Overview
Carrotcake AI is a web-based marketing intelligence platform that connects directly to Google Ads and Meta (Facebook/Instagram) accounts to deliver continuous, real-time analysis and prioritized recommendations. The product centralizes cross-channel ad performance, surfaces top-converting creatives and underperformers, detects anomalies (e.g., CPA spikes, CTR drops, ad fatigue), and provides AI-generated next steps to reallocate budget, refresh creatives, or adjust targeting. It also offers competitor ad monitoring, audience insights, and branded client reporting—making it particularly useful for agencies, multi-location franchises, and in-house marketing teams that need multi-account visibility and fast, actionable guidance rather than raw dashboards.
