Who This Is For / When to Use

Use AI-powered targeting if you:

  • Run ads on Facebook or Instagram

  • Want interest-based targeting without manual research

  • Need retargeting or lookalike audiences

  • Want flexibility between narrow or broad audiences

How AI Targeting Works

When you create an ad:

  • AI analyzes your prompt

  • Relevant interests are recommended automatically

  • Targeting is optimized for Facebook and Instagram

You can review and edit all recommendations before launch.

Reviewing Recommended Interests

  1. Create an ad using the AI prompt.

  2. Open the Targeting section.

  3. Review the recommended interests.

  4. Add or remove interests as needed.

AI suggestions are optional and fully editable.

Narrowing Your Audience

You can narrow targeting by combining interests.

Example:

  • Interest: Fitness

  • Narrowed by: Business Page Admins

This helps reach more specific, high-intent audiences.

Using Broad Targeting

You can also remove all interest targeting:

  • Leave the audience wide open

  • Allow Facebook’s algorithm to optimize delivery

Broad targeting can perform well for some campaigns.

Using Retargeting Audiences

You can quickly add retargeting:

  • Create a retargeting audience in one click

  • Select an existing custom audience from your Facebook ad account

Retargeting helps re-engage users who already interacted with your business.

Creating Lookalike Audiences

To create a lookalike audience:

  1. Select an Audience Source.

  2. Choose a Country for the lookalike audience.

Important:

  • The selected country is required by Facebook

  • This setting does not affect your ad’s location targeting

Location Targeting Control

For location targeting, you can:

  • Target anywhere in the world

  • Select specific countries, cities, or regions

  • Use a radius around your business location

Location targeting is always configurable manually.

AI Recommendations vs Manual Control

Kyrios AI Ads:

  • Recommend interests and audiences

  • Suggest targeting structures

You:

  • Approve or modify targeting

  • Control locations, interests, and audiences

You always have final control before launching.
