I have lost count of the times I wrote ad copy, hit submit, and then waited. The approval email was the only signal I got, and it was usually a rejection — sent a day after the campaign was supposed to be live. By the time it arrived I had already told a teammate the ad was running.
AdPrecheck is the thing I wish I had run first. You paste your ad copy before you submit it to the platform, and it returns a scored pre-check report. It looks for a specific set of red flags that platforms reject on repeat: personal-attribute references (calling out someone's age, gender, or similar), unrealistic promises ("guaranteed" results, income you cannot back), and health or income claims that need substantiation. For each finding it hands you a fix checklist — what to cut or reword before you try again. It is decision-support, meant to catch the obvious stuff in about sixty seconds, not to replace the platform's review.
I keep the scope tight on purpose. The report scores what is checkable in the text. It does not know the platform's mood that week, and it cannot see the image or the landing page. So it is a first pass, the one that catches the mistakes you would be embarrassed to have rejected for.
The sixty-second promise is the part I held onto. You are not opening a dashboard or writing a brief; you paste the copy you were about to submit and read a short report back. The fix checklist is the bit that makes it usable — each finding points at the phrase and suggests the cut or rewording, so the loop is paste, read, edit, submit, not paste and hope. For a solo maker running a few campaigns a month, that is the difference between a rejection email tomorrow and a clean submit today. It will not catch everything a human reviewer would, but it removes the class of rejection that was always avoidable.
What it deliberately does not do
- It is not an approval. A clean report does not mean the platform will accept your ad. Their policy engine is final; this is a pre-check you run on your own.
- It flags text only. Personal-attribute issues in an image, a misleading visual, or a landing page that contradicts the copy are outside what pasted text can show.
- It scores against common red-flag patterns, not the full policy of any one platform. Coverage is the categories above plus a fix checklist — not an exhaustive legal read of every ad network's rules.
- No claim that fixing every flag guarantees approval or performance. Fewer rejections, ideally, not a promise of spend or conversions.
AdPrecheck is $19/mo, runs in the browser, no account required to try. Paste the copy, read the flags, fix the easy ones — then submit with fewer reasons to wait on a rejection.
