Why this is a gap

Surfaced from a high-intensity complaint with clear willingness to pay and a specific, reachable audience.

The market

Luxury and DTC brands running concurrent Meta and Google campaigns need centralized performance visibility. No search volume data available, but the hiring signal suggests active, ongoing demand from brands managing multi-platform spend.

Competition & the opening

Wedge play crowded — win on a narrow angle Moat 3/10 · thin angle Market 5/10 · a real vertical

Supermetrics, Whatagraph, and native Meta/Google dashboards already capture this space (8/10 crowded). The gap is real-time unified dashboards with luxury-specific metrics (AOV, margin, customer lifetime value) that require deeper integration than generic ad reporting tools.

What's hard to build

Building reliable real-time sync across Meta and Google APIs is hard—rate limits, delayed data propagation (Google lags 24h), and handling attribution conflicts between platforms require sophisticated queueing and reconciliation logic. Maintaining API stability as both platforms change their schemas is an ongoing tax.

Why now

Luxury brands need real-time unified dashboards; Meta and Google Ads data normalization is manual and fragmented.
