Agency operations built in
AdRow's multi-level role hierarchy, impersonation, and per-account permissions let agencies operate securely across multiple clients. Hawky is built for creative teams analyzing ad performance, not for multi-client agency operations.
Complementary tools, not competitors
Hawky and AdRow can work together: use Hawky to analyze creative performance and detect fatigue, then use AdRow to manage campaigns, apply rules, and coordinate your team. They address different parts of the advertising workflow.
