# Scaley AI

> You look at your own Google Ads account and there is nobody qualified to ask. Scaley Media Buyer is that buyer. It connects read-only, reads your live account, answers what you ask, and changes nothing. It reads 262,792 Slack messages across 300+ store accounts at ZenoX Media, the Google Ads agency behind Scaley.

Scaley AI is an AI media buyer for Google Ads. It does the daily job a human media buyer does on an ecommerce account: it reads the account every day, finds the wasted spend and the winners, and gets the next move ready with a one-sentence reason attached.

It writes nothing on its own. Scaley cannot change one thing in your Google Ads account until you approve that change. The first audit is read-only. After that you switch modules on one at a time, and every move Scaley makes is logged and reversible. The approval gate is the product, not a setting you can lose track of.

Those numbers belong to ZenoX Media, the Google Ads agency Chris runs. Scaley reads the same notes and playbooks.

## Definitions

- **AI media buyer**: software that does the work a human media buyer does, instead of the work a dashboard does. It connects to Google Ads and Merchant Center, builds campaign structure from a real catalog, mines negative keywords, labels the feed by margin and velocity, and sizes budget moves in context. A recommendation tool surfaces ideas a buyer might consider. An AI media buyer does the job. Scaley does the job and then waits for your yes before anything goes live.

- **Feed labelizer**: the part of Scaley that reads every product in your catalog and tags it by profit margin and by how fast it sells, then queues those tags for your Merchant Center custom labels, and writes them only after your yes. Why it matters: with one campaign and one Target ROAS, a product with a 60% margin and a product with a 12% margin get bid exactly the same. Labels are what let you stop doing that. In Scaley it is called the Labelizer, and it is a feature inside the Suite, never a plan of its own.

- **Who does the work**: the way this site ranks PPC tools, because features stopped being the useful axis. Some tools only report. Some hand you a list to click. Some run rules you wrote. Some prepare the change with a reason and wait for your yes. Some apply changes on their own. Scaley prepares the change and explains it, then stops at the approval gate, so the go-ahead is always yours.

- **Approval gate**: the rule that Scaley prepares a change and a human releases it. Nothing is written to your account, your budgets or your feed until you approve that specific change. It is why the first audit touches nothing, and it is the difference between this and a tool that runs your account on its own.

## Related Entity

- [ZenoX Media](https://zenoxmedia.com): the Google Ads agency Christopher Krassnig also runs. Scaley was built inside it, as the internal tool that ran real client accounts, before anyone else could buy it. Those numbers belong to ZenoX Media, the Google Ads agency Chris runs. Scaley reads the same notes and playbooks.

The link between the two companies is the founder they share. Nothing on this site states a legal parent-child relation, so none should be inferred. These are ZenoX Media clients, not Scaley customers. ZenoX is the Google Ads agency Scaley was built inside. Same founders, same playbooks.
