    Marketing Intelligence

    • Connects to all major marketing platforms
    • ML-powered analysis & dashboards
    • Smart signals & recommendations

    If you're using Power My Analytics, you probably have...

    • Automated data pulls from Facebook Ads, Google Ads, and other platforms into Google Sheets
    • Client-facing reports that update on a schedule
    • A streamlined workflow for getting numbers into the format you need
    • An agency or small team that values simplicity and affordability

    You've solved the data collection problem. The numbers arrive on time, every time.

    What Power My Analytics does well

    • Simple, reliable automation — connect your ad accounts, pick your metrics, get data in Sheets
    • Affordable for small teams — great value compared to enterprise ETL tools
    • Agency-friendly — easy to manage multiple clients and data sources
    • Google Sheets native — works where most small teams already live

    For teams that need data in spreadsheets without the complexity of a data warehouse, Power My Analytics is a smart choice.

    The gap

    The timing problem

    Your data refreshes on a schedule — maybe daily, maybe hourly. But performance shifts don't follow schedules. A campaign can start bleeding budget between refreshes, and nobody knows until the next manual review.

    The interpretation problem

    The numbers land in your sheet. ROAS dropped from 4.2 to 3.1. Is that normal fluctuation? A creative fatigue issue? An audience overlap problem? The sheet doesn't tell you — and neither does Power My Analytics.

    The action problem

    You see the numbers. Now what? Which campaigns need attention first? What's the recommended fix? Spreadsheets are great at storing data. They're terrible at prioritizing what matters.

    A scenario you've probably lived through

    It's Monday morning. You open the Google Sheet that Power My Analytics populated over the weekend. Facebook CPA is up across three campaigns. Google ROAS is down on one.

    You start digging. Cross-referencing tabs. Checking date ranges. Building a pivot table. Two hours later, you have a hypothesis — maybe. But you're still not sure which action to take first.

    Meanwhile, the campaigns kept spending.

    Where Nylo is different

    Nylo connects to your marketing platforms directly and transforms how you work with data.

    • Your own data connectors + built-in analysis — Nylo connects to all major marketing platforms directly. No middleman needed for the data sources that matter to marketers.
    • ML models trained on your data — Bayesian Marketing Mix Models learn your channel dynamics, detect saturation points, and recommend budget shifts — with statistical confidence, not guesswork. Time-series forecasting (Prophet, ARIMA) predicts next week's performance. Not correlation — causation.
    • Creative intelligence — Computer vision reads every ad image and video frame-by-frame: hooks, emotions, talent, CTAs, pacing, scene transitions. Discover which creative patterns actually drive performance at scale.
    • Smart signals — Not just threshold alerts. Nylo's anomaly detection (4 statistical methods) learns your data patterns and surfaces what matters — enriched with market context from automated web research on platform changes, competitor moves, and seasonality.
    • The analyst your team has been missing — A personalized AI agent swarm (20+ specialized agents) that knows your goals, your KPIs, and your industry. It doesn't just flag numbers — it explains why, adds market context, and recommends what to do next.
