Search terms
Search-term intelligence. Aggregate analysis of which search queries trigger ads across connected accounts, where the systemic waste sits, and which n-grams reliably signal it.
What this pillar is.
The search-terms pillar is the public reference for AdTAO's n-gram-level visibility. Like the placements pillar, counts are derived from connected accounts, k-anonymity-filtered, and rounded. The pillar publishes weekly editions and an upload-tool that produces an n-gram waste report from a single account's search-term download; insight articles surface compounding patterns over time.
