In Partnership with Particl

10,000 Brands Can't Be Wrong. This Is How They Stay Ahead.

Most brands find out what their competitors are doing weeks too late. By then, the opportunity is already gone. Particl makes sure you see every move in real time before it costs you.

The AI Connector feeds live competitor intelligence straight into Claude or ChatGPT. Ask what's working, where they're pulling back, and where the gap is in your category, and get answers pulled from real data in seconds.

• HydroJug drove 300% more revenue on a new product launch using Particl's real-time pricing intelligence
• Chubbies relaunched their men's pants line using Particl’s competitor sell-through data and turned it into a seven-figure top 10 seller
• SWIM USA validated new swimwear lines with Particl's trend and assortment tracking before a single unit was ordered

Particl sits on 40B+ transactions and $500B in monitored retail revenue. Brands like L'Oreal, Everlane, Knix, and HexClad already run on it.

📝 Let AI Agents Run Your Meta Ads

Looking to stop manually managing your Meta ad campaigns? AI agents can now plug directly into your ad account and handle analysis, optimisation, and execution in real time.

Steps to Connect AI Agents to Your Ad Account:

1️⃣ Choose Your Setup Path
Pick between two options based on your comfort level. The MCP connector is the easier route if you already use an AI chat tool. Simply authorise it against your business ad account and start promoting right away. No code or terminal required.

2️⃣ Start With Read-Only Access
Before letting the agent make changes, run it in analysis mode for at least a week. Compare its recommendations against your manual decisions to build confidence in its logic.

3️⃣ Spot Creative Fatigue Automatically
Prompt your agent to flag any ad whose CTR drops significantly below the account average over 48 hours, pause it, and suggest new creative directions based on your top-performing angles.

4️⃣ Optimize Budgets Against Real Revenue
Connect your store revenue data to your ad account metrics and let the agent adjust spend based on actual profit, not just platform-reported returns.

5️⃣ Scale Creative Testing Effortlessly
Feed your strongest existing creatives into the agent, route them through an image generation tool, and auto-produce new variations ready for your testing campaign.

The Takeaway
AI agents are no longer just writing assistants. They are becoming full media buying co-pilots capable of executing real decisions inside your ad account. Start with one low-stakes account this week, build trust in the system, and scale from there.

📝 How to Replace Siri With a Free Local AI Model

Tired of Siri falling short on complex questions? You can now replace it with a free, locally installed AI model on your iPhone that works without the internet and keeps your data completely private.

Steps to Set Up a Local AI Model on Your iPhone:

1️⃣ Download Locally AI From the App Store
Search for Locally AI on the App Store and install it. Once inside the app, browse the available models. A great starting point is Google's open-source Gemma model, which is lightweight, fast, and delivers reliable results for everyday tasks.

2️⃣ Download Your Chosen Model
Select your preferred model and begin the download. Keep the app open throughout the process to ensure the download completes without interruption.

3️⃣ Bind It to Your Action Button
Open your iPhone Settings and search for Action Button. Swipe to the Shortcut option, search for Locally AI, and select Voice Mode. This replaces Siri on your Action Button with your new local AI assistant.

4️⃣ Activate and Start Using It
Press the Action Button and wait for the chime. On first use, the app will prompt you to download a speech-to-text model. Install it and you are ready to go. Start asking questions just as you would with Siri.

The Takeaway
Locally AI puts a private, capable AI assistant right on your iPhone at zero cost. No internet dependency, no data sharing, and no subscription fees. Set it up once and upgrade how you interact with your phone every single day.
