Before you get started

Can I try Adsmith before adding a credit card?

Yes. Sign in with email or Google and add your website. Adsmith researches your business and creates your first ad drafts without payment details. You pay when you launch campaigns or generate additional drafts.

What work do I still need to do with Adsmith?

Provide your website and business context, check accuracy and creative fit, connect an existing Google or Meta ad account, choose your budget, and review campaign settings and results. Adsmith handles business research, personas, creative generation, and supported campaign management. You approve publishing unless you explicitly enable auto-publish.

What do I need to launch with Adsmith?

Connect your existing Google or Meta ad account, add payment, and review the creative, settings, and budget. You approve publishing unless you enable auto-publish. Adsmith does not create new ad accounts, and each platform still reviews ads under its own rules.

What happens if I stop a campaign?

You can stop any campaign at any time. Adsmith’s agent fee applies only while it is running, so we do not continue charging for that campaign after it stops.

What should I confirm with HeyGen before choosing?

Confirm current pricing, what you can review before payment, which ad accounts it connects to, and which work would still belong to your team.
