Stop runaway spendComing soon
Google can spend up to twice your daily budget on a single day. Set a hard daily cap and we pause your campaigns when you reach it, then switch them back on the next day.
Know when Google changes your account
The scan flags settings Google switched on for you through auto-applied recommendations, like search partners or broad match. With daily monitoring you hear about new ones the next morning.

Questions
- How is this different from Google’s recommendations?
- Google’s recommendations are free tips, and many of them help you spend more, for example by switching on broad match, search partners or automatically created assets. SpendCanary shows what to stop paying for.
- Should I hire an agency instead?
- An agency runs your ads for you, usually for a monthly fee or a share of your ad spend. SpendCanary is a second opinion that watches for leaks, for $19 a month. If you want someone to manage your ads day to day, an agency is the better fit.
- How is it different from PPC tools for specialists?
- Most of those tools are built for PPC specialists and agencies who manage many accounts. SpendCanary is built for owners who run their own ads: a short list of leaks, in dollars and plain English.
- Do I have to chat with an AI?
- No. AI chat assistants answer when you ask. SpendCanary checks your account every day and tells you first, by email.
- Is the scan safe?
- Yes. The script only reads your account. It contains no commands that change anything, and you can read every line before you run it.
- Why does Google ask for full access?
- Google Ads has no read-only permission for scripts, so it always asks for full access. Our script still only reads.
- What does it cost?
- The scan is free. Paid plans that watch your account every day are coming soon.
- What do you keep?
- Only summary numbers for each leak, never your raw ad data. Your report link stops working after 30 days, and the results are deleted after 13 months. You can ask us to delete everything sooner.
