How does the negative keyword tool find wasted spend?
The AI automatically scans your search term reports and analyzes terms against metrics and relevancy to your landing pages. Each suggestion includes confidence scores, clicks, and cost data ranked by how much you're spending, along with qualitative reasoning explaining why the term should be negative beyond just the numbers.
