How it works

Three steps. Nothing touched until you say so.

The holdout measures lift from day one, so by the time automation is armed you already have a baseline to judge us against.

2Propose-only

30 days propose-only

You watch every recommendation in the daily report before anything is touched.

3Armed in stages

Arm automation in stages

Bids, then harvesting, then negatives, then budgets. Each on evidence, each reversible.

We never take a percentage of ad spend. A vendor paid on spend is paid to grow your spend. We're paid flat, to grow your profit.
