Your cost per purchase went from €26.21 (Sep 6 to Sep 21) to €30.73 (Sep 22 to Oct 5). That’s +17%.

The increase comes from Meta: €25.03, then €32.43. Google Ads and TikTok are flat.

Within Meta, one creative accounts for almost all of it: “Promo −20% this week”. Since Sep 22, its 7-day rolling cost per purchase has gone from €24 to €41, and its CTR is down 38%. It took 31% of the month’s budget (€9,860 of €31,806).

Without that break in the trend, your cost per purchase would have stayed around €26.

Here’s what I suggest: pause “Promo −20%” and move its budget to “UGC · Laces in Paris” (€20 per purchase). In Action mode, I’ll prepare the card: nothing goes out without your approval.

A chat answer about Lumio Sneakers, “Where is my budget going?”: the three accounts read during the turn, the totals from Sep 6 to Oct 5 with cost per purchase recalculated from the sums, then the spend-by-platform ring chart, exportable as CSV or as an image. Sample data.
  1. It readsWhen you ask for a number, Pilot must check it in your connected accounts' data. A number that came up earlier in the conversation can guide it, but it never uses it as a source.
  2. It does the mathEvery ad platform is compared over the same period. Ratios (CPA, ROAS…) are recalculated from the totals, not averaged account by account. Pilot never adds up different currencies.
  3. It shows youA line chart, bars, a pie chart or a table, right in the answer: every chart exports to CSV or as an image, and every table copies into Sheets or Excel.

Missing data? It says so, and says which.

The instructions given to Pilot forbid it to make up a number or to put a zero where data is missing.

Missing data

Example wording

How much did Google Ads cost me this month?

I don't have access to Google Ads in this workspace. Connect the account, then ask your question again.

Compare Meta and TikTok over the week.

The TikTok connection needs to be renewed: TikTok numbers aren't included in this answer.

And hour by hour, on this platform?

This platform doesn't provide that breakdown. Here's the finest it offers: by day.

Why did sales drop on Tuesday?

I don't know yet why sales dropped on Tuesday: nothing changed in your campaigns that day.

Four short exchanges, one per case: an account that isn't connected, a connection to renew, a detail the platform doesn't provide, a cause that isn't in the accounts. Example wording.
  1. An account isn't connected“I don't have access to Google Ads in this workspace. Connect the account, then ask your question again.”
  2. A connection needs renewing“The TikTok connection needs to be renewed: TikTok numbers aren't included in this answer.”
  3. The platform doesn't provide the detail“This platform doesn't provide that breakdown. Here's the finest it offers: by day.”
  4. The cause isn't in the accounts“I don't know yet why sales dropped on Tuesday: nothing changed in your campaigns that day.”

Example wording. In the app, the chat accepts attachments: CSV, Excel, PDF.

Meta, Google Ads and TikTok, side by side, over the same period

No more exports to paste into a spreadsheet. You ask once, all three accounts are read, the total is recalculated from the sums.

Every platform

Which platform has the lowest cost per purchase?

TikTok has the lowest cost per purchase: €27.67, versus €28.30 for Meta and €28.57 for Google Ads.

The gap is small, and TikTok carries only 17% of the budget. All three platforms are read over the same period, Sep 6 to Oct 5.
