Inside the platform · live today

The surfaces Nova reads and writes.

Nova is not a black box. Every decision shows up in the same operator-grade platform AdAdvisor customers run on today. You can audit, override, or co-pilot any time.

The audience heatmap she scans.

Nova reads the audience × creative heatmap to decide which combos to scale, which to retire, and which to test next. The same view your operators use today.

The whole job

Six things at once, every hour.

Creative generation

Drafts and runs new ad creatives from your product photos and brand voice. Tests angles weekly, kills losers without asking.

Pixel + CAPI health

Audits your Meta pixel, server events, and event match quality on a schedule. Flags drops before they cost you optimization.

UTM hygiene

Watches the UTMs landing in your GA and Shopify. Tells you when a campaign is bleeding attribution.

Shopify sync

Pulls products, margins, and inventory. She knows what is in stock before she scales.

Competitor watch

Monitors your top 5 competitors in the Meta Ad Library. Surfaces new angles to test in response.

Budget pacing

Holds your monthly cap day by day. Reallocates across campaigns to hit target CPA without overspending.

Trust gradient

Two modes. You pick the pace.

Most operators do not hand over the budget on day one. Nova does not ask you to. Start in Suggest. Graduate to Autopilot when she earns it.

Default mode

Suggest mode

You stay in the loop. She does the thinking.

Nova drafts every change as a proposed action in her workspace. You approve, reject, or edit before anything touches the account. Rejections train her.

  • Every action queued, scored, explained
  • Approve in one tap. Reject + reason in two.
  • Your reasons become Nova's house rules.

When you trust her

Autopilot mode

Hands fully off. She only pings when blocked.

Flip the switch and Nova executes inside your guardrails. She only emails or notifies you when she hits something she cannot decide alone.

She pings you for things like

  • Wants to breach a budget cap on Black Friday
  • Needs a product image to build a creative
  • Detects a pixel break that affects optimization
Agent-trust questions

Fair questions. Direct answers.

Not by default. Nova ships in Suggest mode, which means every change (budget moves, kills, new ads, audience tweaks) sits in your approval queue with her reasoning. Nothing executes until you tap approve. You opt into Autopilot once you trust her, and even then she works inside the hard caps and guardrails you set during onboarding.
Two safeguards. First, your guardrails. Daily and monthly spend ceilings, geo restrictions, and "must approve" thresholds are non-negotiable for Nova, so the blast radius of any single decision is bounded. Second, your unit economics are wired into every move, so she will not scale past your break-even ROAS or kill an ad that is still profitable. If a decision goes sideways, you can roll it back in one click and the reason feeds her future judgment.
Advantage+ optimizes inside one campaign Meta already runs for you. Nova operates the whole account. She decides which campaigns to launch, which to pause, what creatives to make, where budget should sit at the portfolio level, and whether your tracking is even healthy enough for Meta's optimizer to work. She is your media buyer. Advantage+ is one tactic she might use.
She generates from your real product photos, brand voice, and the angles that score in her competitive analysis. Anything she ships in Suggest mode you review first. In Autopilot, you set a quality bar (with examples of what you will and will not approve), and if she cannot meet it she pings you instead of shipping it.
About 30 minutes of your time across two sittings. Sitting one: connect Meta and Shopify, paste your URL, answer a short interview. Nova then disappears for a few hours to crawl your site, scrape competitor ads, and draft your positioning brief and unit economics. Sitting two: you review the brief, set guardrails, and she begins in Suggest mode. Autopilot is a toggle you can flip whenever you are ready.
The first 100 founding members are onboarding through Q2 and Q3 of 2026. Applications are reviewed in 48 hours. We are prioritizing accounts where we have the highest confidence Nova can improve performance from day one, not first-come-first-served.
