Automated StackAdapt Pacing Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens StackAdapt, checks each active campaign's spend pace against its daily budget, posts an alert to Microsoft Teams for anything running significantly over or under pace, and creates a Trello card so the trader has a queued task to adjust the flight.

In short

How do I catch StackAdapt campaigns running off pace?

WebRun checks StackAdapt every morning for campaigns running significantly over or under their daily pace. It posts a Microsoft Teams alert and creates a Trello card for each off-pace campaign with its flight end date, so a trader has a same-day queued task to adjust it instead of finding out at the end of the flight.

  • Off-pace campaigns get flagged the same morning they drift
  • Every flagged campaign has a Trello card with a clear owner
  • On-pace campaigns drop out of the alert automatically

Questions, answered

Does it change the campaign budget or bids?

No. WebRun only flags campaigns running off pace and creates a Trello card. Adjusting a budget, bid, or flight always stays a decision for the trader.

How is off pace defined?

You set the threshold for how far over or under the expected daily spend counts as worth flagging.

What happens once a campaign is back on pace?

It's checked fresh each morning, so a campaign that's caught up simply stops appearing in the alert.

Put this on autopilot.
