TL;DR
- Dots are always-on agents. They can ask Metaflow to watch Google Ads around the clock. They cannot see the account on their own.
- No first-party Google Ads plugin exists. Add the Metaflow plugin in ChatGPT. The Dot inherits it.
- Custom Rules gate the Dot. Metaflow gates the spend. Budget, bids, and pauses wait for you.
- Use a daily spend scan, a weekly wasted-spend audit, and a monthly strategy review. Copy the prompts below into the Dot.
What a Dot brings
A Dot keeps working after you close the tab. That only helps Google Ads if Metaflow can see the connected account. Management starts after the Google Ads connection. There is no native plugin to skip that.
Managing ads from a Dot is the case the decision most often tells you to leave unattended.
Connect, then manage
| Step | Where | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Connect Google Ads | Metaflow | Live campaigns, terms, budgets |
| Add Metaflow | ChatGPT Settings → Apps | The Dot can start the work |
| Brief the Dot | Dot chat | Ads questions go to Metaflow |
| Approve writes | Metaflow | Spend does not move until you say yes |
The engine is AI agents for Google Ads and performance marketing agents.
Copy-paste jobs
Hand these to the Dot. Each one is a Metaflow job.
Hand this to Metaflow. Do not edit the account yourself.
Daily: spend vs budget, CPA vs target, any campaign that spent with zero conversions yesterday.
Weekly: search terms with spend and no conversions; group them into negative themes.
Do not change bids, budgets, or status. Draft the change and wait for my approval in Metaflow.Ask Metaflow for a wasted-spend audit on the last 30 days.
Return negative-keyword themes, not a dump of every search term.
I will approve the negatives in Metaflow.Ask Metaflow which campaigns should get the next $100 a day and which should lose it.
Use the last 14 days of CPA and conversion volume.
Do not move budget yourself.Cadence
| When | Job | Who acts |
|---|---|---|
| Daily | Spend, CPA, zero-conversion spend | Metaflow reads. You approve a pause. |
| Weekly | Search terms, RSA strength, PMax brand leakage | Metaflow drafts. You approve. |
| Monthly | Bid strategy vs conversion volume | You decide. Metaflow does not switch Target CPA on its own. |
Every write is allow, approve, or block. Budget is not allow.
Frequently asked questions
Can the Dot pause a campaign while I sleep?
It can ask Metaflow to draft the pause. The pause waits for you unless you already approved that exact action in Metaflow.
Do I need a custom MCP server?
No. The Metaflow plugin is the path. Do not point the Dot at another ads connector.
Where does the live data come from?
The Google Ads account connected in Metaflow. The Dot does not hold a Google API key.
