How we grade them
| 2.4GPAMadgicxFair | 1.8GPAMotionWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CGraded against the reporting tools it's listed with. One plan has every feature, priced by ad spend: at $5K a month it's $83 billed annually, up to $10K it's $90 ($129 monthly), and up to $1K it's $32. That's about level with Birch and under Superads, Atria and Motion at that spend. | FGraded against the reporting tools it's listed with. The only published price is Starter at $999 a month for up to $50K of ad spend, billing term not stated, and someone spending a tenth of that pays the same. That's several times what its rivals charge at that spend, and nothing here explains the gap. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan, but a 7-day trial with access to everything. A week is enough to see what the AI suggests for your account, but not much more. | CNo free plan, but a 14-day trial that needs no card. That's long enough to connect your accounts and see a few reports before paying. |
| Features | BA daily AI audit with one-click fixes, a Copilot that answers questions about your account, rules, creative fatigue alerts, an image ad generator and reports mixing six data sources. For Meta that's the whole job. Other ad platforms show up in reports only. | CVisual reports, AI tags by hook and angle, AI tasks that suggest the next brief, a feed of rivals' new ads and shareable snapshots. It's strong analysis, but it doesn't make the ads, and attribution from GA4 and Northbeam only comes on Pro, priced through sales. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. One-click approvals help, but there's an account to connect, a lot of tools to learn, and rules to set up before automation does anything. | CNo rating on record. You connect ad accounts before anything shows, and the reports and tags take some learning, though shared snapshots need no login for clients. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, with no browser extension or apps. Reports pull in Meta, Google Ads, TikTok, Shopify, Klaviyo and Google Analytics 4, and it works with Claude and ChatGPT, plus a Google Ads MCP server. | BWeb only, with no phone or desktop app. It reads Meta, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn ad accounts, posts to Slack, takes Google Analytics 4 and Northbeam data on Pro, and offers MCP access. |
| Best for | AI fixes and reports for Meta ad accounts | creative reports for big Meta and TikTok spenders |

Worth knowing
Madgicx
- Optimization, automation and ad launching are built for Meta; Google Ads, TikTok and others appear in reports only, plus a Google Ads MCP server.

- Tracking Pro, server-side conversion tracking for Meta, is an add-on at $49 a month per connected account.
- Madgicx says it offers no browser or Chrome extension; the app runs in a web browser.

- Only Starter has a published price; Pro and Growth, for over $50K and $125K of monthly ad spend, are priced through sales.
