Key insights:
UA managers live in dashboards (Meta, TikTok, Google, AppLovin) – numbers rarely match.
Creative naming conventions = chaos.
Spotting fatigue & geo differences takes too much manual work.
All creatives across networks are grouped automatically by similarity, not file names.
Cross-network & cross-geo comparisons in seconds.
KPIs tracked: CTR, CPI, ROAS D0 → D30.
Early-warning signals for creative fatigue (dropping CTRs + rising CPIs).

Impact:
Saves hours weekly for UA managers.
Empowers creative teams by showing why an ad is dying.
Enables faster refresh cycles & geo-specific creative strategies.

Takeaway:
Data is your superpower. This dashboard is your ultimate power-up.
