Andromeda rebuilt the retrieval stage of Meta's ads delivery; GEM and the Adaptive Ranking Model rebuilt ranking. Here is what actually changes for an operator: what to feed the system, how to structure the account, and how to run creative rotation — with every platform claim cited to Meta's own disclosures.
Platform ROAS overstates true impact by 20–85% depending on channel. This guide covers Meta Conversion Lift, geo holdouts, iROAS math, and the decision framework that turns lift results into budget moves.
Meta Ads Manager hides the creative diagnostics that matter behind custom columns. This walkthrough shows exactly where to find thumbstop, hold, and ThruPlay — and how to read them without false conclusions.
Most Meta creative tests declare false winners. This playbook covers hypothesis design, Meta Experiments setup, sample-size math, and the three-metric read that separates signal from noise.
ThruPlay is a Meta-specific term, but the underlying mechanic — counting a view at a specific threshold — exists differently on TikTok, YouTube, and CTV. Here's how the metrics actually compare and where cross-platform benchmarks break down.
ThruPlay benchmarks shift 10–30 points by video length, placement, and audience temperature. See the full 2026 segmented data — and which number to actually cite.
Step-by-step formulas for the three core video-engagement metrics — Video Completion Rate, ThruPlay Rate, and View-Through Rate — with worked examples and the platform-specific quirks that trip up cross-platform comparisons.
