Why choose Goldbeater over Ryze AI or groas
- You want to own the account. Goldbeater checks it every day, shows the evidence and prepares each fix, the way an experienced analyst would, and the final say on each is yours.
- You want nothing to change behind your back. A change reaches the account when a person presses Apply and at no other time, every applied change can be undone, and a campaign you've guarded refuses any change.
- You want to check the reasoning before you act. The same 166 checks look for 274 problems every day, and its AI agent shows every query it ran to reach a finding.
- You want a pattern, not one bad week, behind every change. 72 of Goldbeater's checks test what they find against chance before a fix is drafted, on your account's own numbers.
- You want to see what the work is worth. Where a problem's cost can be measured its finding carries a monthly figure, so the review shows in dollars what it found.
What a finding looks like
Goldbeater shows you the evidence before anything changes, where an autopilot acts on it: here, Performance Max paying for a search one of your own campaigns bids on.
$214Spend that would move, last 30 days
Performance Max bought "cedar and pine rugs", which Rugs — Broad bids on
Performance Max — All products
Performance Max — All products spent $214 on it in the last 30 days, though Rugs — Broad bids on cedar and pine rugs in Rugs.
Each campaign, the last 30 days
| Figure | Rugs — Broad (winner) | Performance Max — All products (loser) |
|---|---|---|
| Spend | $96 | $214 |
| Conversions | 2 | 1 |
| Cost per conversion | $48 | $214 |
| Clicks | 21 | 38 |
| Conversions per click | 9.5% | 2.6% |
Rugs — Broad
Rugs
Performance Max — All products
A search one of your Search campaigns bids on as a keyword, bought by Performance Max instead. It gets the ad and page Performance Max assembled rather than the ones you wrote for it, and its results are counted in Performance Max rather than the campaign built for it. Google puts an exact keyword identical to a search ahead of Performance Max, so that's the change Goldbeater drafts. The figure is the spend that would move, not money saved.
Add "cedar and pine rugs" to Rugs — Broad as an exact-match keyword. Google puts an exact keyword identical to a search ahead of Performance Max, so Rugs — Broad answers it with its text ad whenever it can serve; a Shopping ad can still show beside it, and if the campaign is limited by its budget, Performance Max can still take some. It's the change below.

It reaches your account when you approve it in the change set and press Apply. An applied change can be undone.
How the two approaches differ
Goldbeater
Ryze AI and groas
When Ryze AI or groas fits
- You don't want to be involved at all. groas acts on its own inside the guardrails you set.
- You advertise well beyond Google. Ryze AI covers Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn and Microsoft Ads too.
Using both, or switching
If you're leaving an autopilot, connect Goldbeater first, so its first review reads the account as the autopilot left it. Then switch off the autopilot's unattended changes.
