The problem, in plain words: “I want a tool that analyzes performance across multiple advertising platforms and recommends specific dollar amounts to move between channels for my approval, without automatically spending or just showing a dashboard.”

1Click Report fits best, with 1 more that fits too.

You need a cross-platform ad tool that analyzes performance and recommends exact dollar reallocations for your approval, not one that auto-spends or only shows dashboards.

What fits

1Click Reportstrong · 88

It pulls live data from Google Ads, Meta Ads and other sources, finds underperformers and returns specific fixes with numbers; it is positioned as an analyst that surfaces where money is wasted rather than automatically moving budget, matching your need for actionable, approval-first recommendations.

Synterstrong · 82

Built to manage paid media across 20+ ad platforms with scoped connections and explicit approval gates, it supports cross-platform analysis and enforces spend limits, holding spend at zero until you approve changes — aligning with your requirement that recommendations be presented for manual approval and never auto-spent.

Caveat: An account is required before use.
