MarinOne
MarinOne is a SaaS platform for managing and optimizing search, social, and eCommerce advertising across publishers. Its customizable dashboards bring channel performance data together for cross-channel reporting, campaign management, and ROI optimization. Marin Bidding supports spend, efficiency, volume, engagement, and awareness objectives. Budget tools cover planning, forecasts, pacing, dynamic allocation, and bid recommendations; automation includes rules, alerts, workflows, and automated bidding. BI Connect can link reporting to tools such as Tableau and Google Data Studio, and a reporting-only REST API supports connections to client tools or reporting databases. A Google Sheets extension lets users select Marin data from within Sheets. Connect costs $500 a month and includes five data sources, 90 days of backfill, and 24 months of retention. Ascend costs $1,000 a month and One costs $2,000 a month; both list unlimited sources and 365 days of backfill. Marin advertises a 30-day free trial, but there is no free plan. In April 2025, Marin said its board had approved a dissolution and liquidation plan, subject to stockholder approval.
