Paid-media quality control

Stop Typos from Burning Your Paid Ad Spend

Approved campaign copy can still change after it enters the online ad your audience will see.

A headline gets retyped into a design. Offer copy is shortened to fit a smaller placement. A CTA moves between versions. Disclaimers are resized, localizations are added, and a last-minute edit is carried into some exports but not others. Every change creates another opportunity for an error to enter after the copy deck has been approved.

Gard reads the rendered words in the current ad export—the same visual your audience will see. That adds a text-focused check where document spellcheckers stop helping: after copy has become part of an image.

Agency proofing process

Batch-proof exported ad creative before launch

  1. 01

    Proofread Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok ad graphics

    Use the exact paid social ad, display banner, carousel card, end card, or campaign graphic that is headed for trafficking or publication—not an earlier comp or copy document. Include the final sizes, crops, A/B versions, and localized exports that will actually run.

  2. 02

    Batch-scan ad sizes and variants

    Upload a JPEG, PNG, or WebP image, paste a direct image URL, or batch-scan a campaign with multiple placements and variants. Pro and Enterprise plans can monitor new exports with a Watch Folder.

  3. 03

    Review likely language issues in context

    Gard highlights likely issues on the creative and explains each suggested correction. Accept or dismiss each flag, update the design source, export the corrected version, and scan it again.

  4. 04

    Correct, export, and scan again

    Apply the accepted changes in the source file, export the updated creative, and give the final graphic another scan before it moves into trafficking and launch.

Agency team members can add this focused, file-level text check before trafficking. Gard checks the visible text in each exported ad image and keeps every suggestion connected to the creative. For the same text QA workflow across other finished design exports, explore artwork proofing .

Gard checks the visible words in final ad graphics and flags likely language issues while they are still easy to correct.

Use Gard to flag likely

  • Spelling and word-choice mistakes
  • Grammar and punctuation issues
  • Repeated words and awkward phrasing
  • Capitalization or singular-and-plural issues
