# Does Porter's AI need my approval before it spends or changes anything?

How Porter's Automation keeps you in control: paused by default, permission asked before any change, and everything can be undone.

Short answer: yes, always. Porter's AI never spends your ad budget or changes a live campaign without you saying go.

### Everything starts paused

When Porter's AI creates a campaign, an ad, or a creative, it's created **paused by default**. Nothing goes live until you turn it on — either by telling the AI to activate it, or flipping it on yourself directly in the platform.

### You're asked before anything is written

Before executing a change to your account, Porter's skills ask for your permission. You see what's about to happen before it happens, not after.

### You can undo it

If something was created or changed and you want it gone, changes can be reverted.

### Want an extra layer of safety?

Some teams create a separate test ad account, let Porter run there first, and only move a setup to the live account once it looks right. This isn't required — it's just an option if you want to see Porter in action before it touches your main account.
