Rule Engine's "Reduce Bids for Expensive Product Groups" strategy automatically lowers bids on product groups with a higher CPA than the campaign's typical average, or with more clicks than it normally takes to get a conversion in that campaign. It's built for Standard Shopping campaigns running on Enhanced CPC, and you can customize this rule based on your thresholds. ### Keep campaigns in sync with your feed without anyone touching them Products get added, removed, or go out of stock constantly, but a campaign built around last week's feed keeps running on stale structure until someone rebuilds it by hand.

Shopping Campaign Management syncs with your merchant feed to update existing product groups and listing groups, and creates new ad groups or campaigns as your feed changes, suggesting removals for discontinued products and additions for new ones. You can run it manually, or schedule it to refresh automatically on a daily, weekly, or monthly cadence. ### Automatically exclude the PMax placements that don't belong near your brand PMax can serve your ads next to gaming content, kids' content, or other placements that were never right for your brand.

In such cases, you can use Rule Engine’s prebuilt strategies like "Exclude Gaming PMax Placements from Account," “Exclude Placements from Employment Content” and "Exclude Kids PMax Placements from Account," that add exclusions at the account level. ### Automate negative keyword additions using Rule Engine Non-converting search terms keep eating budget until someone reviews the report and adds negatives by hand, which most teams don't get to often enough. Rule Engine lets you run prebuilt strategies that identify non-converting search queries with high cost or poor CTR in Standard Shopping campaigns and automatically add them as ad group negative keywords. ### Let AI build the Rule Engine strategy for you Setting up a good Rule Engine strategy from scratch means knowing exactly which conditions and actions to combine, which is its own small project before it ever runs. Rule Engine's "Create Strategy Using AI" beta feature lets you describe your goal in plain language and generates the rules for you to review before adding. Through Optmyzr's MCP, you can also ask Claude or another connected AI assistant to generate a Rule Engine strategy directly, without opening Optmyzr first. ### Monitor trending and declining products Product performance shifts constantly across a big catalog, and by the time someone happens to notice a product quietly losing conversions, budget's usually already been wasted on it for days.

Rule Engine's "Analyze Product Trends" strategy monitors performance change at the product level and flags the ones that are trending up or have recently started losing conversions, so you know which products deserve attention without reviewing the whole catalog by hand. ### Bid to a target ROAS or CPA instead of setting bids by feel Picking the right bid for a product group without a clear target metric usually comes down to guesswork, adjusted occasionally whenever someone remembers to check.

Rule Engine's "Bid to Target ROAS" and "Bid to Target CPA" strategies set bids automatically to help hit whichever metric matters more for that product group. Both use a lookback window that starts at 7 days and progressively expands up to 90 days, until there's enough conversion data to make a reliable bid decision. ## Let Optmyzr handle the routine work Try Optmyzr for 14 days.
