The main Opteo alternatives are Optmyzr for more ad platforms, Birch for rules across Meta and Google, Google Ads scripts for no extra cost, and Ryze for an AI agent that applies changes when you approve them in Slack. Opteo Basic costs $129 a month for 10 accounts (checked 6 Nov 2026).

## What Opteo does well

Opteo is built for Google Ads. It sends alerts to Slack: Unexpected Changes, Zero Impressions, Zero Conversions, Budget, Performance Records and New Improvements. You can use one team channel or a channel per account. Pushing improvements from Slack is marked "Coming Soon".

| Basic | $129/month | 10 | $25,000 |
| Professional | $249/month | 25 | $100,000 |
| Agency | $499/month | 75 | $250,000 |

Teams look elsewhere when they also run Meta, LinkedIn or TikTok, when they want to act from Slack today, or when they want to save the monthly fee.

## Optmyzr

Optmyzr covers Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok ads, with KPI and performance alerts. It connects to Slack, Microsoft Teams and Zapier. It says "No changes without your approval, ever." Its prices were not in a form we could read, so see optmyzr.com/pricing. There is a 14-day trial.

## Birch

Birch, formerly Revealbot, runs rules on Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok, checked every 15 minutes, with 20+ actions. Slack comes with Essential and Pro. Essential is $49 a month ($540 billed yearly) and Pro is $99 a month ($1,090 billed yearly). Price depends on ad spend. See [Revealbot alternatives](/alternatives/revealbot-alternatives).

## Google Ads scripts

Scripts are short pieces of code that run inside Google Ads on a schedule. One can check yesterday's spend on each campaign and post to a Slack incoming webhook when a number looks wrong. You pay nothing extra, but someone has to write and maintain the code.

## Ryze

Ryze is an AI marketer for Google, Meta, TikTok and LinkedIn. In Slack it answers questions, runs audits and posts scheduled reports. Its recommendations carry Approve and Dismiss buttons, and Ryze says "Hit Approve in Slack, and the change goes live." Paid Ads is $89 a month and Agency is $279 a month with unlimited client workspaces. Its Slack page asks you to "Get early access".

## Marxx

We make Marxx. It reads Google Ads spend and search terms and your Meta account, and you can ask @Marxx about a client's results in that client's Slack channel. Ask us which Google Ads metrics its alerts can watch. See [Marxx in Slack](/features/slack).

## A worked example

Say you manage 12 Google Ads accounts with a combined spend of $30,000 a month.

1. Opteo Basic covers 10 accounts and $25,000, so it is too small.
2. Opteo Professional covers 25 accounts and $100,000: $249 a month.
3. Birch's price depends on spend, so get a quote at your real figure.
4. Scripts cost nothing extra but need a few hours to build and check.

Price each option at your real account count and spend, not the lowest tier.

## How to choose

1. **Google only?** Opteo or scripts fit. More platforms point to Optmyzr or Birch.
2. **Want to act from Slack?** Check each tool's approval rules. See [how to set up Meta ads alerts in Slack](/guides/how-to-set-up-meta-ads-alerts-in-slack) for a Meta example.
3. **Agency?** Count accounts and spend first. Read [AI tools for agencies](/best/best-ai-tools-for-agencies) too.
