## Rules and audits

**Birch.** Its pricing page is headed "Birch (formerly Revealbot)". Automated rules and strategies come with Pro, not Essential. Essential is $49/month at the same spend level. The price follows your monthly ad spend across all connected accounts. Compare it with Madgicx in [Madgicx vs Revealbot](/compare/madgicx-vs-revealbot).

**Madgicx.** Its AI Marketer audits a Meta account and suggests next steps. The pricing page asks for your monthly ad spend and says to see the price inside the app.

**Meta's own rules.** Meta Ads Manager can turn campaigns, ad sets or ads on or off, adjust a budget or manual bid, and send you a notification. For simple rules you may not need a paid tool.

## Google Ads and measurement

**Adalysis** lists 100+ audit checks, budget tracking, Performance Max data and unlimited Google and Microsoft accounts and users on every plan. **Optmyzr** lists Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, LinkedIn and Yahoo! Japan ads. See the [best AI tools for Google Ads](/best/best-ai-tools-for-google-ads).

**Triple Whale** has a free plan with 10 users, first and last click attribution and 12 months of data, plus its Moby AI assistant.

## Creative analysis and chat

**Motion** reads your own ad accounts. Starter includes AI tags, an ad leaderboard, creative analytics and MCP access. MCP is a plug that lets Claude or ChatGPT read your data. See the [best AI agents for advertising](/best/best-ai-agents-for-advertising) for how to connect safely.

## A worked example

Say your break-even cost per purchase is INR 800. You launch 20 new ads, each on INR 1,000 a day. Say 12 never get a purchase.

- **No rule:** you let each run a week. 12 ads x 7 days x INR 1,000 = INR 84,000 spent on ads that never sold.
- **With a rule:** pause any ad that spends INR 2,400 (three times break-even) with no purchase. 12 ads x INR 2,400 = INR 28,800.

The rule saves INR 55,200. Check rule results daily in the first week, because a bad rule can pause a good ad. Read [how to know when to turn off an ad](/guides/how-to-know-when-to-kill-an-ad) before you set numbers.

## How to choose

1. Write your rules on paper first. Then see whether Meta's own rules cover them.
2. Price each tool at your real monthly spend. Several charge by spend tier.
3. Ask who approves changes to live budgets.
4. Add one tool at a time and judge it for a month.

We make Marxx. It reads your connected Meta ad account in full, runs an account audit, splits fatigue into fatiguing now and within 7 days, and sends alerts and digests. It also reads Google Ads spend, campaigns and search terms through its connection. See more in the [best ad reporting tools](/best/best-ad-reporting-tools).

## FAQ

### What is the first AI tool a performance marketer should try?

A chat app connected to your ad data, plus Meta's own automated rules. Both are low cost and easy to undo.

### Is Birch the same as Revealbot?

Yes. Birch's pricing page is headed "Birch (formerly Revealbot)". See [Revealbot alternatives](/alternatives/revealbot-alternatives).

### Can AI run my ad account without me?

We would not leave it alone. Set limits on budget changes and keep a person approving them.
