The gap

Big brands market in a closed loop. Everyone else markets in a broken line.

Large companies forecast, hold out a control group, measure real lift, cut what fails and feed what they learn into the next cycle. Everyone else has a pile of AI apps that don't share data, reports they can't verify, and ad spend with no clear proof of what came back.

A broken line

Most brands today
Ad spend AI app Agency report Result? gapgapgap

Each tool grades its own work. Money leaks between tools, between spend and proof, and between what a vendor promises and what it delivers.

A closed loop

With Connect360
Forecast Measure Pay on target Tune or swap Learn Every dollar traced to a result

Every tool has a locked forecast, a holdout to measure against, and a fee that depends on hitting its target. What it learns feeds the next period.

Which of your AI tools actually made you money last month?
If you can't name one with a number, the tool is grading its own work.
If you paused your agency tomorrow, would revenue drop? How do you know?
A holdout answers this. A monthly report doesn't.
Are you paying for results, or for reports?
On Connect360, a tool that misses its target forfeits its performance fee.

Connect360 closes the loop for any brand, at any size. See how it works

How it works

One loop, every 30 days.

You set up once. After that, every period runs the same loop: forecast, ramp up, measure, pay, tune or swap, and forecast again with what was learned.

30 days per turn 12 turns a year
  1. Set up once
  2. 1

    Onboard in one session

    Add your business profile, budget and margin. Connect your store and ad accounts: Shopify, Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads and Klaviyo. Upload your brand kit and the claims you never want made.

  3. 2

    AI recommends a plan

    The engine picks your plan and matches certified tools to your business type, market and budget. You don't have to evaluate dozens of apps yourself.

  4. Then every period
  5. 3

    Forecast locks

    Each tool gets a 30-day target. Targets reset only if you change your budget.

  6. 4

    30-day ramp-up

    New tools learn your audience first. Scoring starts on day 31.

  7. 5

    Measure against a holdout

    A share of your audience is held out, so results show real lift, not what a tool claims.

  8. 6

    Pay for results

    The base fee covers the core unit. Each tool's performance fee is paid only if it meets its target.

  9. 7

    Tune or swap

    Early warnings fire when a tool trends below target. The vendor gets a tuning window. If it still misses, the engine recommends a replacement and you approve the swap.

  10. 8

    Grow

    When your budget holds at the next tier for 2 months, you graduate to a bigger plan. Tools hand off audiences, winning creatives and conversion data.

Plans and pricing

A small base fee. Tools earn the rest by hitting their targets.

Your monthly ad budget sets your plan. Every plan includes the core unit and a holdout, so results are always measured against what would have happened anyway.

Added sales to cover it$1,000–2,400at a 50% margin

At $12,000 a month, the tools need to add $1,000–2,400 in sales every 30 days to pay for the base fee. That's 8–20% of your ad budget in added sales.

Performance feesPaid only for tools that hit their locked target. A tool that misses costs nothing beyond the base fee. Rates are set out when you join the pilot.

Base fee

Covers the core unit: audience intelligence, AI bidding and budget allocation, and the dashboard with forecasts and holdout measurement.

Performance fee

Paid only when a tool meets its locked target. A tool that misses forfeits its fee for that period.

Bonus

Shared only on gross profit above target, never on revenue. It applies to the portion above target and is capped each period.

Ad spend

Paid directly to the ad platforms from your own accounts. Connect360 never marks it up.

Pilot pricing. The base fee within each range depends on the tools in your plan, and the model may change before general launch.

Grows with you

The same system from your first $5K month to your $500K month.

Start at startup prices. When your budget holds at the next tier for 2 months, you graduate to a bigger plan, and nothing you've learned is left behind.

Under $5K a month

Startup

Close the loop for the first time: 3 funnel tools, a 10% holdout and the full core unit.

$5K–25K a month

Growth

5 funnel tools across the whole funnel, measured against a 15% holdout.

$25K–100K a month

Established

10 funnel tools and a 20% holdout. Tools compete with others in their category.

$100K+ a month

Enterprise

The full loop at scale, with proof you can take to finance.

Graduation comes with a handoff

When you move up a plan, or a tool is swapped out, the outgoing tools pass on what they learned. The new tools start from your history, not from zero.

  • Audiences
    The segments that bought, and the ones that didn't.
  • Winning creatives
    The images, videos and copy that beat their targets.
  • Conversion data
    What drove orders, by stage, so the next forecast is sharper.
For AI tool vendors

Qualified customers, and a fair way to prove your results.

Build a Connect360 Edition of your tool and get matched to brands that need your stage of the funnel. No sales team needed. Your tool is scored on lift over a holdout, so good work shows.

Matched placements

The engine places your tool with brands that fit its business type, market and budget.

A category leaderboard

Tools are ranked against others in their category on measured lift, not on claims.

Earnings that grow with results

Performance fees when you hit target, a share of the bonus when brands profit above it, and a launch incentive for new vendors.

How the bonus is shared

On gross profit above target, each period

Connect360 also keeps a share of performance fees.

FAQ

Questions brands ask first

What is a holdout, and why does it matter?

A holdout is a share of your audience that no tool reaches: 10% to 20% depending on your plan. Comparing people who saw a tool's work with people who didn't shows the lift the tool actually added, rather than sales that would have happened anyway.

What is a locked forecast? Can it change?

Before a period starts, each tool gets a 30-day target. It's locked so nobody can move the goalposts. It resets only if you change your budget.

What exactly do I pay?

A base fee every 30 days for the core unit, a performance fee for each tool that meets its target, and a bonus shared only on gross profit above target, capped each period. Your ad spend goes straight to the ad platforms and is never marked up.

What happens when a tool misses its target?

It forfeits its performance fee for that period. Early warnings fire as soon as a tool trends below target, and the vendor gets a tuning window. If the tool still misses, the engine recommends a replacement. Nothing is swapped until you approve it.

How soon will I see results?

New tools get a 30-day ramp-up to learn your audience. Scoring against the locked forecast starts on day 31. Your dashboard shows progress against target from the first day.

What happens to my data?

You connect your own store and ad accounts, and your data stays yours. Tools use it to do their stage of the funnel. When a tool is swapped or you graduate, audiences, winning creatives and conversion data hand off to the next tool so you don't start over.

Am I locked into a long contract?

Plans bill every 30 days. Pilot terms, including how to leave, are set out in writing before you start.

Which platforms does Connect360 work with?

At launch: Shopify for your store, Meta Ads, Google Ads and TikTok Ads for paid media, and Klaviyo for email. If you're on WooCommerce, Wix or another platform, join the pilot list and tell us which.
