Date ranges
Concord understands natural language date references. You can also use these explicitly:
If you don’t specify a date range, Concord defaults to the campaign’s full flight dates.
Breakdowns
You can ask Concord to break down any metric by a single dimension at a time.Derived metrics
Concord computes these automatically when relevant to your question: CTR, CPM, CPC, Video Completion Rate (VCR), and Viewability Rate.Filtering by entity
You can scope a report to specific parts of a campaign:- Insertion order: “Only look at the Display IO”
- Line item: “Focus on the retargeting line items”
Use cases
Pacing check “Is the campaign on track to spend its full budget by end of flight?” Concord returns a progress chart showing spend to date vs. total budget.Creative fatigue analysis “Are any creatives showing declining CTR over the past two weeks?” Concord pulls creative-level daily data and identifies downward trends.
Channel comparison “How does video compare to display in terms of cost efficiency this month?” Concord breaks down CPM and VCR across insertion orders or line items.
Viewability audit “Which line items have the lowest viewability rates?” Concord ranks line items by viewability rate and surfaces the underperformers.
