Set Your GA4 Data Free
Simplify, enhance and automate your GA4 data at scale.
The simplest way to transform and liberate your GA4 data
Decode GA4 transforms and enhances incoming GA4 data, preparing it for fast, efficient analysis. It integrates with your existing BigQuery set-up and can be configured and deployed in minutes.
Works seamlessly with the storage, transformation, & BI tools you are already using
Works with your current stack
Working with GA4 Data is Challenging
To unlock your data for analysis, visualization, augmentation, and automation, you first need to restructure it. With this comes many complications.
Hybrid data structures make SQL queries difficult and unnesting complicated
Hand-crafted queries require painful, verbose transformations that complicate downstream processes
Constant maintenance as bespoke solutions need updates and tweaking when data changes
Decision paralysis - most companies struggle with how to get data into the right form
Time-consuming development where teams spend weeks building custom solutions instead of analyzing data
Inefficient data processing - The full, raw dataset is reprocessed every configuration change, resulting in unnecessary cost
How Decode GA4 Helps
Built for data professionals who need reliable, efficient analytics – Decode GA4 automatically models and transforms your data in one step – restructuring it for optimal analysis. This removes complexity and speeds up your workflow. Check out our docs for technical info.
Automate Everything
Extract complex nested data automatically without manual intervention. Say goodbye to complex SQL queries and schema management headaches.
Schema Evolution
Automatically adapt to source schema changes. Never worry about data pipeline breaks when GA4 introduces new parameters or structures.
Native BigQuery
Built entirely within Google BigQuery ecosystem. No external dependencies, seamless integration with your existing data workflows.
Cross-Cloud Ready
Export to AWS S3 or Azure Blob Storage for robust cross-cloud workflows. Your data, wherever you need it.
Cost Optimization
Reduce storage costs with intelligent compression and partitioning. Pay less for BigQuery storage while maintaining query performance.
Zero Maintenance
Deploy once, run forever. Metadata-driven incremental processing ensures each date partition is processed exactly once with minimal overhead.

FAQ
How do you install Decode GA4?
How much does Decode GA4 cost?
Is there a trial period?
There is no trial period as there is no monthly fee and no fee to install Decode GA4. Cost is only incurred when using Decode GA4 to transform and export raw source GA4 data.
Do I need to use Dataform or DBT?
Will it alter my raw data in any way?
No. Our decoder adds a new dataset to your BigQuery project that you can access directly for downstream analysis, but you can always go back and reference your raw data or work on that data directly.
What happens to my data if I stop using Decode Data's Decoder?
The historical data that you have decoded remains intact and accessible in your BigQuery, but if you lose permissions to the Decode GA4 proprietary functions, it will cease to decode any future data.
