# Runs & results

> Track generation progress, cancel or resume a run, and review the generated draft.

After you start a run, AdLoft opens the generating screen (`/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.

The screen refreshes automatically.

## 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.

From there, edit anything in the four-step builder and publish through the normal [review and publish](/campaigns/review-publish) flow.

<Tip>
  AI choices are starting points, not lock-in. Every field stays editable in the regular campaign builder.
</Tip>

## 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.

<Note>
  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.
</Note>

## 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.

Most non-retryable errors refund your credits automatically. See [Credits](/ai-builder/credits).
