Why choose Goldbeater over Optmyzr

  • You want the analysis done, not tools to run. Goldbeater runs the same 166 checks every day, with nothing to set up first, and each week its AI agent investigates what they found.
  • You want more of the account checked. Goldbeater checks for 274 problems every day, including 128 that nothing Optmyzr publishes names and 109 of the 113 that Optmyzr's help center does.
  • You want a finding judged on your own numbers, not a threshold somebody set. 72 of Goldbeater's checks test what they find against chance on the campaign's own rate, so what they raise is a pattern, not noise.
  • You want each problem's cost in front of you. Every finding shows its evidence and, where the cost can be measured, what it costs a month.
  • You want every change ready to go, and yours to send. Each fix arrives with its value before and after, reaches the account when you press Apply, and can be undone.
  • Your spend grows past your plan. Goldbeater charges no overage: it tells you, and the analysis carries on for 14 days while you move up or switch an account off.

What a finding looks like

Goldbeater judges a problem like this one against the campaign's own numbers, with a test for chance, rather than against a threshold somebody set.

Finding
Sample data
HighHigh severityCost per conversion

Sofas — Phrase paid $400 a conversion on search partners, against $61 on Google Search

Sofas — Phrase

$339Estimated, a month

At the $61 a conversion Google Search paid, the 1 conversion search partners brought would have cost about $61; they cost $400, about $339 more in the last 30 days.

This campaign's own cost per conversion on Google Search, last 30 days

What Goldbeater saw

The campaign spent $400 on search partners, 20% of its spend, for 1 conversion where 6.5 were expected at its Google Search rate: under a 3.7% chance of so few by luck, allowing for the 2 campaign and network pairs tested across the account.

Search partners

Google Search

Why it matters

A Search campaign also showing on Google search partners' sites or the Display Network, where that spend brings under half the conversions it buys on Google Search, too far under to be chance, and under half the return where your conversion value is real. Google turns search partners on for every new Search campaign. The estimate is what those conversions cost above the campaign's Google Search price.

What to do

Turn off Google search partners in Sofas — Phrase's network settings, so its budget goes to Google Search alone. It's the change below.

Tested against chance means Goldbeater judges the item on the campaign’s own numbers and raises it only where the difference is too large to be luck, allowing for everything it tested in the same pass.

The table leaves out 39 reports on the account rather than problems in it, 15 rules that change the account by themselves, 1 that would raise spend or widen where ads show and 1 for other ad platforms.

How the two approaches differ

Goldbeater

Goldbeater is built around one analysis, done for you: the same 166 checks for 274 problems every day, an AI agent's investigation each week, and a change set ready to approve line by line. There's nothing to configure.

Optmyzr

Optmyzr is a set of tools you point at an account: audits, budget monitors, a Rule Engine and an AI assistant. You choose which to run and when, so what it does depends on what you set up.
06

When Optmyzr fits

  • You advertise well beyond Google. Optmyzr covers six ad platforms.
  • You want to build your own automation. Its Rule Engine runs the strategies you write, on a schedule.
07

Using both, or switching

Goldbeater runs beside Optmyzr on one Google Ads account. Guard a campaign in Goldbeater if Optmyzr's automation changes it by itself, and it refuses any change Goldbeater drafts.

Questions

Does Optmyzr change my account without my approval?

Its home page says no changes without your approval, ever. Changes happen by themselves only through automation you switch on yourself: a Rule Engine strategy scheduled with its Apply Changes option, a budget monitor set to pause campaigns or adjust budgets, or its URL checker in Apply mode, which pauses ads, keywords or asset groups.

How does Optmyzr's pricing compare at $50,000 of monthly spend?

Goldbeater's Starter plan is $249 a month for 3 accounts, with no overage charge. Optmyzr's Essentials plan is $349 a month billed monthly, or $244 a month billed yearly, for up to 25 accounts.

Which ad platforms does Goldbeater cover?

Google Ads, including manager (MCC) accounts: Google Ads only, for now. Optmyzr covers Microsoft Ads and four other platforms besides Google.
