Sample data vs your data

See pacing, spend-at-risk, and competitor offer tracking fully populated before you connect a single ad account.

What you get

• Ad accounts, campaigns, and 30 days of spend history, already showing a pacing overspend, a spend anomaly, and creative fatigue on different campaigns
• Watched competitors with offers read from their own sites (including a price match, an ended offer and a changed one), the pages being watched, plus a competitor-new-creative alert
• A one-click path back to empty when you're ready to connect your own accounts

What sample data is

Sample data is a showcase dataset, not a starting catalog: a disconnected ad connection, ad accounts, campaigns, spend history, watched competitors, their watched pages and offers, and a full run's worth of alerts and recommendations, all loaded at once so you can see MarginTide working immediately.

Sample mode blocks real syncs

While your workspace has sample data loaded, it's in sample mode — real syncs and CSV imports are blocked until you clear it out. This keeps sample and real spend from mixing.

Switching to your own data

1. Go to Settings → General.
2. Under Danger zone, select Reset workspace data.
3. Confirm. This clears the sample connection, accounts, campaigns, spend, watched competitors, watched pages, offers, alerts and recommendations, taking your workspace back to empty.
4. Follow Get set up in four steps to connect your real ad accounts.

Resetting only clears workspace data; it does not touch your account, membership, billing plan, or integration configuration.
