Switch from Polar Analytics to CostRadar

Last checked 22 October 2026.

Polar Analytics is a broad analytics platform. CostRadar is a smaller product on purpose: true net profit, not a connector catalog. Checked 22 October 2026, the Shopify listing and Polar's terms still described Core from $750 per month under a sales bracket, scaling after that.

What does not move

Polar's pixel, purchase events sent to Meta, and Klaviyo audience pushes do not move into CostRadar. CostRadar does not send purchase events to Meta. If that signal is why you pay for Polar, stay.

Map the metrics

Polar Analytics	CostRadar	What changes
Core from $750/mo, price follows sales	$29.99 or $49.99 per store	No sales bracket
Many data sources	Orders, fees, product cost, ad spend, shipping	A shorter list, on purpose
Pixel and events to Meta	Not included	Keep Polar or another tool for that
Their AI on Polar data	Profit Agent on Premium, plus MCP from Advanced	Questions about your profit, not their warehouse
Built for scaling brands	Self-serve, including a free plan	No sales cycle to see the number

First day and first week

Connect one store. On day one you should see profit for the synced orders, not Polar's blended dashboards. In the first week, decide which questions were actually profit questions. Leave those in CostRadar. Leave connector and pixel work in Polar if you still need it.

Pricing difference

CostRadar Free is $0 for 100 orders a month. Advanced is $29.99 per store per month. Premium is $49.99 per store per month. Yearly billing is 20% off. Paid plans include a 14-day trial. There is no per-order fee and no GMV fee.

FAQ

Is CostRadar a Polar alternative for a small brand?

If the job is profit after fees and product cost, yes. If the job is a $750-and-up analytics stack with a pixel, no.
