CLEAN FOUNDATION

One clean foundation under any attribution model

Attribution is only as good as the data underneath it. Upside unifies emails, calls, meetings, campaigns, and web activity into one clean timeline per deal, including the inferred touchpoints your CRM never logged. Whatever model you run on top, it runs on the whole story.

HIDDEN TOUCHES

Attribute the touchpoints your CRM never logged

Most attribution models only credit what reps remembered to log. Upside extracts call attendees, email threads, and meeting invites from unstructured data and brings them into the attribution model as first-class touchpoints, so credit flows to the channels and campaigns the CRM was blind to.

MULTI-TOUCH ANSWER

Get a rigorous multi-touch answer without building anything

Not every team wants to design its own model — sometimes you just need a credible multi-touch view you can take to planning. Upside's next-generation Pipedash model spreads impact-based credit across every touchpoint in the deal, broken down by team, channel, and individual touch, and tells you why each one mattered to the win. A defensible answer your CFO can audit, with nothing to set up.

CAUSE & EFFECT

Views into cause and effect, not just credit splits

A lot of what teams actually want from attribution isn't a credit split, it's an answer. Upside's influence reports and channel report cards show what's moving deals from a specific angle: which campaigns touched won deals, what channels moved deals forward, which programs influence pipeline without sourcing it.

The challenge we were trying to solve was essentially annual planning, getting a good sense of where our pipeline was coming from, where to double down as we were thinking about budget allocation for the year ahead.

Impact

What you get when attribution actually reflects reality

What Upside unlocks

End the 'marketing says / sales says' debate

When marketing, sales, SDRs, and RevOps all work from the same reconstructed source of truth, zero-sum attribution fights disappear. Planning conversations become grounded in shared reality.

See everything that contributed

Get true visibility into everything that contributed to pipeline, even when touchpoints weren't logged, contact roles were incomplete, or campaign membership was broken. Upside finds it and attributes it.

Make budget decisions on real data, not last-touch

Reallocate spend the moment multi-touch data shows a major pipeline-per-opp gap between programs (e.g. events vs paid). The kind of move you can only justify with a forensic journey your CFO can audit.

I've been in marketing for 10+ years, and I've never been able to get a clear picture of the buyer journey before Upside.

FAQs

Questions? Answers.

Does Upside replace my existing attribution tool?

Most customers replace their point or position-based attribution tool with Upside because Upside covers more sources and works with messier data.

Do we have to use a multi-touch model?

No. Multi-touch is one lens. Some teams legitimately run last-touch for opportunity sourcing, others build custom models on the unified data with the Upside MCP. Upside supports the model that matches how your business actually makes decisions.

What if our UTM tagging is inconsistent?

Tagging is never perfectly consistent, and that's fine. Upside's channel rules are dynamic and flexible enough to adapt to what your data actually looks like: UTMs when they exist, referrer URLs when they don't, GCLIDs for Google Ads even without UTMs, and natural-language rules for the edge cases. Inconsistent tagging doesn't break the model, and you can apply the rules retroactively to clean up historical data.

Do we need to clean up our CRM data first?

No. Upside is specifically designed to work with messy, incomplete GTM data. We extract missing contact roles, infer hidden touchpoints, and reconstruct buying groups automatically, doing the heavy lifting of cleaning up your data so you can get insights rapidly.

Can we compare Upside's attribution to our current model?

Yes. You can run both at the same time and see how differently we look at the world. Upside tends to find more specific influence because it looks at the whole buying group, not just the contacts on the opportunity.

How long until we have trusted attribution?

Implementation takes days. Once your sources are connected, attribution runs on your live data, so you are interrogating a working model quickly instead of waiting on a quarter-long rollout.
