By setting up StackAdapt as a Segment destination, your Segment events will be forwarded to [StackAdapt](https://www.stackadapt.com/){:target="_blank"}. This allows you to generate retargeting and lookalike audiences, track conversions, and measure return on ad spend using your Segment events - bypassing the need to install the StackAdapt pixel on your website and write code to send events to StackAdapt.
