What Attribution is, in short
Attribution sits between product analytics and enterprise marketing measurement, linking advertising spend and customer touchpoints to CRM, payment and revenue outcomes. It is best suited to small B2B SaaS, ecommerce and agency teams with a reasonably mature data stack; teams needing direct mobile-app measurement, extensive historical backfills or advanced offline and warehouse workflows should expect Custom-plan requirements. LinkedIn lists the company as founded in 2014, headquartered in San Francisco and employing 2-10 people, while the company describes its growth as organic ([linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/company/attribution?utm_source=openai))
