At the NY R conference today, the Meta team presented their MMM package for R:

> **[Robyn](https://facebookexperimental.github.io/Robyn/)**

> Robyn is an automated Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) code. It aims to reduce human bias by means of ridge regression and evolutionary algorithms, enables actionable decision making providing a budget allocator and diminishing returns curves and allows...

They have built a feature where you calibrate the MMM model selection using plug-in estimates from experiments or causal inference.

Seems like an interesting approach, wasn’t enough time in the 15m talk to explain how it worked.
