Audit your ad account in 60 seconds. Without handing over the keys.

Upload three CSVs and see exactly when your CPA started climbing, which search terms are accelerating your waste, and what broke two weeks ago that you haven't noticed yet — a trend-aware audit no static scorecard can give you. No API access, no OAuth, no account in anyone's database. Your data's gone the second we're done.

How It Works

From export to insight in under a minute.

No Google login. No API token. No account creation. Just three CSV files from the Google Ads UI you already know.

01

Export your CSVs

In Google Ads, go to Reports → Download → CSV for your Campaign, Keyword, and Search Terms reports. Add the Day segment (Segment → Time → Day) to enable trend analysis.

FAQ

Common questions.

Your CSV data is parsed entirely in your browser and never stored on our servers. The analysis engine processes it in memory and immediately discards it. We store only the computed results (scores and findings), not the raw data.

No. Kindling works entirely from CSV exports you download manually from the Google Ads UI. No OAuth, no API keys, no developer token. Just three standard report downloads.

Kindling works without it — you'll still get all six scored sections and the Search Term Waste analysis. You'll just miss the trend charts and change-point detection. To enable trends, re-export with Segment → Time → Day applied.

It's a one-time payment via Stripe. No subscription. You get permanent access to your full report link for 90 days, plus a PDF download.

Five report credits you can use anytime — one per client account. Credits don't expire. Ideal for agencies auditing multiple accounts.

The analysis is based on the data in your exports and well-established Google Ads optimization heuristics. Dollar impact estimates are clearly labeled as estimates. The tool is built by practitioners who run PPC campaigns professionally.
