About GarageMe
GarageMe is an independent informational resource focused on the AI ads agency model: how agencies use AI agents to run paid media, which engagement models exist, and how the approach compares with an in-house team or running software on your own.
What This Guide Covers
Our pages explain what an AI ads agency automates and what stays with people, the ladder of autonomy from audit-only to fully automated accounts, the guardrails a client should insist on, and the questions to ask before signing. Figures shown in charts are illustrative and describe typical engagements, not verified case studies.
Editorial Approach
Pages are written as practical field guides. Claims should be specific, terminology should be clear, and every important decision should remain reviewable by the people responsible for budget, brand, privacy, and compliance.
Independence and External Services
This website is separate from the agencies, advertising platforms, and software products it discusses. References to third-party services, including AdBid, are provided for context and do not imply ownership, endorsement, or guaranteed results.
Corrections
Advertising technology and agency practices change quickly. Readers should verify current capabilities and terms with the relevant provider. Material errors may be corrected when identified.
Who This Guide Is For
Media buyers who want to know what changes when AI agents take over monitoring and routine optimization, and what still lands on their desk. Agency leads deciding which engagement model to offer first and how to explain guardrails to a client. Founders running their own ads who need to judge whether an agency, an in-house hire, or software alone is the right next step. Analysts who care about the action log, the reporting, and how figures from an engagement can be verified.
How We Check What We Publish
We rely on three kinds of sources. First, official platform documentation: the Google Ads reports and columns reference, for example, is where we confirm what a client can see in their own account without any agency tooling. Second, public product descriptions from agencies and AI advertising platforms, read for what they actually promise. Third, our own small pilots on test accounts, which show how approval queues and guardrails behave in practice. We do not publish sponsored reviews, and the "stats" blocks on the homepage are plain facts or clearly labeled illustrative figures, not audited results.
How to Use This Guide
Read the homepage in order. Start with the definition section for the vocabulary. Move to the workflow, which shows the four steps from audit to steady-state optimization. The engagement models come next and explain the ladder from audit-only to autonomous accounts. The comparison table then sets AI-driven agencies against an in-house team and software only. Finish with the FAQ and the platform section if you want to see what the agents run on.
