What it is

Your ad spend, cost per click and cost per lead, in plain English, next to where your leads actually come from. A daily guard checks the account every morning and holds the budget to the cap you set.

A daily check, and cost-per-lead shown beside the actual leads — so a runaway campaign is caught tomorrow morning instead of on next month's statement.

Why a module like this exists · the numbers

Every module here is a job that mattered and still lost, week after week, to the cars on the floor. Customers expect it done anyway — that gap is the whole reason this system exists.

MoneyA hire, an agency, a consultant — each one costs more than the problem seemed to.
TimeEvery one of these jobs loses to a car that needs to leave on Friday. Every time.
Know-howAds, SEO, review strategy — a second trade you were never asked if you wanted.
StressOne more open loop at 11pm. So it waited. That was the rational choice.

None of that was laziness — it was arithmetic. Doing this properly used to mean a hire or an agency. That's the arithmetic that changed:

ONE HIRE (mean US receptionist wage, BLS 2025)$39kALL 8 BOTS, YEAR ONE (SETUP INCLUDED)$7.2k · 18%

That is year one with the $2,995 setup in it; every year after is $4,188 — about 11%. Wage is the kindest comparison anyway: it leaves out payroll taxes, benefits and hiring. And we're not claiming a bot replaces a person; we're showing where the price sits. Both numbers are checkable.
