CPA-Spike Fatigue Agent that Researches Angles and Hands Off Briefs

What it does

This is an agent-driven workflow for the harder judgment call: a creative's CPA has spiked, but is it fatigue, a seasonal dip, or audience saturation? The agent pulls the creative's full performance history from BigQuery, reads the metrics in context, and uses Perplexity to scan for current messaging angles and competitor moves in the category. It then writes a reasoned refresh brief — what's likely tired, two or three fresh angles to test, and why — and opens a handoff task on the Monday design board.

When to use it

Use this for high-spend hero creatives where a templated threshold alert isn't enough and you want a reasoned recommendation, not just a flag. Best when the cost of a wrong refresh is high and you want research baked into the brief.

How it works

  1. 1A CPA-spike event triggers the agent.
  2. 2The agent queries the creative's history in BigQuery.
  3. 3It researches fresh angles and category trends via Perplexity.
  4. 4It reasons over fatigue vs. other causes and drafts a refresh brief.
  5. 5It creates a handoff item on the Monday design board with the brief attached.
