For media intelligence SaaS companies, data accuracy is mission-critical. Inaccurate or incomplete data can undermine client trust, reduce engagement, and increase churn.
This case study explores how a leading media intelligence SaaS company partnered with Grepsr to:
- Increase data accuracy from 82% to 99%
- Improve client retention and satisfaction
- Automate data extraction, normalization, and validation processes
- Free analysts to focus on insights and strategy rather than manual data cleanup
By treating data quality as a managed, strategic capability, the company strengthened client relationships and drove measurable business impact.
The Challenge: Data Accuracy Was Harming Retention
The SaaS platform aggregated media mentions, social data, and PR analytics across thousands of sources. Challenges included:
- Data inconsistencies from multiple platforms
- High manual effort for validation and normalization
- Delays in delivering insights to clients
- Client dissatisfaction and risk of churn
“Clients were noticing inaccuracies, and we were spending more time fixing data than analyzing it,” said the Head of Product.
“We knew improving accuracy was critical to retaining customers,” added the VP of Customer Success.
The company needed a solution that could ensure consistent, high-quality data without overburdening internal teams.
Why Traditional Approaches Were Falling Short
Manual validation and internal scripts had limits:
- Human errors persisted despite multiple checks
- Inconsistent formats across sources complicated analytics
- Scaling accuracy required more analyst hours
- Slow turnaround reduced client satisfaction
“We realized we needed a system that could deliver near-perfect accuracy at scale,” said the CTO.
