Google's Smart Bidding Exploration is a major update that helps marketers find new conversion opportunities by expanding beyond past performance and short-term goals. It allows advertisers to bid on less obvious but valuable queries, increasing reach and qualified leads.

Markifact automates the creation and uploading of Meta ads using AI. Users generate custom visuals and matching ad copy by writing detailed prompts and uploading reference images. Ads are uploaded in a paused status for review before going live. This tool allows for quick creation of multiple ad variations, adaptation to market trends, and scaling of campaigns without needing extensive design or copywriting resources.

Cross-channel measurement in Google Analytics will provide deeper customer journey insights. Data Manager consolidates data with privacy protections and a new API to boost ROI. These tools help marketers prove ad ROI, manage data, and understand consumer journeys.

The Asset Studio centralizes creative tools for advertisers, while the Product Studio suggests campaign ideas based on trends. Brand profiles in Merchant Center assist retailers in managing their identity. New video ads are being tested to enhance customer engagement and discovery.
