We develop the Mixture Adaptive Design (MAD), a new experimental design for multi-armed bandit experiments that produces powerful and anytime-valid inference on the ATE for \emph{any} bandit algorithm of the experimenter's choice, even those without probabilistic treatment assignment.

Phased releases are a common strategy in the technology industry for gradually releasing new products or updates through a sequence of A/B tests in which the number of treated units gradually grows until full deployment or deprecation.

To quantify the impact of such a policy change, researchers often use synthetic control methods for estimating causal effects when a subset of units receive a single persistent treatment, and the rest are unaffected by the change.
