After you start a run, AdLoft opens the generating screen (Documentation Index

/dashboard/campaigns/ai-builder/{runId}) and works in the background.
The generating screen
While a run is in progress you’ll see:- A note that generation runs in the background — you can leave and return.
- A live “thinking” line showing the current agent and what it’s doing (for example, “Step 3 of 7: Targeting”).
- An overall progress bar (generation typically takes 3–5 minutes).
- A grid of all seven agents showing which are pending, active, complete, or failed.
Run statuses
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Queued | Created and about to start. |
| Running | Agents are executing. |
| Completed | Done — your draft is ready. |
| Failed | A step hit a terminal error (credits are refunded). |
| Cancelled | You cancelled it. |
| Interrupted | A step stalled and the run can be resumed for free. |
When it completes
A completed run opens an editable campaign draft and shows an AI strategy summary with:- The objective, strategies, and lookback window used.
- The campaign rationale and key bullet points.
- The creative selection and per-ad-set hypotheses, audiences, optimization goals, and budgets.
Cancel a run
While a run is queued or running, you can cancel it. AdLoft stops the workflow and settles your credits, refunding the portion that wasn’t used.Resume or start over
If a run failed or was interrupted, the screen offers:- Resume — picks up from the last completed step.
- Start over — returns you to setup for a fresh run.
Resuming a failed run re-charges the quote (the failed run was already refunded). Resuming an interrupted run is free, since it was never refunded.
Common errors
AI Launch shows a specific message when something goes wrong. Examples:- Landing page unreachable — check the URL and try again.
- Gateway rate-limited or timed out — try resuming in a few minutes.
- No creative assets — add at least one image or video to the brand, then try again.
- Not launch-ready — open the draft to fix the highlighted settings.
