The Setup

How AdsPilot was configured before the bots went live.

  1. 01

    Break-Even ACOS Calculated

    Sale price $27.99 · All costs (COGS + FBA + Referral Fee) ~$17.00 · Net margin ~$10.99 · Break-even ACOS: 39.3%. Every bot now knows the exact profitability threshold per ASIN.

  2. 02

    Profit Guard Configured

    Profit Guard set to automatically pause any campaign exceeding 39% ACOS. At 62.19% ACOS, this bot alone would have saved hundreds of dollars per month.

  3. 03

    Bid Optimizer Activated

    Bid Optimizer starts hourly recalculations. Target: bring ACOS from 62.19% down to 28-32% within 90 days — purely through automated bid adjustments.

  4. 04

    Keyword Harvester Running

    Daily mining of Search Term Reports. Profitable long-tail keywords promoted to Exact Match. Irrelevant search terms blocked with negative keywords automatically.

  5. 05

    2-Week Audit Mode First

    All bots observe for 2 weeks before making live changes. Data collected, patterns identified, anomalies flagged. No changes until baseline is fully understood.

Why We're Publishing This

🎯

Real account, real data

This is not a simulation. It's our own scissors product on Amazon.com — the same tool we're building for you.

📊

We start from a losing position

62.19% ACOS, -$34/month. No cherry-picking. If the bots work, you'll see it in the numbers. If they don't, you'll see that too.

🤖

No manual intervention

Once configured, we don't touch the campaigns manually. Everything published is purely automated — no hidden human optimization.

🔄

Weekly updates

We update this page every week with real data. Watch the optimization happen in real time — not in a polished 90-day report.
