Why connect TikTok 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 TikTok Ads videos, watch time, ad groups and CPA, so it can compare TikTok and Meta for the same video with today's numbers.

  • Your whole TikTok Ads account

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

  • Always today's numbers

    Creatives with previews, synced from TikTok Ads automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "TikTok or Meta for this video?" use TikTok Ads and Meta Ads, Google Ads at once.
