    You need a warehouse, and aren't sure how to set it up

    Your data is spread across payments, CRM, ad platforms and your product database, and you want it in one place. But it isn't clear how to structure BigQuery, what to bring in first, or how to keep the bill low.

  • 02

    You have BigQuery, but it's unfinished

    The GA4 export is switched on and someone loaded a few tables once. The rest of your data isn't there, nothing updates on its own, and nobody trusts the tables that exist.

  • 03

    Every tool gives you a different number

    Meta, Google Ads, your store and your CRM each claim the same sale, and revenue never matches. You want one set of numbers, calculated one way, that the whole team uses.

  • 04

    The data is in the warehouse, but nobody uses it

    Answers still take a data request and a few days. You want dashboards people open, an AI agent that answers questions, and modelled data sent back to the tools your team works in.

What we do in BigQuery

Warehouse setup

We set up BigQuery, so it stays organised, secure and cheap as it grows.

  • Separate datasets for raw data, cleaned data and reporting tables
  • Access set by role, so each person sees what they need
  • Partitioned tables and query limits, so the bill stays predictable
01 - Setup
BigQuery warehouse setup in Google Cloud: raw, cleaned and reporting datasets, a table schema, role-based permissions, partitioned tables, query limits and usage monitoring to keep costs predictable

Get all your data in

We write Python scripts that pull data from every tool you use into BigQuery on a schedule, so the warehouse becomes your source of truth.

  • Payments, CRM, ad platforms, product analytics, your app database and spreadsheets
  • Scripts that run on their own, with past data backfilled
  • Alerts when a sync fails or a number looks off, before anyone uses the data
  • Ready-made connectors like Fivetran or Airbyte where they cost less than custom code
02 - Ingest
Data from payments, CRM, ad platforms, product analytics, an app database and spreadsheets loaded into BigQuery by scheduled Python scripts, Fivetran or Airbyte connectors and historical backfills, with alerts on failed syncs

Data models & attribution

We use dbt to turn raw tables into clean models your whole team works from, with one definition for every metric.

  • Staging and reporting models, versioned in Git
  • Tests on every model, so broken data is caught before it reaches a dashboard
  • Custom attribution built on your own orders and sign-ups, not each ad platform's view of itself
  • LTV, CAC, churn risk and account health, each defined once
03 - Model
dbt data models in BigQuery: raw tables cleaned into staging models, fact and dimension models, metrics like revenue, LTV, CAC and churn rate, and first-touch, last-touch, multi-touch and custom attribution, versioned in Git and tested

Dashboards & AI agents

We put the models to work: dashboards your team opens every day, and AI agents that answer questions in plain English.

  • Looker Studio dashboards for each team, built on the models
  • AI agents that query your warehouse, backed by a knowledge base of your metric definitions
  • Deep dives into revenue, retention and marketing spend
04 - Analyse
BigQuery data models powering Looker Studio dashboards for revenue, retention and marketing spend, and an AI agent that answers questions like why revenue dropped last month from the warehouse and a metrics knowledge base

Send data back to your tools

We send modelled data from BigQuery to the tools your team works in, in the exact format each one expects.

  • Audiences and offline conversions sent to Meta and Google Ads
  • Lead scores, LTV and churn risk synced to your CRM
  • Warehouse tables synced into Mixpanel, PostHog or Amplitude
  • Hashing, formatting and ID matching handled, so match rates stay high
05 - Activate
Reverse ETL from BigQuery: modelled users, events, revenue, LTV and segments sent to Google Ads, Meta Ads, Salesforce, Mixpanel, PostHog and Amplitude, with hashing and ID matching for high match rates

Questions

BigQuery questions

How long does a BigQuery setup take?

Most setups take four to six weeks. Week 1 is the plan and the warehouse setup, the next few weeks bring in your data and build the dbt models, and dashboards and syncs to your other tools go live at the end. Finishing an existing setup is usually quicker.

Can you finish our existing BigQuery setup instead of starting over?

Yes. We audit what's already there, keep what works, fix what's broken and bring in the data that's missing. Rebuilding from zero is rarely needed.

How much does BigQuery cost?

BigQuery charges for storage and for the data each query scans. The first 10 GB of storage and 1 TB of queries each month are free, and most startups pay little beyond that. We partition tables and set query limits, so costs stay low as your data grows.

Why BigQuery and not Snowflake?

If you use GA4, Firebase or Google Ads, BigQuery is usually the easiest start: those tools export to it for free, there are no servers to manage, and you only pay for what you use. We also work with Snowflake and Postgres, and will tell you if one of them fits you better.

Why write Python scripts instead of using Fivetran?

We use both. Connectors like Fivetran and Airbyte are quick for popular tools, but they charge by volume and don't cover every tool. Where a connector is missing or gets expensive, we write Python scripts that you own and that cost a few dollars a month to run.

What is dbt, and do we need it?

dbt is a way to write data models in SQL, with version control and tests. Every metric is defined once, changes are reviewed before they go live, and broken data is caught before it reaches a dashboard. For anything beyond a handful of tables, it's worth it.

Can you build a custom attribution model?

Yes. Each ad platform counts its own conversions, so together they claim more sales than you made. We build attribution in BigQuery from your own data, joining every touchpoint to real orders or sign-ups, so there's one number the whole team uses.

Can you send BigQuery data to our ad platforms and CRM?

Yes. We send audiences and offline conversions to Meta and Google Ads, and scores like LTV and churn risk to your CRM or product analytics tool, formatted the way each tool expects.

Do we need a data engineer?

No. We build and document everything, and the pipelines run on their own. Someone on your team who can read SQL can make small changes, and we can stay on to maintain it if you'd rather not.

Do we own what you build?

Yes. Everything lives in your own Google Cloud project and your own Git repository, so your team keeps the warehouse, the scripts, the models and the documentation after we're done.
