Ad teams juggle campaign setup and reporting across platforms

Ad buyers and agencies describe setting up campaigns through complicated spreadsheets and switching between platform-specific tools. Some also struggle to see whether spend is producing conversions or which keyword phrases drove clicks. The evidence points to a broad ad-operations problem, though publisher-side partner bookings are a distinct adjacent need.

For ad buyers and agency campaign managers. Mentioned from Mar 2020 to Jul 2026 on Bluesky, GitHub and Hacker News.
