Your new SKU's sales chart is up. Half the volume might be coming from your own flagship.

A Bayesian discrete choice model traces every unit back to its real source: own-portfolio vs. competitor vs. brand-new buyer.

Here's what that picture looks like ↓

Most MMMs sit idle because only three people in the org can drive them. The fix isn't a better model. It's a better interface.

Nürnberger had a classic #MMM problem: lower-funnel capped, upper-funnel invisible, GDPR shortening journeys.

We built a funnel-aware MMM in pymc-marketing with censored demand + dual likelihoods.

Result: 27%+ lower CPL in 6 months.

An uncalibrated #MMM can get ROAS direction wrong, not just magnitude. We walk through prior predictive checks, ROAS parametrization, saturation likelihoods, and where lift tests break down.

Your model was right. But it was too slow to matter.

AI agents can sit on top of your Bayesian models and give stakeholders answers in seconds, not days.

Most data scientists learn Bayesian stats from textbooks.

Few get to learn from the people who built the library.

Your AI agent recommended shifting 30% of your budget to TikTok.

The code ran, the model converged, and the viz looked clean. The recommendation was wrong.

We built decision-lab to fix that, and we're open-sourcing it:

Your #MMM says paid search delivers 4x ROAS. Your lift test says 1.8x

Which drives your budget?

Stop choosing. Integrate lift tests as likelihoods to calibrate MMM.

More defensible ROAS. Real uncertainty. Better decisions.

PyMC-Marketing ROAS Posterior Distribution

PyMC-Marketing ROAS Posterior Distribution

An MMM can predict perfectly, and still get causality wrong.

This chart shows it: uncalibrated ROAS posteriors miss reality. Add one lift test → estimates snap back to truth.

Most #MMMs explain the past but choke on the future; they need variables that haven't happened yet.

Most quant models are correlational - they tell you what moved together in the past.

But robust investing needs more than correlation. It needs causal structure + functional form.

Our latest blog explores how the two work together.

Improving AI Agent Performance with Domain-Specific Skills | PyMC Benchmark Study A controlled benchmark comparing base LLM performance to skill-augmented AI agents for Bayesian modeling. Domain skills significantly improve convergence, model specification, and reliability.

We gave Claude a 15-page PyMC best-practices cheat sheet.
Pass rates jumped from 60% → 93%.

Hardest tasks saw the biggest gains:
• Stochastic volatility: 0% → 67%
• Runtime: 19 min → <3 min
