Campaign Copy-Generation AI Agent

Draft headlines, descriptions and body copy against the brief, the brand voice and the approved claims library, then route every claim to the person who clears it — copy runs after that, not before.

What this agent does

Drafts the copy, never clears the claim

In

  1. 01

    Read the brief, the brand voice guide and the approved claims library, with what each claim is held on.

  2. 02

    Take the placement, format and character limit from the platform the copy is being written for.

Reason

  1. 03

    Draft headlines, descriptions and body copy, and tie every claim in the draft to a named entry in the library.

  2. 04

    Build the variants a test needs, and check each one still carries its disclosure inside the character limit.

  3. 05

    Localise into the target market's language and its claim rules, rather than translating the approved wording.

Decide

  1. 06

    Hold anything comparative, superlative, or resting on a claim with nothing on file behind it.

  2. 07

    Route every draft to the named brand and legal reviewers before it reaches an ad platform.

Out

  1. 08

    Hand the reviewer the draft, the claims it relies on and the substantiation reference for each one.

  2. 09

    Retain the brief version, the claim entries used, the reviewer's edit and where each variant ran.

Product statement

The agent drafts against an approved claims library. It does not clear a claim, and no copy it writes runs until a named reviewer has signed it.

Example workflow

One brief, end to end

  1. 1Brief receivedA campaign brief, an audience, a placement and the market the copy is for
  2. 2Claims and voice loadedThe approved claims library with its substantiation references, the brand voice guide and the category's rules
  3. 3Copy draftedHeadlines, descriptions and body copy per placement, each claim tied to the library entry it came from
  4. 4Constraints appliedCharacter limits, disclosure retention, prohibited terms for the category, and the platform's own policy

No human action required

Stages 1 to 4 run without a person in the loop — the draft, its claim references and the platform checks are finished before a reviewer is asked to open anything.

5DecisionSplits on claim grounding and category risk
Every claim grounded

Reaches the reviewer ready to sign.

Claim unsupported or comparative

Held with the line named, not published.

Brand and legal reviewers

Brand checks voice and category fit; legal clears each claim against the substantiation on file, then releases the copy.

Approve · Edit the claim · Send back

Approved — handed back

  1. 6Cleared and publishedThe named reviewers sign the claim; the copy reaches the ad platform after that, on the accounts they approved
  2. 7Outcome evaluatedClaim grounding, disclosure retention, reviewer edits, platform rejections and prohibited-term recall by category

Reviewer edits

Every claim a reviewer rewrites or strikes is counted, by category.

What should not run autonomously

Human approval stays in control

Outside the boundary — human approval required

8 items

  • Clearing a claim for publication.
    • Any comparative claim naming a competitor.
    • Superlative and market-leading claims.
    • Adding a claim the library does not hold.
  • Automation boundary

    Agent acts unaided

    • ✓Draft copy against the brief, the voice guide and the claims library.
    • ✓Build platform variants inside each format's character limit.
    • ✓Flag drafts whose claims have nothing on file, and name the line.
    • ✓Localise into the target market and hold what its rules do not allow.

    Write actions run only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation. Clearing a claim and publishing are not among them.

    • Health, financial, alcohol and child-directed copy.
    • Shortening or removing a required disclosure.
    • Testimonial, endorsement and review content.
  • Changing voice rules, prohibited terms or claim entries.

Example output

One draft, annotated

Everything the agent writes is attached to the claim entry it rests on.

As received

Taken from the brief and the library as they stood — nothing on this side is inferred.

Evidence used

  • Claim entry, dated
  • Brand voice guide
  • Category rule set

Why it is held

A headline implies a comparison the brief never made, with nothing on file.

What the score decides

It decides how closely a reviewer reads the draft, not whether the claim is defensible.

Action

ApproveEdit the claimSend back

Value

Where AI adds value

The same four claims, placed at the point in the workflow where each one applies.

Where the value lands

Value 01 – 04

Every brief

From the campaign brief and the voice guide

03Claims & voice

Write from the claims that exist

Draft against the approved claims library and the brand voice guide, with each line tied to the substantiation reference behind it.

01Approved path

Take the drafting off the queue

Placement variants, character limits and locale versions are produced before a reviewer opens the file, so review is reading rather than writing.

02Human review

Surface the claim before it runs

A line with nothing on file behind it is held now, rather than found later by a platform rejection, a competitor's counsel or a regulator.

04

Build an evidence trail

Retain the brief version, the claim entries used, the substantiation references, the reviewer's edit and where each variant ran — on both paths.

Integrations

Agent controls

Six layers between the model and the ad platform

Each control wraps the one inside it. A draft clears every layer before it is published, and none of them stands in for the person who signs the claim.

How Nestack evaluates it

Evaluate the claim, not only the copy.

Coverage runs the whole depth of the workflow, and every layer is cut by slice.

Surface — the draft a reviewer opens

  1. E1Claim substantiationDoes every claim in the draft resolve to an entry on file?
  2. E2Step-level evaluationDid it read the current brief, voice guide and category rule set?
  3. E3Constraint retentionDo disclosures survive the character limit, and are the variants actually different?
  4. E4Brand-voice adherenceDoes someone from the brand team rate the copy as on voice?
  5. E5Slice evaluationHow does performance change across categories, platforms and locales?
  6. E6Business outcomeReviewer edits, platform rejections and claims pulled after clearance.

Failure modes

Where each failure originates in the agent

Seven failure modes plotted against the five stages of the agent lifecycle.

    • CG-04

      Comparison with no evidence

      Clears the term check with no test on file.

    • CG-05

      Disclosure lost to length

      A required qualifier is dropped to make length.

    Stage checks

    Character limits, disclosures and prohibited terms

  4. 04 · Locale & release

    1 mode

    • CG-06

      Localisation moves the claim

      The translated line asserts more than the source.

    Stage routes

    Only to the reviewer and account a person approved

  5. 05 · Change / Version

    1 mode

    • CG-07

      Silent voice drift

      A prompt or model change moves tone unnoticed.

    Stage tracks

    Model, prompt, voice-guide and claims-entry changes

  • Sev-1 · a claim runs with nothing behind it
  • Sev-2 · the copy says more than was approved
  • Sev-3 · quality drifts, review absorbs it

Affected slices

The risk is not spread evenly across categories

Aggregate review-edit rates can look acceptable while a few categories carry nearly all of the unsupported claims, the held drafts and the escalations to legal. Nestack reports performance by slice, not only in total.

Slice performance — reported separately, not only in aggregate

Bar: failure-rate lift vs. approved-boilerplate baseline · scale 0–4.0× · tick marks the 2.0× review threshold

2 of 4 slices over threshold

Evidence-linked improvement

The fix usually belongs to the claims library, not the prompt

Most drafts held for legal are held because the library is thin, stale or silent on the claim the brief asked for, not because the model wrote badly.

Improvement cycle · five stages

Switchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn

  1. 01

    Detect

    Held drafts, reviewer edits or platform rejections rise in one category or locale.

  2. 02

    Diagnose

    Traced to a missing claim entry, a stale one, a voice rule or the prompt.

  3. 03

    Improve

    The entry, rule or prompt is corrected, re-approved by legal or brand, and version-linked.

  4. 04

    Verify

    Re-run against held-out briefs from that category, including the lines legal struck.

  5. 05

    Learn

    The struck line becomes a regression case and the library entry gains its source.

  6. Learn → Detect

    The return edge. Every cycle also re-dates the claims the agent may write from — cleared last quarter is not cleared now.

Typical build scope

Twelve workstreams across six weeks

The build scope read against the delivery timeline. Week structure follows the six-week plan — discovery, claims and voice, drafting and constraints, evaluation, localisation and platform, then production validation and handover.

At the end of W6
Copy has run under review and a named person has cleared every claim, then Agent Care takes over monitoring.
