## Where Triple Whale is stronger

Attribution. Triple Whale runs its own pixel and multi-touch models, so it can tell you which ads and touchpoints actually led to a sale. Jimmy relies on what Google and Meta report and doesn't try to settle that argument.

It's also a much bigger toolbox: custom metrics, SQL, segmentation, creative generation and AI that can act on your ad accounts. For a team with a media buyer and a data person, that's real leverage.

And there's a free plan, which lets you try the data view without paying anything.

## A platform for a team, or a message for an owner

Triple Whale assumes someone will live in it: build reports, ask Moby, review agent summaries in Slack. That's the right shape for a brand with a growth team.

Jimmy assumes the opposite. Most small store owners don't have a growth team, and the morning message is the whole product.

## Read-only on purpose

Moby can take actions on your ad accounts, with approval controls. Jimmy never changes anything. It reads, prices the problem and tells you what to do, and you decide. Some owners want the automation; others want a second opinion they can trust not to touch anything.

## Choose Triple Whale if

- You spend enough on ads that attribution decides budgets
- You have a marketing or data team who'll use dashboards and SQL
- You want AI that generates creative and acts on ad accounts
- You sell on BigCommerce or a headless setup
- You want a free plan to start

## Choose Jimmy OS if

- You run the store yourself and don't want another dashboard
- You want a short WhatsApp message instead of Slack summaries
- You'd rather connect read-only than install a pixel
- You want Search Console and Merchant Center watched too
- You want a simple monthly price
