I Got Banned. A Lot.

I used to run dropshipping ads. I lost thousands to sudden bans with zero clear explanation. So I built something that actually helps media buyers avoid the same pain.

My Story

A few years ago I was deep in dropshipping. Like many, I spent hours testing products, writing copy, and burning ad budgets only to wake up to account restrictions or outright bans with no real feedback from Meta or TikTok.

I never found out what triggered the violations because I never got feedback. I learned the hard way which words, images, and claims were red flags. But you don't have to follow in my footsteps. One wrong creative could cost hundreds or thousands in lost revenue and wasted spend.

Eventually I got tired of the guessing game. I wanted a tool that could scan an ad creative before I hit submit, something that would tell me exactly which policies I was breaking and why, so I could fix it and move on.

Nothing like that existed at the price point or simplicity I needed. So I built it myself.

What Mediacrater Actually Is

Mediacrater is a straightforward browser extension and web tool that lets media buyers, freelancers, and small agencies:

  • Upload video or image creatives
  • Select the platform (Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, YouTube, etc.)
  • Get an instant list of policy violations (if any) + a confidence score
  • Fix issues before wasting budget on rejected ads

No AI hype. No black-box magic. Just clear, actionable feedback so you stop guessing and start scaling.

Why Privacy-First Matters to Me

I hated how much data ad platforms already collect. I didn’t want to build something that made the problem worse. That’s why everything runs locally on your device. We don’t store your creatives for extended periods of time, and even then, it’s anonymized and deleted immediately.

Who This Is For

Freelance media buyers, small agencies, DTC brands, and anyone running paid ads who’s tired of:

  • Sudden account restrictions with zero explanation
  • Wasting hours appealing vague violations
  • Losing money on ads that never get approved

If you've ever screamed at your screen after seeing "Ad rejected" this tool was built for you.
