5kinds of wasted spend
Each category carries its own detection logic, kept in an editable skill file instead of the model's weights.
My part Audited what was real and what was still mocked.
42blocks scored per campaign week
Seven days by six time bands, every block scored on what it spent against what it converted.
My part Turned user priorities into the ranking every design was judged against.

Feedback
Do not take my word for it. Every card is real feedback from an Upwork client or a LinkedIn recommendation. Open one and it takes you to where it was written.
