What Sets Fairing Apart
1. Measurement
Attribution measured in revenue
Both Fairing and Kno ask customers how they heard about you. Fairing connects every response to the order behind it, rolls channels up into revenue, AOV, and lifetime value, and extrapolates results across all orders so non-responders are part of the picture. Podcast, TV, and influencer stop being a guess and start being a number you can defend next to your last-click reports.
2. Simplicity
One Question Stream, every plan
Kno prices by survey count and gates capability by tier: one survey with three questions on Starter, then more surveys, audiences, and active integrations as you move up to the $119 and $299 plans. Fairing has one Question Stream with unlimited questions, and every feature ships on every plan. Pricing scales with order volume only: free up to 100 orders a month, then $15 to $199.
3. Intelligence
Answers your AI can act on
Clean inputs make clean data. Fairing's auto-suggest keeps follow-up answers structured as customers type, so responses stay classifiable instead of piling up as free text. From there the data goes wherever decisions happen: 20+ integrations on every plan, weekly AI insights, and the Fairing MCP server that lets Claude query your attribution data directly.
