Hey everyone,
I had originally planned to make a quick software to help me make campaings for my clients faster, but I fell down a rabbit hole of continually adding more features and improving it. So now, I have barely worked on my own agency in weeks, instead, this has taken up my mind and time,
It's a tool that helps you build Google Ads search campaigns much faster than doing it directly in the Google Ads interface. I run my own Google Ads agency, and I first started with building a system for it in Google Sheets, but I thought there had to be a better way. So I've hit the redline on this project. Woke up at 05:00 this morning, and have been finishing it since then. Not sure if this is a long-term scalable business, but it has at least taught me a lot, and I've found a love for Saas.
What it does:
The core idea is simple. You enter your locations, services, and preferences. Gate then generates all your campaigns, ad groups, keywords, and ad copy automatically.
Two ways to build manually:
Templates and batch generation:
You can save your setups as templates and reuse them. You can also add multiple campaigns to a batch and generate them all at once.
AI mode (Pro plan):
This one asks you questions about your business and goals, then builds the entire campaign for you. It saves your conversation history, so you can come back and just tell it what to change. Hit "Update Campaigns" and it adjusts everything based on what you said.
Exporting:
You can export everything at once, or pick what you need: campaign logic, keywords and ad groups, ads, or individual pieces. Whatever works for your workflow.
Other stuff:
Essential plan gives you the manual builders with 30-day archive storage. Pro adds AI mode and keeps your archive forever. Pro also includes templates, faster generation speed and some other bonuses.
I'm offering a 7-day free trial if anyone wants to test it out. Genuinely looking for feedback from people who actually run ads. Tell me what's missing, what's annoying, what works.

Happy to answer any questions. Have a great day!
@MJ DeMarco, I built this with Lovable. Barrier of entry nowadays is just time and effort.

What it does:
The core idea is simple. You enter your locations, services, and preferences. Gate then generates all your campaigns, ad groups, keywords, and ad copy automatically.
Two ways to build manually:
- Simple mode - Super stripped down. For people who want to get in, build something, and get out. I made this for beginners.
- Advanced mode - More like working in a spreadsheet (built-in, not anything external). More control, more options. Will contiually add more features and advancements to this.
Templates and batch generation:
You can save your setups as templates and reuse them. You can also add multiple campaigns to a batch and generate them all at once.

You can export everything at once, or pick what you need: campaign logic, keywords and ad groups, ads, or individual pieces. Whatever works for your workflow.
Other stuff:
- Dashboard with stats and quick actions
- Keyboard shortcuts (S for search, H for dashboard, etc.) - full list is in Resources
- FAQs and documentation in the Resources section
- Light/Dark mode. Personally I love this. Cool transition between them.
