The problem

What this tool is for

Plan generator-specific issues
Leak #01

You're about to commission tracking work

And want the brief written first.

Leak #02

Nobody agreed what to measure

So the numbers get disputed.

Leak #03

You're onboarding an agency

And want a document they build against.

Who this is for

Honest about who we’re a fit for.

We don’t take every project. Here’s how to tell if we’re right for you.

Good fit

You’re a great fit if…

  • You run Plan generator (or are migrating to it)
  • You spend $5K+/month on paid ads (Meta, Google, TikTok, Microsoft, LinkedIn)
  • Your reported ROAS doesn’t match what your bank account is saying
  • You want to own your tracking stack — no monthly SaaS fees forever
  • You have 2–4 days to do this once and never think about it again
Not a fit

Skip us if…

  • You spend less than $500/month on paid ads (browser pixel is fine)
  • You want a SaaS dashboard with monthly fees forever (Triple Whale, Hyros)
  • You need attribution modeling — we fix the data foundation, not multi-touch reports
  • You want a 6-month enterprise consulting engagement (we ship in 4 days)
  • You expect us to manage your ad accounts (we don’t — that’s a different service)

If you’re still unsure,book the call anyway— we’ll tell you straight whether we can help.

Our position

If yourreported ROASdisagrees with your bank account, you don’t have an attribution problem.You have a data foundation problem.No SaaS dashboard fixes that — only a rebuilt 1st-party server-side stack does.

Ariful Islam — Founder
The outcome

What you get out of it

A structured plan in Markdown

Server-side

Ready for your wiki or a document.

A sign-off block

8+ EMQ

Which is what prevents the later argument.

Warnings on the two common mistakes

Deduped

Missing source of truth, and more conversions than objectives.

The full transformation report

Before vs after — built in 2–4 days, accurate data within 7 days

This is what changes structurally, not a promise about your numbers. The figures specific to your account come from the reconciliation we run against your own order records before the build and again after — the two commitments below are the ones we put in writing.

Attribution accuracy

  • Click IDs across redirects and domains
    BeforeCommonly dropped at the first hop
    AfterCaptured at first touch, persisted first-party
  • Server-attributed conversions
    BeforeNone — browser only
    AfterEvery order, sent server-side

Audience quality

  • Meta Event Match Quality

A typical engagement

The shape of a typical Plan generator rebuild

We’re not going to invent a fake testimonial here. Instead — here’s the realistic pattern of what happens, anonymized but accurate to engagements we ship.

Day 0 — They arrive

A 7-figure Plan generator store spending ~$25K/month on Meta. Reported ROAS shows 4.1× in Ads Manager. Their bookkeeper’s number says 2.6×. The founder doesn’t know which is real, so they keep doubling down on what looks like a winning campaign — except cash flow tells a different story.

Day 1 — Audit

We screen-share. Within 20 minutes we’ve found the leaks: native pixel firing twice on iOS, CAPI dedup using the wrong event_id (Meta is double-counting), GA4 showing 38% (not set), and the Customer Events API never enabled. The 1.5× ROAS gap explains itself.

Day 2–3 — Build

Server-side GTM container goes live on data.theirstore.com. Meta CAPI rebuilt with full advanced matching. Google Enhanced Conversions wired. TikTok Events API turned on. All event_ids deterministic. iOS recovered.

Day 4 — Launch

Live-fire test purchases through every funnel step. Meta Event Match Quality goes from 4.5 to 8.7 — verified live in Events Manager. They get a Notion runbook + Loom walkthrough so their dev team can extend it.

Day 5–7 — Accuracy

Conversion data starts flowing cleanly. Day 7: reported ROAS reads 2.8× (matches Stripe within 5%). Lookalike audiences grow because Meta finally has clean seed data. Their CAC dashboard makes sense for the first time in a year.

Day 30 — The math compounds

Smart Bidding has 30 days of clean signal. CPA drops 18%. They scale Meta budget 40% because they finally trust the data. Net new revenue from the recovered tracking: roughly $14K/mo above what they were getting before.

Numbers above are realistic averages from engagements we’ve shipped. Your specific recovery depends on your iOS share, ad-blocker rate, and current setup — we’ll quantify it on the call.

The cookie window unlock

400-day cookie lifetime — the longest your browser allows

Default Plan generator setups put cookies on a 7–30 day timer. Safari ITP caps client-set cookies at 7 days. That kills your retargeting windows, shrinks lookalike audiences, and starves Smart Bidding of historical signal.

We set 1st-party cookies via HTTP headers on your own subdomain — exempt from ITP’s 7-day cap. Lifetime: 400 days. The maximum Chrome, Firefox and Safari currently permit.

  • 57× longer retargeting window vs Safari default

    Reach users who saw your ad 6 months ago instead of last week.

  • Bigger lookalike seed pools

    More retained users in your custom audience = better lookalike quality on Meta, Google, TikTok.

  • Smart Bidding has 13× more signal history

    Algorithms optimize on 400 days of behavior, not 7 days. CPA stabilizes faster.

  • Critical for high-AOV / long-consideration purchases

    If your average buyer takes 30+ days to convert, default cookies miss them. 400-day cookies don’t.

Cookie lifetime — head to head

How long cookies survive in real-world traffic

Safari ITP (default)7 days
Chrome / Firefox (typical)30 days
Meta default retargeting window90 days
Google Ads default cookie540 days(but capped by browser)
Our 1st-party server-side400 days

400 days is the hard maximum enforced by RFC 6265bis (Chrome 104+, Safari 17+, Firefox 110+). We set it via HTTP Set-Cookie: Max-Age=34560000 on your subdomain. Survives Safari ITP’s 7-day client-side cap.

Under the hood

What’s actually happening on your server-side stack

Six capabilities your default Plan generator setup doesn’t have. Built on the same Stape Pro stack used by enterprise DTC brands.

Cookie window

Cookie Keeper

400-day 1st-party cookies

Set via HTTP headers on your subdomain — the maximum browsers allow. Survives Safari ITP’s 7-day cap that kills retargeting.

Ad-block resistance

Custom Loader

Custom-loaded GTM scripts

Your gtm.js and analytics scripts load through a custom path on YOUR domain. uBlock, AdBlock Plus, Brave can’t identify them as trackers.

Attribution

Click ID Restorer

Click ID restoration

fbclid / gclid / ttclid / wbraid recovered from the URL and persisted server-side. Multi-redirect funnels stop dropping attribution. Safari user IDs restored.

Profit signal

POAS Data Feed

POAS — Profit on Ad Spend

Send actual profit data (not revenue) to Meta / Google. Smart Bidding optimizes for the metric that matters: net margin, not gross revenue.

Identity

User ID

Cross-session User ID

Stable userID generated server-side from IP + UA + SSL fingerprint. Stitches anonymous → known → returning visitors across 400 days.

Audience signal

GEO Headers

GeoIP enrichment

Country, region, city, postal code passed to Meta / Google CAPI from your server — without exposing the raw user IP to the browser.

Compliance

Anonymizer

PII hashing by default

Email, phone, name, address are SHA-256 hashed on your server before they leave for Meta or Google. Zero raw PII in transit.

Quality filtering

Bot Detection

Bot traffic detection

Bot/scraper traffic identified at the gateway and blocked from polluting your audiences. Smart Bidding optimizes against humans, not bots.

Reliability

Dedup logic

Browser ↔ server dedup

Deterministic event_id and event_time so Meta / Google never double-count. Your reported ROAS stops contradicting Stripe.

Reputation

Dedicated IP

Dedicated outbound IP

Your sGTM gets a dedicated static IP for outgoing CAPI requests. Better deliverability to Meta, Google, TikTok — no shared-IP noise.

Residency

Multi-region

EU / US region routing

GDPR-conscious stores route their CAPI traffic through EU regions (Stape EU or self-hosted GCR europe-west). No US data hop.

Data warehouse

BigQuery export

BigQuery + Looker dashboard

Server logs + GA4 raw events streamed to BigQuery. Looker Studio dashboard branded for your team. Premium tier.

We’re official Stape Pro partners — every Power-Up above is enabled and configured for you. Or we self-host the equivalent on your Cloud Run / GKE if your traffic justifies the cost crossover. You pick.

Live data flow

What your stack is doing —right now

Every conversion fires through your subdomain, gets enriched with hashed identity params, deduped against the browser pixel, then forwarded to Meta CAPI, Google EC, TikTok Events API and Microsoft UET in parallel.

You see this stream live in your sGTM debug console — not a SaaS dashboard you rent. It’s your data, on your server, on your subdomain.

The honest math

Three ways to fix your tracking. One of them makes sense.

Option 1

Hire a senior tracking engineer

$15K–$25Kin dev cost

or 2–4 weeks of senior FTE time

  • 2–4 weeks before anything ships
  • Misses iOS / Safari / dedup edge cases
  • No EMQ guarantee — it’s “done” when they say so
  • Pixel debugging is not their day job

Option 2

Triple Whale / Hyros / Northbeam

$300–$2,000/month forever

$18K–$120K over 5 years

  • You rent a dashboard — they own your data
  • Cancel and you lose attribution overnight
  • Per-event / per-visitor pricing surprises
  • Still doesn’t fix your underlying tracking
Recommended

Option 3 — us

Done-for-you 1st-party server-side

$400–$1,800one-time

pay once · own the stack forever

  • Live in 2–4 days · accurate data within 7
  • iOS / Safari / dedup all handled by default
  • Meta EMQ 8+ guaranteed in writing
  • You own everything — server, container, runbook

We’re upfront: if you have a senior in-house dev with capacity and 4 weeks, hiring is fine. If you spend $1M+/yr on ads and want a SaaS dashboard layered on top, Triple Whale works. For most paid-ad advertisers between, we’re the math that makes sense.

Pricing

Pick the package that fits your ad spend

Fixed-fee, no surprises. If your ad spend is meaningful,server-side tracking is what we recommend— it’s the only setup that survives iOS, Safari ITP and ad blockers.

Tier 01

Browser-side starter

$400One-time fee · lifetime ownership

If the tool found something and you'd rather not fix it yourself: we repair the root cause in your existing setup and verify it on a live conversion.

  • Root cause fixed, not worked around
  • Verified on a live conversion
  • Reconciled against your own records
  • Written handover
Have it fixed
Tier 02
Recommended

1st-party server-side

$800One-time fee · most popular

Save $18K–$120K over 5 years vs Triple Whale / Hyros

Removes the class of failure rather than the instance. Money events from your own records through a first-party container on your subdomain.

  • First-party server container on your own subdomain
  • Events from your records, not the browser
  • Deduplicated on a shared event ID at every destination
  • First-party cookies beyond Safari's 7-day cap
  • 95%+ accuracy and 8+ Meta EMQ, guaranteed in writing
Rebuild it server-side
Tier 03

Full 1st-party stack

$1,800One-time fee · lifetime ownership

Every paid channel server-side plus the offline loop, with monitoring so the next break surfaces in days rather than at quarter end.

  • Everything in 1st-party server-side
  • Pinterest, Snapchat, Reddit and LinkedIn CAPI
  • CRM and offline conversion loop
  • Refunds and cancellations reversed everywhere
  • Monitoring on every destination

“I’ll personally walk through your tracking on the call.No SDR.No sales pitch.”

I’ve spent 8 years rebuilding tracking for DTC brands, SaaS founders, agencies, and one thing I’ve learned: most tracking problems aren’t technical — they’re trust problems. You don’t know who to believe. Your current vendor swears it’s fine. Meta’s reports look great. Stripe says otherwise.

On our call, I’ll personally show you exactly what’s leaking, exactly what it would cost to recover, and whether you should hire us at all. If your current setup is genuinely fine, I’ll tell you. If a $400 browser-side fix is enough, I’ll say so. No upsell pressure.

Book the call. Worst case, you walk away with a free 47-point audit checklist. Best case, we deliver your 1st-party server-side stack in 2–4 days and your data is fully accurate within 7 days.

Arif— Founder

Architecture

Why the plan comes before the tags

Most tracking rebuilds we're asked to do are re-implementations rather than repairs — the first build was correct and measured the wrong thing.

  1. Step 1

    A correct implementation of the wrong thing is still wrong

    And it's far more expensive to discover, because everything looks like it's working.

  2. Step 2

    An unnamed source of truth guarantees a dispute

    Every argument about whose number is right traces back to nobody having written it down.

  3. Step 3

    More than one conversion per objective confuses bidding

    It optimizes toward an average of things you value differently.

  4. Step 4

    Sign-off is the point

    A plan nobody agreed is a document. A plan marketing and finance both signed is a reference.

Diagnostic sequence

What this tool cannot tell you

Stated up front, because a tool that implies more confidence than it has is worse than no tool. These are checks you have to run yourself.

  1. 1

    Whether your objectives are the right ones

    That's a business question. The plan just makes them explicit.

  2. 2

    Whether the conversion actually indicates the objective

    Worth arguing about with whoever signs it off.

  3. 3

    Whether your source of truth is reliable

    It records what you named. Whether that system's data is clean is a separate question.

  4. 4

    Anything about your implementation

    This is the brief, not the build.

Source-of-truth validation

How to confirm the result

Against your own records, not against the tool's output.

Source of truththe system you name in the plan itself
  • A written plan signed off before implementation started.
  • One indicating conversion per objective.
  • A named source-of-truth system with an owner.
  • A value definition with a documented derivation.
  • Reconciled over a fully closed window, matched per record rather than on totals.
  • Re-checked after your next site release, which is when most breaks happen.

Straight talk

Why this isn't gated

There's no email form in front of it, and that's deliberate.

  • A tool you have to pay for with your contact details is a lead form wearing a costume. If this is useful, it should be useful without a transaction.
  • Everything it does runs in your browser. There is no endpoint, so there is nothing for us to collect even if we wanted to — open your network tab and check.
  • It will tell you when you don't have a problem. That outcome costs us a sale and happens regularly, which is the point of publishing it rather than putting it behind a call.
  • If it does find something and you'd rather fix it yourself, the reference pages on this site cover the how. Hiring us is one option, not the conclusion.

Got questions?

The honestanswers.

No buzzwords, no upsell. If we don’t know, we say so.

01How long should a measurement plan be?

Two pages. One that nobody reads has failed at its only job, and length is the usual reason.

02Who should sign it off?

Whoever will quote the numbers — usually marketing and finance together. That signature is what prevents the dispute later.

03What if we can't agree a conversion value?

Say so in the plan and use volume-based optimization for now. An acknowledged gap beats an undocumented guess.

04Can I edit the output?

It's plain Markdown — edit it however you like. It's a starting structure, not a form to submit.

Still have questions?Book a 30-min call— bring them all.
