briefpeak vs BeProfit
BeProfit (now Viably Profit Analytics) focuses on real-time profit tracking with COGS management and ad spend sync. briefpeak takes a different approach — instead of giving you another dashboard to check, it generates AI-written narrative briefs explaining your store's performance, including product margins, return analysis, and recommended actions. Email delivery is coming soon.

Where each tool shines
BeProfit specializes in profit tracking
BeProfit's core strength is real-time P&L dashboards with manual COGS entry, shipping cost tracking, and multi-channel ad spend sync. If you need a dedicated profit calculator with Pinterest and Snapchat ad integrations, BeProfit covers more ad channels. They also support WooCommerce alongside Shopify.
briefpeak explains the “why” behind your numbers
BeProfit shows you your profit margins. briefpeak tells you why they changed — which products drove the shift, whether returns are eroding gains, and what to do about it. The AI-written brief is a 2-minute read that replaces the daily dashboard check.
A note on Google Ads tracking
BeProfit's Google Ads integration relies on UTM-based tracking, which captures a fraction of actual ad spend. This is worth knowing if Google Ads is a significant channel for you, as it can affect profit calculations. briefpeak pulls store data directly from your platform's API, so revenue and order figures always match your store exactly.

Frequently asked questions
Is BeProfit's profit tracking more accurate than briefpeak?+
BeProfit allows manual COGS entry which can be precise if maintained. However, their Google Ads integration relies on UTM tracking, which captures a fraction of actual spend. briefpeak calculates gross profit from your store's cost-per-item data and clearly excludes products without cost data rather than counting them as $0.
Can I migrate from BeProfit to briefpeak?+
There's nothing to migrate. briefpeak connects directly to your store and syncs your complete order history. Your existing COGS data carries over automatically — no CSV imports needed.
How does pricing compare?+
BeProfit starts at approximately $25/mo for basic plans, scaling with order volume. briefpeak offers a free tier (up to 200 orders/mo) and paid plans from $29/mo. At higher volumes, pricing is comparable, but briefpeak includes AI-generated briefs at every tier. Pricing verified as of May 2026.
Does BeProfit send email reports?+
BeProfit offers basic automated email reports, but they're data summaries — not narrative analysis. briefpeak's core product is an AI-written brief that explains what happened, why it matters, and what to do next.
Which tool is better for stores running Google Ads?+
Neither tool is primarily an ad attribution platform. briefpeak doesn't track ad spend yet (it's planned), while BeProfit's Google Ads tracking relies on UTM parameters. For dedicated Google Ads attribution, consider a tool like Triple Whale or Northbeam alongside either platform.
