Churney is a Copenhagen-based B2B SaaS startup that uses causal machine learning to predict individual customer lifetime value (pLTV) and feeds those predictions in real-time to ad platforms like Meta, Google, and TikTok, enabling brands to bid toward long-term value rather than short-term conversions. The platform has demonstrated 12–190% ROAS uplift across 30+ brands including Zapier, Headway, and LA Apparel. Founded in 2019 by a team of PhDs in machine learning and causal inference — including former Spotify research scientist Brian Brost — the company brings academic-grade causal AI into performance marketing. Churney raised a seed round in August 2023 led by SNÖ Ventures, with participation from Firestreak Ventures and angel investors including Walter Kortschak and Oliver Molander. PitchBook reports total funding of approximately $3.72M, and the team has grown to ~29 employees as of early 2026.
