The problem

Conversions dropped 23%. Everyone has a theory. Was it the ad creative? The landing page? A pricing change? Without cross-platform data, you're just guessing.

Google Search Console tracks search queries and impressions, click-through rates by query, average position by keyword. Meta Ads tracks campaign and ad set performance, creative performance, audience targeting data. Neither sees the other. That blind spot costs you money every day.

How askotter fixes this

askotter pulls Google Search Console and Meta Ads into one data lake. With both data sets unified, it can test hypotheses against data from every tool and isolate the real cause. Self-healing agents adapt as your data shifts, so the analysis stays accurate without manual tuning.
