Choose Adjust if

Mobile app and game publishers spending meaningfully on paid user acquisition who need trustworthy attribution, fraud protection and iOS privacy measurement.

  • Mature, widely integrated SDK used by large app publishers
  • Free Base tier lets small developers start without a contract
  • Strong fraud prevention and privacy-framework support

Look elsewhere if: Web-first DTC brands or apps with little paid marketing (Northbeam, Rockerbox, Google Analytics).

Choose Synter if

Growth teams and agencies that run several ad channels and want an AI agent to execute changes with approvals and spend caps.

  • Read-only reporting across connected platforms is free
  • One agent connection replaces many separate ad managers
  • No percentage of ad spend; platforms bill media directly

Look elsewhere if: Advertisers who only run Meta or search campaigns and prefer a mature single-channel tool (Madgicx, Optmyzr).
