Frequently Asked Questions

How does the agent account for unexpected market changes or client budget shifts?

The agent allows for real-time adjustments to its forecasting models. Users can input new parameters, such as sudden market shifts, competitor actions, or revised client budgets, and the agent will instantly re-calculate and update the forecast.

What level of detail can the forecast provide (e.g., by channel, by platform)?

The agent can generate forecasts at a highly granular level, segmenting by specific advertising channels (e.g., social, search, display), individual platforms (e.g., Facebook, Google Ads), and even by ad type, provided the historical data supports that level of detail.
