Track competitor Google Ads and get AI insights by email

The system scans Google for your target keywords, captures competitor ads, and emails you an AI-written summary.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; runs once per each target keyword.

The problem it solves

You know your competitors are running ads, but you have no easy way to see what they're saying, testing, or spending on without manually searching and screenshotting results all day. By the time you notice a pattern, the campaign may already be over.

Who it fits

PPC managers and marketers who track competitor advertising strategy.

How it works

  1. You provide a list of keywords likely to trigger ads
  2. The system searches Google for ads on each keyword
  3. It captures and organizes the ads that appear
  4. AI analyzes the ad copy and pulls out key insights
  5. You receive an email report summarizing what competitors are running
What you get

Ad campaigns you know about first

You get a plain-language rundown of the competitor ads showing up for your keywords, delivered to your inbox on schedule.

What you get

An email report summarizing competitor ad copy and AI-generated insights, plus a saved record of every ad found.

What you need

A Bright Data account, an OpenAI account, Google Sheets, and Gmail.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
