## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of AppsFlyer you could make: reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
