Conversion lag is being treated as weaker demand in the pacing loop.
Stable budget delivery protects advertiser confidence, while responsiveness protects ROAS when demand genuinely changes.
Who you’d be doing this for
“My spend fell off at lunch, then the dashboard caught up after I’d already moved budget elsewhere.”

What is at stake
Forty-two target ROAS campaigns are swinging up to 18% away from hourly pacing targets. You must weigh faster response to real demand against treating delayed measurement as a demand change.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- pacing stability vs. demand responsiveness
- ROAS protection vs. spend recovery
- fast diagnosis vs. verified evidence
