Flag ad spend off budget pace
Replace manual ad spend tracking with a daily media pacing check that compares month to date spend against each campaign's budget, flags campaigns running over or under pace, and posts them to your paid media team.
Copied
Every morning, the automation reads each campaign's monthly budget from the media budget sheet in [budget spreadsheet or planning tool, e.g. Google Sheets, Excel] and pulls month to date spend for those campaigns from [advertising platforms, e.g. Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Microsoft Advertising]. It compares each campaign's spend against the share of its budget expected by that day of the month and flags campaigns that are over or under pace beyond the allowed tolerance. It posts the flagged campaigns with their spend, budget, and pace to the paid media channel in [team chat platform, e.g. Slack, Microsoft Teams] and logs the day's figures in the media budget sheet in [budget spreadsheet or planning tool].

Problem
Paid media teams check spend by hand, logging into each ad platform, exporting month to date figures, and comparing them against budgets in a spreadsheet. The check runs only when someone has time, so campaigns overspend before anyone notices, underspent budgets go unused, and month end figures surprise finance.

Impact
Spend problems surface while there is still time in the month to correct them, so budgets land on plan instead of ending in overspend or unused funds.

Generate timely content for every channel
An AI agent scans industry news feeds and social trends daily for relevant topics, decides which ideas are worth pursuing, and generates content tailored to each format and channel, then publishes each piece to the CMS and social scheduling tool. It chooses its approach based on the topic and audience rather than following one fixed template.

Compile market research reports
When a team member submits a research request form with a target market, research focus, and time frame, an AI agent runs web searches, decides which sources are credible and relevant, and keeps searching until the question is covered. It synthesizes the findings into a structured research document saved to the shared drive and sends the link to the requester.
