Google’s Ad Strength guidance emphasizes relevance, quality, and diversity. Meta recommends diverse formats, placements, and creative concepts. Those production signals matter, but a publishable ad also needs truthful claims, brand ownership, consent, and a destination that fulfills the promise.

Do not publish merely because the total score is high. A single serious integrity problem can make the entire ad unsafe, misleading, or unusable. **Claims** ### Fabricated proof Invented statistics, testimonials, customer logos, certifications, scarcity, or performance outcomes require removal—not softer wording. **Identity** ### Unauthorized likeness or voice Do not simulate a real person, customer, employee, expert, or creator without appropriate rights and clear context. **Product** ### Misrepresented interface or result A generated screen, package, ingredient, capability, or before-and-after result must not imply behavior the actual product cannot deliver. **Destination** ### Promise mismatch The landing page must contain the offer, terms, availability, and evidence the ad leads viewers to expect. 04 · Review sequence ## How to review an AI-assisted ad before publishing. - 1 **Freeze the source evidence** List the approved product facts, proof, offer, audience, and claims before evaluating the generated artifact. - 2 **Inspect copy and pixels separately** Check every word, label, logo, product detail, person, and implied physical relationship at full size. - 3 **Compare the destination** Confirm price, terms, CTA, availability, and promise are consistent from ad through landing page. - 4 **Record the approved version** Publish only the exact reviewed artifact. Regeneration creates a new version that needs another review. FAQ ## AI-generated ad quality questions. ### Does a high score mean the ad will perform? No. The score reviews readiness and authenticity, not predicted auction performance. Test the ad against a clear objective and business metric. ### Does every AI-generated ad require disclosure? Requirements vary by platform, jurisdiction, subject, and use of synthetic people or events. Check current placement rules and disclose material facts clearly where required. ### Can AI-generated visuals be authentic? Yes, if they represent the product and context honestly, respect rights and consent, and do not fabricate evidence or real-world events.
