- Teams managing several paid platforms
- Lean marketers checking dashboards multiple times a day
- Agencies needing alert discipline without flooding Slack
Normalize a small set of paid-media metrics across platforms, learn the normal operating range, and send a Slack alert only when a movement is material, persistent, and supported by enough data to deserve attention.
A low-noise paid-media monitoring system with normalized metrics, baseline ranges, data-quality checks, anomaly severity, diagnostic context, and human-reviewed Slack alerts.

Why this works
Anomaly monitoring is useful only when it understands data quality, normal variance, and the minimum volume needed to act. This workflow builds those rules before alerts, then attaches a diagnostic checklist so Slack receives a small number of actionable exceptions rather than every metric movement.
Expected results
Alert gating
Data quality, volume, materiality, and persistence checked before alerting
The system is designed to suppress missing-data and tiny-volume false alarms.
Noise control
Duplicate anomalies remain one open issue
Owners are not flooded with repeated versions of the same problem.
Calibration
Every alert receives an outcome label
False positives become input for threshold improvement.

Choose the few metrics that can justify action, such as spend pacing, qualified conversions, CPA, conversion rate, or delivery failure, and document the authoritative definition. Set minimum volume, comparison window, persistence requirement, and severity bands for each. Add known exceptions such as launches, planned pauses, seasonality, or tracking maintenance. Review the contract with paid media before writing any alert logic.
An approved metric and alert contract with minimum-volume and persistence rules.
If a metric cannot trigger a specific diagnostic or action, it probably does not need a real-time alert.

Use Claude Code to pull or ingest the approved paid-platform data into a normalized table with platform, account, campaign ID, date or hour, spend, conversions, and required context. Preserve raw source values and log missing accounts, delayed conversions, API failures, and row counts. Reconcile recent totals against native dashboards. The run should fail or degrade visibly when data is incomplete instead of creating a false anomaly from missing rows.
A normalized paid-media table with raw traceability and data-quality status.
A missing API response can look exactly like a 100% conversion drop. Data-quality checks must run before anomaly checks.
