You're guessing where your budget should go
Every platform tells you it's working. Google Ads claims 200 conversions. Meta says 180. Your CRM shows 150 new customers. The numbers don't add up because every platform takes credit for the same customer, and nobody's math includes the full picture from first touch to closed revenue.
So you build a spreadsheet. You export spend from each ad platform, pull revenue from Stripe, match customers by UTM parameters (when they're not broken), and try to calculate a real CAC. The formula is fragile, the data is stale by the time you finish, and you're never fully confident in the numbers.
How ZeroTwo calculates your true CAC
Pulls revenue, subscription tier, and payment dates for new customers
StripeZeroTwo collected 47 new customers this week with MRR and payment metadata mapped to each
Pulls ad spend and cost-per-result across all active campaigns
MetaZeroTwo captured spend, impressions, and conversion counts by campaign and ad set for the same period
Matches each customer to the campaign or touchpoint that acquired them
GoogleZeroTwo traced every new customer using UTMs, referrer data, and CRM source fields — Google Search delivers $38 CAC with a 5.2x LTV ratio, while LinkedIn sits at $210 CAC with a 1.1x ratio
Builds the channel-by-channel attribution report with trend lines
GoogleZeroTwo compiled spend, CAC, LTV:CAC ratio, and 12-week trend lines showing where acquisition costs are rising fastest
Delivers budget recommendations to your marketing team
SlackZeroTwo posted the three most efficient channels, flagged LinkedIn for a spend review, and suggested shifting $2K/week to Google organic content

Frequently asked questions
ZeroTwo supports multiple attribution models: first touch, last touch, linear, and time-decay. You can run the analysis with different models to see how channel value shifts depending on the framework, giving you a clearer view of what's driving conversions.
ZeroTwo connects to any ad platform with a spend reporting API (Google, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and more). Each channel gets its own CAC calculation, and ZeroTwo normalizes the data so cross-channel comparisons are apples-to-apples.
ZeroTwo uses multiple signals beyond UTMs, including referrer data, landing page patterns, and CRM source fields, to attribute customers. It also flags attribution gaps so you know where your tracking needs improvement.
Multi-touch customers are attributed based on the model you choose. ZeroTwo shows you the full journey map and lets you compare how different attribution models assign credit, so you can decide where to shift budget.
Yes. Each weekly run builds on previous data, so you get trend lines showing how CAC by channel evolves. This helps you spot when a channel is becoming more expensive or when a new campaign is outperforming expectations.
Yes. By combining Stripe revenue data with acquisition cost, ZeroTwo calculates LTV:CAC ratios by channel and cohort. This reveals which channels bring in the most valuable long-term customers, not only the cheapest acquisitions.
