The challenge

Gousto was growing rapidly and doubling in size each year. In order to power their advanced analytics and predictive models as well as optimize marketing spend, the data team needed to gain access to their granular, event-level data. On top of that, Gousto struggled to join web and mobile data with other data sources like email, transactional and customer service history to power their deep learning models.

The solution

With Snowplow, Gousto gained access to their rich, granular and highly structured event data. Gousto can now see which channels customers visit and how often before subscribing, and can optimize their marketing spend accordingly. With Snowplow, Gousto is able to join behavioral web and mobile app data with their email, Zendesk and transactional data. Gousto uses this data to predict churn so it can offer customers the right interventions at the right time.
