs is the next step: a full modeling platform where teams build, run, and validate models across multiple engines in one interface. Pulse Planner then connects those results to real-time budget decisions: scenario planning, spend reallocation, what-if analysis. Fully serviced, cooperative, or fully in-house. ScanmarQED meets you where you are and builds toward where you want to go.

ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliantEven if you’ve used marketing mix models before, making sense of your marketing data can feel frustrating and can often keep growth on hold.
Data that refuses to play nice
You get sales reports weekly, digital channels update daily, and brand trackers arrive quarterly. It’s no wonder you struggle to connect the dots and turn all these signals into a single, reliable story.
Channels that blur together
You see it every day: TV lifts search, promotions impact base sales, and a campaign for one product can unexpectedly boost another. Even if you don’t measure it, these overlaps are shaping your results and your decisions.
Markets that won’t sit still
With inflation spikes, supply chain challenges, and aggressive competitors, your market is constantly changing. Without a structured way to adapt, past results won’t fully explain today - and certainly won’t guide tomorrow.
Decisions made on shaky certainty
How often are you handed “the ROI” for a campaign and left wondering how reliable it really is? Without clear ranges and confidence, it’s tough to know whether to act boldly or hold back.
Turn scattered, multi-source data into a single, reliable view you can act on with confidence.
See how each channel, promotion, or campaign contributes - both individually and in combination - so you can see the full picture.
Adapt to shocks, seasonal trends, and competitor moves, so your insights remain accurate and actionable no matter how the market changes.
Plan and forecast with clarity; not around a single ROI figure, but across ranges, sensitivities, and scenarios. Know where to invest boldly and where to proceed with care, so every plan is grounded in reliable, data-driven insight.

"strataQED is simply brilliant. It makes modelling and analysis so much easier and faster than other solutions I’ve tried. It’s worth its weight in gold the amount of time and resource I’ve saved. It’s easy to get started with, but the features are never ending. Anytime I think, “Do you know it would be handy if it could do this….” I dig a little deeper and find it can already do what I want it to do. Customer support is second to none, if I ever have any questions about the software, there’s someone on the phone to me on the same day to support and answer any questions I have. 10/10 would recommend."

"We needed a partner that could not only understand how the business makes investment decisions but also challenge us in finding better ways to make our planning processes work and the inputs and collaboration that might be needed for that. With Nick’s expertise and the support from ScanmarQED, we were able to do just that."
"ScanmarQED offers a user-friendly, easy-to-navigate platform with a clean, intuitive interface. The platform is backed by a responsive team which provides prompt support when required, and an industry-leading e-learning programme, resulting in competent and confident users. All in all, a great choice for any organisation looking to create an MMM capability"
"If we had to do the same work without the QED tools, we would need at least 10 people, instead of 4."
"The big advantage of the QED apps is the speed to getting to working on the model and working out what’s going on rather than bogging down in set up. This allows us to focus more on making effective decisions and making an impact on client’s businesses."

"The guided analysis and tailor made dashboards let us focus on analysis and insights instead of data and information. The end benefit is that our commercial teams have more focus on the business and can pursue additional opportunities."

General Manager, UK at ScanmarQED
ScanmarQED is a marketing and sales analytics software company serving enterprise brands and media agencies globally. Its portfolio covers multiple measurement disciplines, with Marketing Mix Modeling as a primary specialism. ScanmarQED helps organisations bring MMM in-house on their own terms. Its product suite covers the full MMM workflow: strataQED and MMM Labs for model building and Pulse Planner for budget optimization and scenario planning. ScanmarQED is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant.
strataQED is a complete Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) platform developed by ScanmarQED. At its core is the Genetic Model Search algorithm testing all viable models and surfaces the best-fit models for each client's specific marketing context. This means teams are guided by AI through the hardest parts of model building and selection.
The practical result is speed and focus. From initial data integration, exploratory models can be live within a couple of hours, so expert time shifts from infrastructure to interpretation, the work that actually drives decisions.
strataQED gives teams full visibility into model construction and assumptions throughout. It is not a black box: every methodological choice can be interrogated, which matters when results need to hold up under scrutiny from finance or senior leadership.
MMM Labs is ScanmarQED's next-generation MMM modeling platform and a core part of its product offering. Where strataQED has been the proven modeling engine for clients since 2006, MMM Labs represents the natural evolution: a cloud-based platform where teams build, run, and validate complete, production-ready marketing mix models across multiple engines — Robyn, Meridian, PyMC, and proprietary — in a single interface.
The multi-engine architecture is not just a comparison tool. It is how MMM should be built. When independent methodologies converge on the same result, you have evidence rather than output, the kind that holds up when a CFO or senior stakeholder challenges the number.
Both products are actively used by clients today. The difference is architectural: strataQED is desktop-based; MMM Labs is cloud-based and built for teams that need defensible, production-ready models at scale.
Yes. ScanmarQED works with global media agencies including WPP Media, Publicis and Initiative Media to deliver MMM across client portfolios at scale. Both strataQED and MMM Labs are reducing per-account setup time significantly — agencies cite speed to working on the model rather than setup as the primary advantage. Our software supports multi-account modeling without proportional headcount increases, making it viable for agencies managing measurement across multiple clients and industries simultaneously.
Using strataQED, exploratory MMM results can be live within a couple of hours of initial data integration. Full production-ready models — including validation, calibration, and stakeholder-ready output — typically take days to a few weeks depending on data readiness, scope, and operating model. ScanmarQED’s onboarding is structured to minimize setup time so analyst resource goes to interpretation from the earliest stage. With MMM Labs, the cloud-based multi-engine platform, teams can reach a first model run without installation or infrastructure setup — it is designed for fast time-to-first-model, with seamless onboarding and no IT provisioning required.
Core inputs include weekly media spend or impressions by channel, the primary business KPI (revenue or unit sales), pricing and promotion data, and distribution metrics. Supporting variables include competitive spend, seasonality indices, holidays and external economical factors. A minimum of two years of weekly historical data is recommended to capture at least two seasonal cycles. Data quality and consistency matter more than sheer volume.
Most MMM platforms commit you to a single modeling engine before you have seen the data. That is a problem, because methodology choice is one of large sources of bias in MMM and a single-engine approach has no way to surface it.
Multi-engine MMM solves this by running multiple methodologies, frequentist and Bayesian, including Robyn, Meridian, PyMC and proprietary engines on the same dataset within a single platform. When independent methodologies converge, you have evidence rather than output.
This is not just a methodological advantage. It is a commercial one. Results that can be triangulated across independent engines are results a marketing team can defend, both in a boardroom and to the CFO.
ScanmarQED's MMM Labs is built around this principle, a full modeling platform where teams build and validate production-ready models across all major engines in one interface, without the overhead of running them separately.
ScanmarQED works with enterprise brands and media agencies across consumer goods, retail, gaming, financial services, telecoms, automotive, and beyond. Fully serviced, cooperative, or fully in-house, ScanmarQED meets organizations where they are, whether that is a first MMM deployment or an established in-house team looking for more scalability and quicker deployment of models. The operating model adapts accordingly while the goal stays the same: build capability rather than dependency, so teams become more self-sufficient over time, not more reliant on a vendor.
