Archived raw composite · not outcome confidence

The archived runner returned SHARPEN. This is a historical rule label, not a current decision recommendation. No matched-cohort sample or repeated-run estimate is attached to this example.

Meta has no held-out validation. A platform match alone also does not establish coverage for a market, category or format. Keep these examples directional unless the specific cohort evidence supports a stronger statement.

An edit to test.

Test an opening that joins the product, brand and intended benefit in one clear moment. Keep the original, record the change and agree the outcome measure before testing. There is no measured score uplift or campaign result for this proposed revision.

Coverage limits.

This archive identifies the platform and country, but does not attach a matched-cohort sample, a percentile calculation or a repeat-run stability estimate. We therefore do not rank this ad in a category quintile. Validation of the separate platform-native attribute model does not validate these five KPI outputs.

Record the human choice.

Use the example to frame a review question. A human reviewer should record the brief, chosen revision, proposed test and actual result. No client acceptance or in-market outcome is claimed for this case. See the methodology and the brand-cue review guide.

Archived run evidence. Scored 18 May 2026. Raw scores and classifications are preserved from the archived scoring output. Prompt hash, temperature, seed, matched-cohort coverage and repeat-run stability were not recorded in that archive. All interpretations here are directional. These are real ad assets with model-generated diagnostics, not synthetic consumer measurements. No sales, ROAS, conversion, retention, emotional-strength or brand-recall result is established. Current methodology and separate model-validation evidence.
