Overview

Maxed needed install volume with creative variety: hook tests, creator angles, and proof before budget expansion. Clippable's performance organic model fit mobile growth better than CPM-only paid social.

The challenge

  • Paid social CPMs climbed while creative fatigue set in after a handful of static ads.
  • Install attribution was noisy when creators posted outside a tracked workflow.
  • Small growth team could not manually negotiate, brief, and review dozens of clip variants.

What they ran on Clippable

  • Clippy generated brief variants; creators submitted qualified clips for approval.
  • Payouts triggered on live posts that met spec, not on promises or drafts.
  • Installs were compared clip-to-clip so Maxed reallocated toward winning hooks.
