PreTestAds — Ad Creative Scoring MCP for AI Agents¶

Operator Use Cases¶
- DTC Brands — Score 10 video variations before spending $5K on the winner
- Agencies — Pre-test client creative in minutes instead of running $500 test campaigns
- Performance Marketers — Iterate creative with AI feedback before launch
- Content Creators — Validate hooks and CTAs against TikTok benchmarks
CorpusIQ Angle¶
PreTestAds + CorpusIQ = closed-loop ad optimization for operators. Use PreTestAds to score creative before launch → run ads on Meta/TikTok → track ROAS through CorpusIQ's ad platform connectors → feed performance data back into creative scoring. The creative-to-revenue feedback loop, all through AI agents.
Limitations¶
- Scoring benchmarked against TikTok ads only — may not translate to Meta, YouTube, etc.
- $5/run pricing adds up for high-volume testing
- Scoring is predictive, not guaranteed — real performance may vary
- x402 payment protocol adds friction for first-time users
