Placements
Placement intelligence. Aggregate visibility into where Performance Max and Display campaigns place ads, how that maps to outcomes, and which placements are systemic waste.
What this pillar is.
The placements pillar is the public reference for AdTAO's placement-level visibility. Counts and aggregates are derived from connected accounts at the time of publication, k-anonymity-filtered, and rounded for readability. The pillar publishes weekly editions and a domain-level risk-checker tool; longer-form insight articles frame patterns through the TRUST methodology.
