What problem does it solve?

It helps advertisers diagnose why Google Ads isn’t performing by identifying waste, tracking failures, and quality bottlenecks that lead to inefficient spend and misleading reporting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read-only audit scorecard: Produces a health score and a prioritized fix list without changing the account.
  • Conversion tracking verification first: Flags broken conversion tracking, attribution issues, and mislinked conversion actions so subsequent metrics aren’t based on bad data.
  • Search-term leak detection: Finds wasted spend from broad-match or irrelevant queries (including cases with spend and zero conversions).
  • Quality/landing-page guidance: Highlights low quality score areas by keyword/ad-group dimension where available and turns them into actionable remediation.

Use case example: You export Google Ads data to CSV, then use this audit to find broad-match leakage and non-converting keyword waste, and receive a ranked list of the highest estimated monthly savings fixes.

Quick Start
