AdCider

Hey Product Hunt!

I'm Nick, the founder and maker of AdCider.

If you've ever marketed an iOS app, you know the frustrating choice with Apple Ads: the simplicity of Basic (which lacks real control and is essentially a black box) or the power of Advanced (which means an endless cycle of exporting reports and adjusting bids).

I wanted the powerful results and insights of Advanced, but with the 'set-it-and-forget-it' ease of Basic - that's AdCider.
It’s designed around three core ideas:
1. Simple & Secure Setup: Use Apple's official sign-in to securely connect your ad account in seconds.
2. AI on Autopilot: Set a budget and your competitors. The AI builds the campaign and then continuously analyzes its performance, automatically adjusting bids and keywords to improve your results.
3. Total Transparency: This is crucial. In the "Update Feed," you can see the exact reasoning and full keyword list the AI used. No black boxes.

Quick note on transparency:
The demo video is sped up for the sake of the demo. The initial AI research phase may take couple of minutes to do its job properly. You can close the window, though – we'll email you the moment your campaign is live!

I'll be here all day to answer every question. Your honest feedback would be incredibly valuable.

As a thank you to the PH community, here’s an exclusive launch deal: 50% off any plan for 3 months with the code PHLAUNCH50.

Cheers, Nick

Congrats on the launch. Solving a real pain here. Also the website looks dope and super clean, cudos!

Just the optimization I was looking for

Nice launch! Managing Apple Search Ads is such a pain—glad someone’s finally automating it. Do you plan to expand beyond Apple ads later, or will you stay focused on this? Either way, excited to try it!

Apple Search Ads on autopilot? 🍏🛩️ Yes please — AdCider’s making ad ops way smoother! 📈🤖

Looks interesting @nikolaynankov – though your website talks about getting results it doesn't actually quantify what results these may be.

For my personal use, I would primarily be interested in using it if there were some quantifiable average metrics I should expect, e.g.:

• Reduce average CPA by 10%

• Increase installs by 25%

• etc

Without these proof points or guarantees, it seems primarily like a tool to reduce admin time, as the current Apple Search Ads interface already provides keyword recommendations etc.

I know it is hard to get these figure when first launching, but as soon as you can show some case studies with real metrics – compared to what using Apple Search Ads directly delivers – it would make your offer a lot more compelling.

AdCider makes managing Apple Search Ads effortless by automating keyword research and bid optimization. It’s a real time-saver for app developers.
