How Lever protects your ad spend

Lever is designed so that AI agents can manage real ad spend without risk. Every write operation goes through a safety flow that requires explicit confirmation before any change takes effect.

​
Draft-Preview-Confirm

When your agent makes a change — pausing a campaign, adjusting a budget, updating a status — the operation is never executed immediately. Instead, it follows a three-step flow:
1

Agent calls a write tool

For example, your agent calls google_ads_update_campaign to pause a campaign. Lever fetches the campaign’s current state and creates a human-readable preview of the proposed changes.
2

Draft is created

The operation is stored as a pending draft with a 5-minute TTL. Lever returns the preview and a draftId to the agent. No changes have been made to your ad account.
3

Agent confirms the draft

The agent shows you the preview and calls confirm_draft with the draftId. Only then does Lever execute the change. If the draft isn’t confirmed within 5 minutes, it expires automatically.
Here’s what the flow looks like in practice: 
Agent: "I'd like to pause campaign 'Summer Sale' — here's the preview:"

  Campaign "Summer Sale" (12345):
  Status: ENABLED → PAUSED

  Draft ID: abc-123
  Expires: 5 minutes

Agent: "Should I confirm this change?"
You: "Yes, go ahead."
Agent: [calls confirm_draft] → "Done. Campaign 'Summer Sale' is now paused."
There is no cancel_draft tool. If you decide not to proceed with a change, simply don’t confirm it — the draft will expire automatically after 5 minutes.

Budget Caps

Coming soon. Budget caps will enforce hard spending limits that your agent cannot exceed, checked before every write operation.

​
Audit Logging

Every action your agent takes through Lever is recorded in an audit log. Each entry includes:
  • Who — your user ID
  • What — the action taken (e.g., list_campaigns, update_campaign_draft, confirmed_update_campaign)
  • Where — the platform (Google Ads or Meta Ads) and resource affected
  • When — timestamp of the action
  • Status — whether the action succeeded, failed, or is pending confirmation
You can view your audit log in the Lever dashboard.

Quota Usage

Each tool call = one credit toward your monthly quota. Draft creation and confirmation are separate tool calls, each counting as 1 credit — so a full draft-preview-confirm cycle uses 2 credits total. See Pricing for tier limits.
