# AI Agent: What is theGoogle Ads Reviewer and how do you use it?

## What This Maybe* AI Agent Actually Does

Google Ads Reviewer is built to turn day-to-day Google Ads performance data into clear, prioritised actions. It typically works through three task states:

- Draft: it pulls and organises performance signals spend, conversions, CPA, CTR, impression share into a clean set of findings.
- Review: it stress-tests those findings, compares time ranges, and ranks opportunities by expected impact and effort.
- Paused: it stops when it needs confirmation, missing inputs, or access before it can give recommendations that are safe to act on.
For governance, Google Ads Reviewer keeps your work auditable by making recommendations that are traceable to metrics and date ranges, and by pausing rather than guessing when information is incomplete.

## What This Maybe* AI Agent Does Not Do

Google Ads Reviewer does not:

- Make changes in your Google Ads account without explicit permission and a clear scope.
- Invent results when it cannot access the right account, customer ID, campaign, or date range.
- Replace strategic decision-making, brand approvals, or compliance requirements for regulated industries.
- Guarantee outcomes such as a specific CPA reduction, as performance depends on auction dynamics, landing pages, tracking, and budgets.
## What Can Google Ads Reviewer Do?

### Account-level performance review and opportunity finding

- Review an account {account_name} for {date_range} and list the top 5 CPA reduction opportunities.
- Audit account-wide performance for {date_range} and summarise what is driving cost increases.
- Compare performance for {date_range_1} vs {date_range_2} across all campaigns and highlight what changed most.
- Isolate brand vs non-brand campaigns {brand_campaign_name}, {nonbrand_campaign_name} for {date_range} and compare CPA and volume.
- Review the top 3 campaigns by spend in {date_range} and produce a prioritised 7-day action plan.
### Campaign diagnostics and budget allocation

- Pull key metrics for campaigns in {customer_id} and recommend which {campaign_name} should get more budget based on efficiency.
- Identify the worst-performing campaigns in {date_range} by {metric} and propose specific fixes.
- Show clicks, cost, conversions, and CPA for each campaign in {date_range} and rank them best to worst.
- Find campaigns with high spend but low conversions in {date_range} and explain likely causes.
- Spot campaigns with strong conversion rate but low volume in {date_range} and suggest how to safely scale them.
- Identify campaigns with low CTR in {date_range} and explain where targeting or keyword intent may be off.
- Check campaigns with low impression share signals in {date_range} and explain whether budget or rank is the likely constraint.
### Campaign and ad group structure hygiene

- Review {campaign_name} and assess whether the structure is too broad or too fragmented.
- List all ad groups inside {campaign_name} and flag naming or organisation issues that reduce clarity.
- For {customer_id}, list active vs paused campaigns and flag anything that looks unintentionally turned off.
### Keyword and match type performance optimisation

- For ad groups {ad_group_list}, pull keyword performance for {date_range} and recommend what to pause or tighten.
- Analyse keyword match type performance EXACT vs PHRASE vs BROAD for {campaign_name} in {date_range}.
- Find keywords with high clicks but low conversions in {date_range} and suggest how to restructure into cleaner ad groups.
- Find keywords with conversions but high cost per conversion in {date_range} and recommend bid or target adjustments to test.
- Review keywords in {campaign_name} for {date_range} and highlight duplicates or overlap across ad groups that could be causing inefficiency.
## Task Example Walkthroughs

### Walkthrough: Top 5 CPA reduction opportunities account review

Prompt Used

“In Google Ads, review my account {account_name} for {date_range} and list the top 5 CPA reduction opportunities.”

Task State

Review or Paused if access, conversion definitions, or tracking context are missing .

Output

A ranked list of five opportunities, each with:

- Where it shows up campaigns, ad groups, keywords
- The metric signal CPA, conversion rate, CPC, impression share, spend
- The likely cause intent mismatch, match type looseness, budget/rank constraint, structure overlap
- A specific next action what to reduce, tighten, test, or reallocate first
The Problem This Solves

Teams often know CPA is high, but not which levers to pull first. This turns analysis into a focused, defensible plan.

What the Google Ads Reviewer Does

It scans performance by spend and efficiency, surfaces waste, and prioritises fixes that are typically quickest to validate.

What Comes Back

A short action list designed for execution, plus notes on what evidence supports each recommendation.

When the Google Ads Reviewer Pauses

- No {account_name} access or the wrong account is selected
- {date_range} is missing or ambiguous
- Conversions are unclear primary vs secondary, lead quality, offline imports
- Tracking issues are detected sudden conversion drop, inconsistent CVR patterns
How to Start

Provide the account name, date range, and confirm which conversion action is the KPI for example, “Qualified lead” vs “All leads” .

### Walkthrough: Match type performance analysis EXACT vs PHRASE vs BROAD

Prompt Used

“In Google Ads, analyse keyword match type performance EXACT vs PHRASE vs BROAD for {campaign_name} in {date_range}.”

Task State

Draft → Review.

Output

A match-type breakdown showing:

- Spend, conversions, CPA, conversion rate, CPC
- A plain-English interpretation of what the mix implies
- A set of testable recommendations where to tighten, where to expand safely, where negatives or structure changes may help
The Problem This Solves

Match type sprawl can quietly inflate CPA. This isolates whether broad reach is paying off or just buying noise.

What the Google Ads Reviewer Does

It compares efficiency by match type and flags patterns such as broad absorbing spend without conversion lift, or exact being profitable but volume-limited.

What Comes Back

A clean summary plus recommended experiments, framed as controlled changes rather than sweeping rewrites.

When the Google Ads Reviewer Pauses

- {campaign_name} does not exist or naming is inconsistent
- The campaign does not use keywords for example, some campaign types
- Not enough data in {date_range} to make a statistically sensible call
How to Start

Share the campaign name, date range, and whether you are optimising for CPA, ROAS, or conversion volume.

## Governance & Trust

### Paused Is Not Failure

A pause is the agent protecting your account. It is designed to stop before it creates misleading conclusions or recommends risky changes.

### What Triggers a Pause

- Missing identifiers: customer_id, account_name, campaign_name, date_range
- Ambiguous success metrics: which conversion action matters, lead quality definitions
- Insufficient data volume or abnormal tracking signals
- Conflicts in naming or structure that prevent reliable grouping
### What You See When It Pauses

- A short explanation of what is missing
- The exact fields needed for example, customer ID, campaign name, conversion action
- Optional choices if multiple paths are valid for example, “optimise for CPA” vs “maximise volume”
### How to Resolve a Pause

- Provide the missing fields and confirm the KPI conversion action
- If relevant, confirm whether brand and non-brand are separated by naming, labels, or dedicated campaigns
- If results look odd, confirm any recent changes budget shifts, tracking edits, landing page updates
