Mutiny is a no-code AI platform that helps marketers convert their top of funnel demand into revenue, without engineers. Mutiny gives marketers data and analytics, as well as AI-powered recommendations and content writing. Mutiny states they are backed by Sequoia Capital, YCombinator and CMOs from tech companies including AngelList, Carta, Gong, Hopin, Salesforce and Snowflake.
Metadata is well suited when you have a really large ad budget (>50k per month at least). This is because the power of metadata lies in the ability to quickly set up and run a large number of experiments (combinations of channel, audience, creative, and conversion assets). To evaluate these variations, all of them need a large number of impressions, clicks, and conversions to be statistically relevant. If your budget is smaller, you will either have a very small number of experiments (not fully utilizing the power of metadata), or your experiments will not have enough clicks to make informed decisions. We had expected a better explanation of this from metadata before signing up.
B2B website optimization is where Mutiny shines. However, you would need a certain level of traffic to justify the investment. Mutiny currently does not support outside the web like in-app and it's also not made for B2C. There are other experimentation tools out there that are a better fit for those areas.
B2B Personalization. Many out-of-the-box audience segmentation options as well as integration options with tools like 6sense, Clearbit, Salesforce, Marketo, HubSpot, and Segment.
No need for engineering resources. Their simple, yet powerful visual experience editor as well as out-of-the-box functionalities like banners, side pops, survey modals and exit-intent modals let you create experiences without engineering.
Segment analyzer. They automatically suggest to you which segments have a high potential for improvement and recommend you a playbook from another Mutiny client to execute on successful use cases.
If you don't have a large budget and audience it's hard to meaningfully optimize. If I have 4 ad creatives, to 2 audience groups on FB and LinkedIn, that creates 16 experiments, each of which needs an ample enough budget, say $40/day, that's now $640 per day or $19K per month.
Limited ability to edit ads after they've been launched. You usually have to stop the ad, clone it, and launch a new campaign.
Can't add new ads to existing campaigns which limits the ability to optimize. If I start an MD campaign with 4 ads, and in a few weeks we see that one is working well and the other 2 are not performing, I can pause those (or it can autopause by rules), but I can't add 2 more new creatives to the mix against the high performer. I'd have to either stop the high performer, and recreate it in a new campaign (losing likes and comments), OR - leave the high performer in the first campaign, and create. a second campaign with the new ones, which will only optimize against each other.
Limited to a single conversion event on a landing page. I'm not able to choose either a Demo Request OR a Sign-Up conversion, I can only choose one.
Google search ads are doable but aren't necessarily more feature-rich or easy-to use than native, so there's no value added to doing it through Metadata in my opinion aside from unifying ad reporting.
We chose [Metadata.io] because it was a smaller company and could get more personalized attention. The price was better and they seemed more eager to support us. The feature set was what we were looking for and not more - it was exactly as robust as we needed it to be. Didn't want to pay for features we weren't going to use.
Mutiny makes it much simpler to execute personalization activities and A/B tests compared to big names out there like Optimizely and Adobe Target. The Mutiny team specifically tackled that hurdle that many marketers face when using these kinds of tools. They honed in on executing the "without the need for engineering" pieces. Note that Optimizely and Target both have WYSIWIG functionalities as well, it's just that Mutiny makes it easier to make changes, even with some AI-suggested copy recommendations. That being said, Optimizely and Adobe Target have more advanced features for A/B testing and AI/ML decision-making.
