Why connect LinkedIn Ads to Codex?

Codex runs in your terminal, its IDE extension and scripts, so what it finds once can be rerun with codex exec instead of redone by hand. Connected through Lemonado, it reads your LinkedIn Ads campaigns, lead forms, job titles and CPL, so it can compare LinkedIn and Google cost per lead with today's numbers.

  • Your whole LinkedIn Ads account

    Campaign groups, campaigns and ads, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Spend, impressions, clicks and CTR, synced from LinkedIn Ads automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "LinkedIn or Google for leads?" use LinkedIn Ads and Google Ads, Meta Ads at once.

What can Codex do with LinkedIn Ads?

Codex reads your LinkedIn Ads data from your terminal and turns one-off questions into commands you can rerun with codex exec.
