New measurement engine helps teams move from measurement to budget decisions faster, with causal evidence behind every recommendation

NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Lifesight, the agentic unified marketing measurement platform, today announced a transformation of its platform designed to help marketing teams make faster budget decisions without sacrificing the rigor of causal measurement. The transformed platform deploys AI agents across data operations, modeling and monitoring, while marketing scientists remain in control of every model that goes live.

CMOs now allocate an average of 15.3% of their marketing budgets to AI initiatives, according to Gartner’s 2026 CMO Spend Survey. Meanwhile, Forrester reports that 55% of organizations already use AI in production for advertising and media buying. As more budget decisions run through AI, marketers need a way to validate the evidence behind a recommendation before acting on it.

Quick Facts

• Lifesight’s transformed platform unifies data operations, modeling, causal attribution and planning.
• Agents continuously monitor marketing data and measurement health, helping teams spot issues, opportunities and changes as they happen.
• Human oversight is built in. Marketing scientists control model configuration, validation and approval, while marketers control budget decisions.
• Marketing mix modeling and incrementality experiments give every AI-assisted decision a causal foundation.
• Agents surface findings, recommend next steps and track the outcomes of past actions so teams move from measurement to decision faster.

“AI is starting to expose every weakness in how marketing measures itself,” said Tobin Thomas, CEO and co-founder of Lifesight. “Agents will act on whatever numbers they’re given, and most of those numbers were built to report on marketing, with little ability to explain what caused growth. Lifesight gives agents a causal foundation, so the faster decisions marketing leaders make are also better ones.”

How Lifesight Is Transforming Marketing Measurement

The transformed measurement engine introduces six capabilities designed to connect measurement more directly to the decisions marketers need to make:

• Agentic Modeling Loop: Agents analyze a brand’s data, suggest priors, detect unexplained spikes and dips and identify regime changes, then build those findings into the model. A marketing scientist reviews and approves every configuration.
• Ambient Agents: Always-on agents monitor data and measurement health, recommend next steps and review the outcomes of past actions, so teams hear about issues and opportunities as they happen.
• Marketing-Context Harness: A harness layer anchors every agent in the brand’s own marketing context, so recommendations reflect the specific business instead of generic AI answers
• Data OS: Enterprise-grade data operations combine native connectors with a brand’s own files, then standardize and merge them into one set of numbers. Programs reach insight sooner.
• Causal Attribution: Incrementality measurement reaches the individual creative, showing which ads actually drive sales.
• Cross-Dimension Planner: Teams optimize plans across multiple dimensions simultaneously within the same causal model that measures them, creating a single source of truth from measurement to budget.

The platform changes how teams work with measurement. Where analysts once manually configured models, agents now propose configurations for review. Rather than searching dashboards for the next insight, teams receive findings and recommended next steps as they emerge. And while data preparation was previously handled project by project, the Data OS now operates as a standing enterprise layer.

“Measurement is at a turning point, where agents can take on work that once required an entire analytics team. But the value of agentic measurement will depend entirely on the discipline behind it,” said Rajeev Nair, Chief Product Officer and co-founder at Lifesight. “Lifesight gives marketing leaders a way to embrace agents with confidence, knowing the causal science underneath has kept pace with the speed on top.”

As marketing teams face more channels, more data and faster-moving decisions, Lifesight is  moving measurement from a periodic exercise to a continuous part of the budget decision process, giving teams a clearer view of what is driving growth and where to act next.
