We spend about $12K/month across Google Search and Meta retargeting for our DTC skincare brand. I need to automatically pause any ad set with a CPA over $35 and shift that budget to whatever is converting under $20.

I'll connect to both your Google Ads and Meta Ads accounts through their APIs. Setting up hourly performance checks with automatic pause/reallocation rules now.

Ad Platform APIs Connected

Google Ads + Meta Ads — hourly sync active

Also, don't pause anything that has been running for less than 48 hours — it needs time to exit the learning phase. And send me a Slack message before any budget move over $200.

Got it. Added a 48-hour minimum runtime guard and a $200 approval threshold. Moves under $200 happen automatically; anything larger pings you in Slack first with the campaign details and recommended action.

Budget Rules Configured

$35 CPA pause · $200 approval threshold · 48hr guard

Can I get a daily summary of what changed and overall ROAS by channel?

Every morning at 8am you will get a digest showing: paused campaigns (with reason), budget moves, ROAS by channel, and top/bottom 3 ad sets by CPA. All linked back to the source dashboards if you want to dig deeper.

Key features for ad campaign management

Cross-platform budget optimization

Monitors Google Ads and Meta simultaneously, shifting spend toward the highest-performing campaigns across both platforms in real time.

Automatic campaign pausing

Pauses underperforming ad sets when they cross your CPA or ROAS thresholds — with configurable minimum runtime guards to avoid premature kills.

Approval workflows for large moves

Budget reallocations above your threshold trigger a Slack notification with details and a one-click approve/reject — so you stay in control of big decisions.

Daily performance digests

Automated morning report showing ROAS by channel, budget changes, top and bottom performers, and spend pacing against your monthly target.

Historical backtesting

Run your new rules against past campaign data to see projected impact before activating them on live spend.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ad campaign management.

Yes. Adaptive connects to both platforms via their APIs and manages them from one unified workflow. You can set different rules for each platform or apply the same thresholds across both.

Not if you do not want it to. You can set minimum runtime guards (like 48 hours) so Adaptive waits for campaigns to stabilize before evaluating performance against your thresholds.

Adaptive checks performance on the interval you set — hourly is the default. If a campaign crosses your CPA or spend threshold, it pauses immediately on the next check or sends you an approval request depending on your rules.

Yes. You set a dollar threshold (like $200) and any reallocation above that amount sends a Slack message with the details. Adaptive waits for your approval before executing the move.

Daily digests with ROAS by channel, top/bottom performers by CPA, budget changes made, and pacing against your monthly spend target. You can also request weekly summaries with trend analysis.

Absolutely. Rules are written in plain English — "pause anything with CPA over $35" — and you can update them anytime without touching code or waiting on engineering.
