Quick start
New to Adlyse? This walks you from signing up to your first real decisions — what’s wasting money, where you have room to grow, and a report you can share — in about five minutes.
Create your workspace#
Sign up at adlyse.com, pick a name for your workspace, and you’re in as its first member. You can invite the rest of your team later from Admin → Team.
Connect an ad account#
Open Ad Accounts in the sidebar and click Connect, then choose your platform. You’ll sign in through the platform’s own secure login, then pick exactly which accounts to bring in:
- Google Ads — sign in with the Google account that manages your ads. You can select one or more of the accounts it has access to, including child accounts under a manager account.
- Meta Ads — sign in with a Facebook account that has business access, then choose which ad accounts to include.
- Microsoft Ads — sign in with your Microsoft account and pick the accounts you want to track.
TikTok is read-only today
You can connect TikTok to see its performance alongside everything else, but Adlyse can’t yet make changes (pause, budget edits) on TikTok the way it can on Google, Meta, and Microsoft.
As soon as an account is connected, Adlyse starts pulling in the last 30 days of your campaigns, ad sets, ads, and the changes made to them. The first full sync usually takes 2–5 minutes per account.
Work your first decisions#
Go to Home. Adlyse checks your accounts after each sync, so once the first check has run you’ll see your decision queue: a ranked list of proposals, each with the money at stake and the reasoning attached.
- Money at risk — spend that isn’t earning its keep.
- Growth headroom — where you’re capped by budget rather than demand.
- Needs you — anything Adlyse found but can’t act on without a permission or a fix from you.
Click any row to read the evidence, then approve it — you’ll see a before-and-after preview before anything is applied. Nothing changes without you.
Meanwhile Ad accounts scores each connected account with its ABI health grade and estimated waste, and Explorer is where you drill into the campaigns and ads behind any number.
Generate your first report#
Go to Reports → Create Report and pick the Weekly Check-in template. Choose one or more accounts and a 7-day window, then hit Generate. Adlyse writes the PDF in the background — the status moves from pending to rendering to ready in about 30 seconds.
Your report includes an executive summary, the health and wasted-spend numbers, wins and concerns, top campaigns, AI insights, and where to focus next.
Bring in your team#
Invite the rest of your team from Admin → Team → Invite members. Everyone sees the same scores, reports, and decisions for your workspace.
Put something on autopilot#
Once you trust the queue, stop being the trigger. Open AI Studio → Schedules, pick the Weekly Budget Review preset, and let it propose reallocations into your queue every Monday. See AI Studio for when to use a schedule, an agent, or a workflow.
