Why connect Meta 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 Meta Ads ad sets, creatives, frequency and ROAS, so it can check Meta purchases against GA4 with today's numbers.

  • Your whole Meta Ads account

    Campaigns, ad sets and ads, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Spend, reach, frequency, CTR and CPM, synced from Meta Ads automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "Do Meta and GA4 agree?" use Meta Ads and Google Ads, TikTok Ads at once.

What can Codex do with Meta Ads?

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

Pull last week's Meta Ads numbers, save them to data/meta-weekly.csv and give me the codex exec command to refresh it.

Saved data/meta-weekly.csv. Run the same prompt with codex exec in a scheduled job and the file refreshes with each week's numbers.
