Hero Marketer

Automations

Hero doesn't just flag it. It fixes it.

For the small set of issues where the fix is safe and reversible, Hero acts on its own. Every action is one click to undo, capped per day, and previewed over 30 days before you turn it on.

01 · The problem

You know the fix.
You just never get to it.

Some fixes are not hard, they are just relentless. A wasting search term needs one negative keyword. A profitable campaign capped by its budget needs a small lift. None of it needs judgment. All of it needs someone to actually do it, every day, before the money is gone.

  • "I add the same junk terms as negatives every Monday. It is the most mechanical work I do."
  • "I tried Google's automated rules once, paused a brand keyword by accident, and turned them all off."
  • "I want the boring fixes handled, but I will not hand over anything I cannot undo."

02 · Why you can trust it

Eight guardrails before anything moves.

Each guardrail maps to a specific way unattended automation goes wrong in the field. They run on every candidate, in order, and the first failure stops the action and logs why. The kind of safety that Google's own Automated Rules have never shipped.

01

Disabled by default

Nothing runs until you open the card and switch it on.

02

A preview before you enable

Before the first enable, see every action it would have taken over the last 30 days, and the guard that blocked each one.

03

Daily action cap

A hard ceiling on actions per automation, per account, per day.

04

A cooldown on every entity

It will not touch the same term, keyword, or campaign again until the cooldown clears.

05

Brand keywords protected

Your product name, and any terms you add, are never paused or negated.

06

It waits out the conversion lag

It lets an entity mature before acting on a signal with no conversions, built for long B2B sales cycles.

07

Revert any action in one click

Undo any past action on its own, in any order, whenever you want. The log keeps both the original and the revert.

08

Full audit log

Every action, applied or blocked, is a row you can filter, inspect, and verify in Google Ads.

03 · What it can do

Five recommended automations, and a builder for the rest.

The catalogue is small on purpose. An automation ships only if its action is reversible, low blast radius, high signal, low judgment, and worth real money. Everything else stays a recommendation for you or Hero AI to confirm.

  • 01

    Block wasting search terms

    Adds a wasting search term as an exact-match negative keyword on the campaign that produced it.

    Low risk
  • 02

    Lift the budget on profitable campaigns being capped

    Raises a capped, profitable campaign's daily budget by up to 25% per run, with a 50% weekly ceiling.

    Use with care
  • 03

    Pause pure-waste keywords

    Pauses a keyword that keeps spending past a threshold over the last 7 days with zero conversions.

    Use with care
  • 04

    Ease CPA targets on overperformers

    Raises Target CPA by 10% when a campaign holds well below its own 28-day average, so Smart Bidding can scale.

    Use with care
  • 05

    Ease ROAS targets on overperformers

    Lowers Target ROAS by 10% when a campaign holds well above its own 28-day average.

    Use with care
  • Build your own

    Compose a custom automation from a signal, a threshold, and an action. It runs through the same guardrails, the same dry run preview, and the same audit trail.

05 · Where it fits

Automations start where Alerts leave off.

The same monitoring that powers Alerts feeds Automations. An alert detects the issue. For the safe, reversible subset, an automation acts on it and logs the result. For everything that needs judgment, the alert hands off to Hero AI instead.

Common questions

What operators ask before they enable an automation.

4 questions

Will it touch my brand keywords?

No. Every automation that pauses or negates runs a brand-allowlist guard sourced from your product profile, plus any terms you add. Pausing your own brand keyword is the classic automation disaster, so the guard exists to prevent it, and the dry run preview shows you any brand matches before you ever enable.

Can I undo an action?

Every action is one click to revert, in any order. Google Ads version history only unwinds changes in strict reverse-chronological order, so you would have to undo Saturday before undoing Friday's mistake. Hero's audit log lets you revert any past execution on its own, whenever you want.

Does it run without me watching?

Only after you enable it, and only inside the caps you can see. Every automation ships disabled, requires a 30-day dry run preview before its first enable, and runs under a daily cap, a per-entity cooldown, and a conversion-attribution-lag gate so it never acts on a signal that has not had time to report.

How is this different from Google's own Automated Rules?

Google's rules read a fixed set of metrics over fixed date windows. They cannot reference a rolling baseline, cannot guard against cross-campaign side effects, cannot honor a long B2B conversion lag, and cannot read your product profile to exclude brand terms. Hero's automations are scoped to exactly those gaps, and a budget raise only executes if Google's own budget simulation projects more conversions at the new budget, which Google's rules cannot do.
