FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI change my commission rates?

    No. The AI can only read the program details. You must manually update rates within the Adtraction dashboard.

  • 02

    Does the AI see my payout history?

    No. This specific task only pulls program structures and current rates, not historical transaction or payout data.

  • 03

    Can I audit programs that aren't in Adtraction?

    No. The AI only has access to the data provided through the Adtraction connection.

  • 04

    How does the AI know if a rate is wrong?

    The AI doesn't know your intent. You have to provide the correct rates or a reference document for it to compare against.
