Guide to DCO Tools

NEXD’s DCO Tools help you deliver smarter, higher-performing campaigns by letting you automate creative performance and target audiences with precision. These features can be found when you click on a campaign of your choice.

The DCO Tools section includes two key features:

🎯 Creative Optimization

What it does:

Automatically boosts the best-performing creatives in a campaign by optimizing for Click-Through Rate (CTR) or Engagement Rate.

Use when:

  • You have multiple ad variations in a campaign

  • You want to let data decide which creative gets the most budget

  • Your goal is to maximize performance over time without manual tweaks

How to use:

  1. Upload multiple creative versions to your ad set

  2. Choose optimization goal (CTR or Engagement)

  3. NEXD’s engine will monitor and shift budget automatically


🧩 Flights

What it does:

Allows you to show different creatives based on custom rules like date ranges, audience segments, or geography.

Use when:

  • You want to run time-sensitive offers (e.g. week-by-week promos)

  • You need to target different messages to different locations or groups

  • You want control over what creative shows, and when

How to use:

  1. Set up multiple flights with rules (e.g. “Show this ad in Germany from June 1–7”)

  2. Upload creatives for each flight

  3. NEXD will automatically serve the right version based on your rules
