In this guide, you’ll explore five proven Andromeda AI campaign structures designed to scale efficiently, reduce fatigue, and maximize ROI.

What Makes Andromeda AI Different in 2026?
Andromeda isn’t incremental, it’s a complete rewrite. The system analyzes Entity IDs (unique creative identifiers) across thousands of user signals to match ads dynamically. Key shifts:
- Creative = Targeting: Visual uniqueness determines audience reach
- Signal Density Wins: Fewer ad sets = faster learning
- Consolidation Rules: One campaign per objective maximizes data flow
- Weekly Refresh Required: Fatigue kills delivery after 7-10 days
Old Way (2024): 12 ad sets × narrow interests × split budgets
Andromeda Way (2026): 1 campaign × broad targeting × 15 creatives
This architecture gives Andromeda the inputs it needs for precise buyer matching.
