Cost Explorer

Feature Summary: The Cost Explorer provides a powerful visualization tool for in-depth analysis of partner spend data through the use of various pre-built views and selectable fields.

NOTE: To view spend data alongside Kochava measurement data, please review the Measurement Explorer support documentation.

 

When the Cost Explorer view is loaded, the user is provided with the option of clicking on four pre-built views:

  • Daily Cost by Partner — Enables the viewing of daily spend by network partner.
  • Cost by Country — Enables the viewing of spend data split by country.
  • Cost by Creative — Enables the viewing of install and spend data split by creative.
  • Cost by Site — Enables the viewing of install and spend data by site.

 

The Cost Explorer is divided into two main sections:

The left section provides the ability to filter by date range, apps, media partners and partner campaign names.

The second and main section of the page provides the ability to switch between the pre-built views and examine the associated data.
