// COST-PLUS, EXPLAINED

We show you exactly what your ads actually cost.

Every charge on your bill has a transparent compute cost and a transparent margin. Like an itemized receipt, not a mystery agency fee.

Pricing without the bullshit.

Traditional agencies charge you 50-100% of your ad spend with no breakdown. We charge you what each task actually costs us, plus a flat margin. You see every line.

  • Compute cost + 100% markup.Our cost is pennies. Yours is a few dollars. Compare that to $50-150/hr at an agency.
  • Pay only when we work.No flat retainer. Slow month? Smaller bill. Busy season? You decide what to scale up.
  • No hidden percentage on ad spend.Agencies skim 15-20% of your media budget. We charge a flat 1.5%. Period.
  • Set spend caps.Tell us "never bill me more than $X this month" and we'll ask before going over.

Customers who fired their agency.

"I was paying $2,400/mo to a 'marketing agency' that sent me a PDF every Monday. Now I get real answers in 30 seconds and pay $180. Same results."

Why did my CPA spike yesterday?
Your conversion tracking on the contact form broke around 3pm yesterday — pixel stopped firing on submissions. I've already flagged it. Your actual CPA is still tracking at $22, well below your $35 target. Want me to send the fix to your developer?
Yes please. Also generate 5 new creatives for the spring promo.
On it. Pausing affected campaigns until tracking is fixed (~1 hour). Generating 5 spring creatives now — ready for your approval in 4 minutes. Based on your past performance, leaning into the testimonial angle that did 2.4x ROAS last month.
// FAQ

Common questions.

How is this different from agency tools like Madgicx or AdCreative.ai?+
Those are tools you use. We're a service we run for you. The whole point of our product is you don't have to log in, push buttons, or learn anything. You connect your ad accounts and the AI handles everything from there — strategy, creative, optimization, the entire job.
What if I don't have ad accounts yet?+
We'll create them for you during onboarding. The whole setup takes under 5 minutes including ad account creation, Meta Business Manager, and Google Ads.
How does the cost-plus pricing actually work?+
$49/mo platform fee covers your account and 24/7 chat. Everything else is metered: $25 per active campaign, $4 per creative, $12 per video, plus 1.5% of ad spend optimized. Use less, pay less. Use more, pay more. No surprise bills — set a monthly cap and we'll ask before going over.
Will the AI mess up my ads?+
It can't. You set spend caps, daily budgets, and approval rules. In "approve mode," nothing goes live without your okay. In "full auto," the AI still operates within your guardrails. We use the same APIs every agency uses — there's no special risk.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. No contracts, no minimums, no cancellation fees. You keep all your campaigns and ad accounts on the way out.
Is my data safe?+
Yes. We use Meta's official MCP server and the Google Ads API with OAuth. We never store your credentials. Your data stays in your accounts — we just have permission to operate.

Stop paying for the agency. Pay for the work.
