# Google Ads API Performance Summaries — AI Integration

## Overview

Mark is developing custom AI tools that connect directly to the Google Ads API, enabling natural-language queries against live account data. The goal is to give account managers and strategists an AI-powered analyst that can surface insights, flag issues, and summarize performance without requiring manual data pulls.

This is part of a broader initiative to connect AI tooling to Asymmetric's core data sources — see also [[wiki/knowledge/seo/google-search-console-ai-integration]] for the parallel Search Console effort.

## How It Works

Rather than exporting data and feeding it to a general-purpose AI, these tools connect directly to the Google Ads API. This means the AI has access to live, structured account data and can answer questions in real time.

**Example queries the tool will support:**

- "Summarize performance for [client] over the last week."
- "Are conversions being reported properly?"
- "Is Google Tag Manager tagging everything correctly?"
- "Which campaigns are underperforming and why?"

The AI can reason across the data it retrieves — identifying patterns, anomalies, and gaps that a human reviewer might miss or deprioritize.

## Motivation

The American Extractions situation (discussed in the [2025-09-30 Ops Sync](raw/2025-09-30-ops-sync-90775978.md)) illustrated the cost of gaps in account monitoring: ads were not running for over a week despite explicit direction to get them live. An AI tool with direct API access could flag this kind of issue proactively — "ads in this campaign have had zero impressions for 7 days" — without relying on a human to notice.

More broadly, account managers are stretched across many clients. Automated performance summaries reduce the cognitive load of routine monitoring and free up time for higher-order work.

## Planned Integrations

| Data Source | Use Case |
|---|---|
| Google Ads API | Campaign performance summaries, conversion tracking audits, budget pacing |
| Google Search Console | SEO performance analysis, keyword trend summaries, crawl/indexing issues |

## Status

> As of 2025-09-30, Mark described this as "very close to having done." The Google Ads API integration is the primary focus; Google Search Console integration is planned to follow.
