ALTERNATIVES · UPDATED JULY 2026
AdRoll alternatives
Written by Cesara, who is one of the alternatives. We’ll tell you plainly when to stay with AdRoll.
What is the best AdRoll alternative?
It depends on why you’re leaving. If you want to optimize the Google, Meta, and TikTok accounts you already run rather than buy media through a network, the answer is Cesara. If your spend is overwhelmingly on Meta and creative is the problem, Madgicx. If you want to own your own automation rules cheaply, Bïrch (formerly Revealbot), from $49/mo.
If retargeting and display across many channels — display, CTV, native, and social, with attribution stitched across them — is genuinely the job: stay with AdRoll. That’s exactly what it’s built for.
The real options
If you want to optimize the accounts you already run
Cesara(that’s us)
Optimizes Google, Meta, and TikTok daily on its own — bids adjusted, losers paused, budget reallocated — on the accounts you already own, and routes only the expensive decisions to you. Flat, published pricing ($199/$499/$999 by ad spend), and it cannot raise your total budget without your one-click approval. It manages your own spend rather than buying media through a network.
The catch: Cesara doesn't buy media or run retargeting across a display, CTV, or native network. If cross-channel retargeting is the job, that's AdRoll's game, not ours — and Cesara covers Google, Meta, and TikTok only.

Madgicx
An agentic Meta ads platform built for ecommerce, with deep creative analysis and automation, plus reporting that pulls in Google, TikTok, GA4, Shopify, and Klaviyo. Strong if Facebook and Instagram creative is the problem you're solving.
The catch: The price isn't shown on the pricing page — it asks your spend and says to see the price inside the app. Meta-first, so other channels are reporting rather than optimization.

Bïrch (formerly Revealbot)
A mature rule engine across Meta, Google, TikTok, and Snapchat, from $49/mo on annual billing. You define the automation and it enforces it precisely and cheaply.
The catch: You own every rule and its maintenance, and overage fees apply if you exceed your tier's spend limit.
Cesara vs Revealbot →The three reasons people actually leave
1. They want to optimize their own accounts — not buy a network
AdRoll is a place to buy media: retargeting and display across its own display, CTV, native, in-app, and social inventory. That’s powerful when reaching across channels is the job. But plenty of teams don’t want a new network to buy through — they already run Google, Meta, and TikTok, and what they want is for those accounts to be optimized well, every day. That’s a different product. Cesara connects to the accounts you own and does the daily work there.
2. They want to see the price
AdRoll’s pricing is dynamic CPM that moves with demand, plus self-service, managed, and annual options, rather than a flat published number. Some people are fine with that. Others want to know the cost before they commit. Our prices are on our pricing page, in full, with no percentage of spend and no media markup.
3. They want an approval gate
When a platform buys media on your behalf, spend can move in ways you don’t directly control. Cesara is built the other way: it can do anything reversible on its own, but raising your total budget, launching a campaign, or changing creative all require your one-click approval. Read how that budget guardrail works.
Before you switch, ask this
Whatever you move to, get a straight answer to one question: can it increase my total ad spend without asking me? Cesara is built so it can do anything reversible on its own, and nothing expensive without your approval.
