Updated this week

The Creative Automation Suite helps brands design, manage, and scale creative overlays for ads efficiently. With built-in design tools, templates, analytics, and asset management, users can streamline the process of creating and optimizing ad creatives across campaigns.

This guide explains each section of the Creative Automation Suite and how to use it.


Overview

The Overview section provides a quick snapshot of your creative automation performance.

Here you can view:

  • Active Overlays โ€“ Total overlays currently applied to ads

  • Ad Stats on Overlay Ads โ€“ Spend incurred/revenue generated/ROAS/CTR on ads where overlays are enabled

  • Key Features โ€“ A quick summary of capabilities available in the suite

This section helps you quickly understand how overlays are being used across your campaigns.


Design

The Design section is where users create overlay designs.

You can create a design in multiple ways:

Create from Scratch

Start with a blank canvas and design your overlay according to your brandโ€™s requirements.

Use a Preset Template

Select from predefined templates to quickly create a design.

Use Existing Catalog Designs

If catalog designs already exist, they can be reused or modified.

After Creating a Design

Once a design is completed, you can:

  • Apply it to Catalog Ads

  • Save it as a Template for future use

  • Import the design to the Media Library for use in custom ads

This flexibility allows brands to use designs across multiple ad formats.


Templates

The Templates section contains reusable design templates.

This includes:

  • Predefined templates available on the platform

  • Custom templates saved by users

Templates help users create new designs faster without starting from scratch.


Drafts

The Drafts section stores designs that are not yet finalized.

Users can save designs as drafts when they want to continue editing later.

From this section you can:

  • Edit draft designs

Catalog Overlays

Ads & Analytics

The Ads & Analytics section provides insights into overlay-enabled ads.

Here you can:

  • View the overlay design applied to each ad

  • Monitor performance insights for those ads

Users can also switch or update overlays directly from this section, making it easier to optimize creatives without navigating multiple tools.


Media Library

The Media Library stores assets used across the Creative Automation Suite.

It contains two types of assets:

Ad Assets

Assets used in custom ads.

Designs imported from the Design section will appear here and can be reused in future ads.

Overlay Assets

Assets used while creating overlay designs.

Users can:

  • Upload multiple images
