We're expanding our execution pipeline to support more channels and deeper account-level intelligence. Stay tuned for the next release.
From a confidence interval to a live change in TikTok, sized to match
Pangolin's model is built for a channel with limited history, and shows the uncertainty rather than hiding it. Once you approve a budget move, Pangolin executes it directly in TikTok Ads Manager, sized to how confident the model currently is.
The problem with manual TikTok Ads management
New channels don't have years of spend and revenue history to model against, so any recommendation should come with real uncertainty attached - and that uncertainty should affect how much changes, not just what's reported.
In practice, teams either wait for a certainty that a data-sparse channel will never quite deliver, or manually resize TikTok budget test-by-test, logging into TikTok Ads Manager each time evidence shifts, while the account runs on outdated settings in between.
This delay means campaign dollars sit stagnant in non-performing sets during crucial high-momentum testing windows.
The Testing Disadvantage
How Pangolin's TikTok Ads Assistant works
Pangolin's Bayesian model uses informed priors where TikTok data is sparse, and narrows the confidence interval as more data accumulates.
What the assistant does today, and what it recommends
Pangolin surfaces a confidence-weighted budget recommendation for TikTok, routes it for approval, and executes approved changes directly in TikTok Ads Manager.
Why this is different
A channel with three months of data gets smaller, more cautious executed changes than one with three years. Pangolin handles uncertainty natively.
No one has to log into TikTok Ads Manager each time the evidence shifts. Approved budget adjustments sync to the native API dynamically.
Bayesian priors let Pangolin start executing sensibly-sized changes sooner, rather than waiting for a certainty that may never arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much TikTok spend history do I need before Pangolin will execute a change?
Some estimate is possible from early data; executed changes are simply smaller and more conservative until the interval narrows and the model collects more data.
Will Pangolin execute changes automatically, or does someone need to approve first?
Every change is routed for human approval before execution. You always hold absolute control over budget deployment.
Does this work the same way for any new channel, not just TikTok?
Yes - the same confidence-weighted approach applies to execution on any channel with limited history. It ensures you test safely and scale responsibly.
Can Pangolin manage TikTok spend across multiple ad accounts?
Yes, recommendations and executed changes are visible and actioned across every connected TikTok Ads account from a single view.
How does Pangolin decide how big a change to make?
The size of every executed change is tied to the width of the model's confidence interval at that moment. Wider intervals, typical in the first weeks on a new channel, produce smaller, more conservative moves. As the interval narrows with more data, Pangolin sizes larger changes using the same underlying process.
