Connect Google Ads, set your profit targets and guardrails, and Gnos starts analysing your account. Autonomy comes later, and deliberately slowly: Gnos changes nothing in your account until you switch live changes on, and it moves in smaller steps for the first fortnight after you do. Here is exactly what happens.
Choose "Connect account" and authenticate with Google. OpenClicks uses the official Google Ads API, so no password is ever shared with us, only an encrypted OAuth token that you can revoke from your Google account at any time.
If you manage several accounts under one manager account, you pick which ones to activate.
Gnos pulls your campaigns, their daily budgets, and the spend, clicks, conversions and conversion value recorded against each one, then builds a baseline of what normal looks like for you.
Everything comes through the official API. Nothing is scraped, and your account is only ever read until you approve a change.
Tell Gnos what success means: target CPA, minimum ROAS, or profit per ad dollar once your cost of goods and returns rate are in. Then set the limits it must stay inside: how far a daily budget may move in one day, the floor no campaign drops below, which campaigns it may never touch, and what always needs a human.
Autonomy is set per campaign, so a proven campaign can run further ahead than an experiment.
From here Gnos keeps working, recalculating what each campaign earns per ad dollar every day and proposing where the daily budget should sit tomorrow. Every proposal arrives with the reasoning behind it in plain English, and every applied change is logged and reversible.
A morning briefing tells you what changed, what Gnos did, and what needs you. Override anything from the dashboard.
Illustrative: not a live screenshot
Overnight Gnos reviewed 18 campaigns and proposed moving budget out of 4 that are losing money into 3 that are earning. Projected gain if approved: $240 a day. It needs your approval before anything moves.
No. Gnos takes on one repetitive job (working out what each campaign earns per ad dollar every day and deciding where the daily budget should sit), so the people on your team spend their time on strategy, keywords and creative. It proposes; a person decides.
Standard access through Google OAuth, the same level you would grant an agency managing your account. Gnos reads your campaigns and their daily performance, and the only thing it ever writes back is a campaign's daily budget. It does not read your billing details or payment methods. You can revoke access from your Google account at any time.
Yes. Every applied change is written to an audit trail with the values before and after, so any individual change can be rolled back.
We are in beta and have not run long enough to promise a number, and we would rather not invent one. What we can say is that the first analysis ranks your campaigns by profit per ad dollar within minutes of connecting, so you can judge the quality of the proposals on your own account before changing anything.
It needs enough conversion data to model your account, so it is most useful above roughly $2,000 a month in spend. Below that there is usually too little signal for the proposals to be meaningful.
No. The campaign and performance data we read from your account is never shared with other customers or used to train models that serve them. This is set out in the Privacy Policy.
Nothing. We do not collect a card during beta, and there is no trial that converts into a charge. Pricing is set at launch, and beta members get three months free. The Terms of Service cover this.
No card required, and nothing changes in your account until you approve it.
