Meta Ads Pre-Launch Checker by WeekendProof

Checks a Meta ad draft before you publish and compares it with your setup sheet: names, targeting, budget, dates and UTM tags.

Check your Meta campaign against your setup sheet before you publish, and catch broken UTM tracking before money is spent. Paste the rows of your sheet (Excel, Google Sheets or CSV) into the panel in Meta Ads Manager, open the campaign, ad set or ad you built, and see what matches and what does not, mismatches first. What it checks against your sheet: • Campaign: name, objective, budget, daily or lifetime. • Ad set: name, budget, start and end dates, locations (with radius), excluded locations, age, gender, Advantage+ or manual placements. • Ad: name, website URL and URL parameters (UTM tags). What it checks with no sheet at all: • UTM tracking: missing, blank, duplicate or misspelled tags, spaces and broken encoding, with a cleaned version to copy back in one click. • Links that lose your tags: link-in-bio and short-link pages such as linktr.ee and bit.ly. • Names that disagree with the targeting, like "Women" or "25-34" in the name while the ad set targets everyone. • Meta's default names, a leftover "- Copy", and a daily budget with no end date. • Meta's own errors: the count and each error, shown at the top so you see them before you click Publish. When everything matches, copy the QC log (what was checked, sheet vs build) into your ticket or chat as the sign-off. It never guesses. If a value cannot be read for sure, such as a date like 09/11/2026 or an excluded city your sheet does not mention, it says "not checked" and why, instead of showing a false match. Private by design: everything runs in your browser and the extension makes no network requests. Your pasted sheet is saved only on your computer, per ad account, until you click Remove.
