The Ads Manager is where paid advertising lives in Pinnora. Every studio up to now has made you a creative. This is the one place where you connect an ad account, push a creative out as a paid ad, and read back what it did.
Three tabs sit across the top. Performance holds your own numbers, Library holds the creatives you have pushed, and Market lets you search what competitors are running. Underneath sits the structure every ads tool uses: campaigns hold ad sets, and ad sets hold ads.
Be clear-eyed before you start. The connect, push, and read machinery is built and works, but it is Meta-first and barely used. No ad has launched in production yet. Pushes to Google and TikTok record as simulated unless those platforms' credentials are set on the server, and the analysis tools stay quiet until live numbers flow in.
This chapter teaches the real path start to finish: connect a Meta account, push a single-image creative, and read it back. Where the product does less than its label suggests, the chapter says so.
