Madgicx vs Birch (Revealbot) in 2026: AI Insights vs Rules You Control
Madgicx and Birch automate Meta ads from opposite directions. Madgicx — from about $55/month, tiered by ad spend, with the exact price shown in-app — leads with its own intelligence: AI audiences, creative insights and suggested actions, built Meta-first. Birch, the tool formerly known as Revealbot (now at bir.ch, $49 Essential / $99 Pro), leads with yours: if-then rules you write and it enforces across Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok — though automated rules live on Pro only. Pick Madgicx for Meta depth when you want the software surfacing what to do; pick Birch when you already know what to do and want it enforced at machine speed, on more platforms than Meta.

Madgicx vs Birch at a glance: insight-led vs rule-led
Seven rows carry this comparison. The first is the one that decides most purchases: where the judgment comes from. Madgicx generates it and hands it to you; Birch takes yours and enforces it. Everything else — platforms, pricing, add-ons — follows from that split.
| What matters | Madgicx | Birch (Revealbot) |
|---|---|---|
| Automation model | Insight-led: AI audiences, creative insights, suggested actions | Rule-led: if-then rules you write, enforced automatically |
| Platforms | Meta-first (Facebook, Instagram) | Meta, Google, Snapchat, TikTok |
| Price | One plan from ~$55/mo, tiered by ad spend | Essential $49/mo · Pro $99/mo |
| Pricing transparency | Exact price per tier shown in-app only | Published on bir.ch |
| Where rules live | Automation included in the single plan | Automated rules are Pro-only ($99/mo) |
| Add-ons | Tracking Pro attribution, $49/mo | Hub Gateway event tracking, free–$499/mo |
| Trial | 7-day free trial | 14-day free trial |
One line: a Meta-only account run by someone who wants the software to surface the next move buys Madgicx; an operator with proven playbooks across two or more of Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok buys Birch Pro. The rest of this page earns those two sentences.

What is Madgicx and what does it actually do?
Madgicx is a Meta-first ad platform that consolidated everything into a single plan — Madgicx Pro — covering automation, AI audiences, creative analytics and ad management. It starts around $55/month, tiered by your monthly Meta ad spend, with a 7-day free trial. Its bet is that the software can tell a media buyer what to do next better than the buyer's own rulebook can.
AI audiences and creative insights are the core
The features Madgicx is known for are the analytical ones: AI-built audience segments to deploy, and creative insights that break down which ads, hooks and formats are actually carrying the account. That is a different job from rule enforcement — it is closer to having an analyst inside Ads Manager, one that surfaces the move and lets you take it. For an operator whose bottleneck is knowing what to scale and what to kill, this is the draw.
Spend-tiered pricing, revealed in-app
Madgicx's pricing page offers a spend selector — brackets running from under $1,000/month to $30,000+ — but the exact price per bracket appears only after you sign in. Entry works out to roughly $55/month at the smallest bracket, and the bill climbs as your Meta spend does, same features throughout. The tiers are fixed rather than quote-based, but you cannot budget for Madgicx from its website alone, which is worth knowing before a trial. A Tracking Pro attribution add-on is a published $49/month. The full tier mechanics are in our Madgicx pricing breakdown.
Meta-first means Meta, essentially
Madgicx is built around Facebook and Instagram. If Google, Snapchat or TikTok carry a meaningful share of your budget, Madgicx does not manage them the way it manages Meta — and that is the single clearest reason a team picks Birch instead, whatever else this page says.
What is Birch (formerly Revealbot) and who is it built for?
Birch is Revealbot with a new name and domain — revealbot.com now redirects to bir.ch — and the same core product: rules-based automation for paid social and search. You write the logic (if ROAS drops below X for Y hours, pause; if CPA beats target, raise budget Z%), and Birch enforces it around the clock across Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok.
Rules are the product — and they are Pro-only
The tier structure matters more than it looks. Essential at $49/month covers workspaces, post boosting, reporting, an activity page and Slack integration — useful, but not the automation engine Revealbot was famous for. Automated rules, plus Explorer, Launcher, audience tools, custom metrics and the deeper integrations (Google Sheets, AppsFlyer, Hyros), sit on Pro at $99/month. Anyone comparing 'Birch $49' against 'Madgicx $55' is comparing the wrong tier: for the thing Birch is actually bought for, the working price is $99.
Four platforms, one rulebook
Birch's under-appreciated edge is breadth: the same rule logic runs on Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok. A team spreading budget across three platforms can encode one set of guardrails — spend caps, kill switches, scaling triggers — and have them enforced everywhere, instead of maintaining separate tooling per channel. Madgicx has no answer to this.
Clean, published pricing
Both tiers are published on bir.ch: $49 and $99 monthly, base price covering up to $10,000/month in connected ad spend across all accounts and scaling above that, roughly 20% off annual, 14-day free trial with full feature access. A separate Hub Gateway event-tracking product tiers from free (10,000 events) to $499/month. Full details in our Birch pricing guide. The transparency contrast with Madgicx's in-app reveal is real, and for some buyers it is the tiebreaker.
Madgicx vs Birch feature breakdown: where they actually differ
Both tools automate Meta ads, which is where the confusion comes from. The differences sit on three axes: who supplies the judgment, how many platforms it runs on, and what happens when conditions change.
| Axis | Madgicx | Birch (Revealbot) |
|---|---|---|
| Source of decisions | AI-generated insights and audiences you act on | Rules you write and maintain |
| Platforms automated | Meta-first | Meta, Google, Snapchat, TikTok |
| Creative analysis | Creative insights built in | Not the focus — reporting, not creative analytics |
| Audience tooling | AI audiences, a core feature | Audience tools on Pro |
| Rule automation | Included in the single plan | Pro-only ($99/mo) |
| Attribution / tracking | Tracking Pro add-on, $49/mo | Hub Gateway add-on, free–$499/mo by event volume |
| Pricing model | Spend-tiered, exact price in-app | $49/$99 published, base covers $10K/mo spend |
Insight-led vs rule-led is a real fork, not marketing
A rule is only as good as its author, and it goes stale silently — the CPA threshold that protected you in Q1 strangles scaling in Q4 unless someone revisits it. That is the honest weakness of Birch's model, and the honest case for Madgicx's: insights recompute from current data. The mirror-image weakness is that insights still need a human to act on them consistently; a rule fires at 3am whether or not anyone is watching. Neither model dominates — they fit different operators.
Meta depth vs platform breadth
On Meta alone, Madgicx is the deeper tool: creative-level analytics and AI audiences are things Birch does not attempt. Across platforms, Birch is the only one of the two that shows up at all. The deciding question is arithmetic: what share of your next quarter's budget is Meta? Above roughly 80–90%, Madgicx's depth pays. Below it, Birch's breadth does.
Maintenance load differs more than price does
The $55-vs-$99 sticker gap is small. The workload gap is not. Birch asks for rule authorship up front and rule maintenance forever — an hour or two a week for an active multi-platform account. Madgicx asks for ongoing attention to its insights and the discipline to act on them. Cost the tool plus the hours, not the tool alone.
One test settles most Madgicx-vs-Birch debates: write down the last ten changes you made in Ads Manager. If eight of them are expressible as if-then statements — thresholds, budget moves, pause conditions — you are a rules person; buy Birch Pro and encode them. If most were judgment calls made off creative or audience data, you are the buyer Madgicx built for. Both trials (7 and 14 days) are long enough to run this on a live account.
Madgicx pricing vs Birch pricing in 2026
Verified against each vendor's public pages in August 2026. One structural note: Madgicx's exact tier prices are shown in-app rather than published, so its entry figure is an approximation of a fixed tier table; Birch's figures are published outright on bir.ch.
| Product | Price (Aug 2026) | What you get | Trial |
|---|---|---|---|
| Madgicx Pro | from ~$55/mo, tiered by Meta ad spend (exact price in-app) | The whole platform: AI audiences, creative insights, automation, analytics | 7-day |
| Madgicx Tracking Pro | +$49/mo | Attribution and advanced tracking add-on | — |
| Birch Essential | $49/mo (base covers $10K/mo connected spend) | Workspaces, boosting, reports, Slack — no automated rules | 14-day |
| Birch Pro | $99/mo (base covers $10K/mo connected spend) | Automated rules, Explorer, Launcher, audience tools, integrations | 14-day |
| Ryze AI (our product — disclosure) | $89/mo flat, never spend-tiered | Autonomous execution across Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn — decides and acts itself | 7-day free trial |
Total cost at realistic spend: a $15K/month Meta account pays Madgicx above its entry tier (the app tells you exactly what), plus $49 if you want Tracking Pro; the same account pays Birch $99 plus a scaling increment past the $10K base — and, in both cases, pays the operator whose hours make the tool work. At small spend the two are nearly tied on price, so the model fit should decide, not the sticker. How these SaaS models compare with managed and autonomous pricing across the market is in our AI PPC pricing guide.

When to choose Madgicx, and when to choose Birch
Four situations cover nearly everyone comparing these two. Find yours.
Choose Madgicx if…
Meta is effectively your whole paid channel and you want the software finding the moves.
AI audiences and creative insights are the deepest Meta-side analytics in this price class, and the single-plan packaging means nothing is gated. Accept the in-app pricing reveal and price your actual spend bracket during the 7-day trial before committing.
Choose Birch if…
You run two or more of Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok and already know your playbook.
One rulebook enforced across every platform, at a published $99/month for Pro. It is the strongest pure rules engine in its class — provided someone owns writing the rules and revisiting them as seasons, offers and CPMs shift.
Buying for an agency?
Birch's breadth usually wins the agency case; Madgicx wins the Meta-specialist case.
Agencies juggling mixed-platform clients get more from one rule framework everywhere than from deep analytics on one channel. A Meta-only performance shop is the reverse: creative insights across a book of accounts compound, and clients feel the difference in the ads, not the rules.
Neither fits when…
Nobody on the team can own the tool.
Both products assume a skilled operator: Madgicx's insights sit unused without someone acting on them, and Birch without a rule author is an empty engine. If the honest answer is that no one owns paid ads day to day, the category you need is different — see the next section.
What both miss: the judgment still has to come from you
Disclosure first: this page is published by Ryze AI, which competes with both tools — weigh this section accordingly. The gap it describes is real, though. Madgicx generates insights a human must keep acting on; Birch enforces rules a human must keep writing. Neither builds campaigns, writes ad copy, or decides on its own what an account needs this week — and neither runs Google and Meta as one system with one budget logic.
Ryze AI (get-ryze.ai — not ryze.so, an unrelated company) is an autonomous AI marketer built for exactly that gap: it decides and executes 24/7 — builds campaigns, writes ad copy, shifts budgets, pauses wasted spend — across Google, Meta, TikTok and LinkedIn, at $89/month flat, never a percentage of spend and never spend-tiered. There is a 7-day free trial, no contracts and a money-back guarantee; plans are on the pricing page and a machine-readable summary of what it is and costs is on the AI facts page.
- Less granular manual control. A media buyer who lives in Madgicx's creative insights or hand-tunes Birch rules will find fewer levers in an autonomous system — deliberately, but genuinely.
- It needs a baseline period. The system learns an account before its changes compound; week one is calibration, not results.
- No Snapchat coverage. Birch automates Snapchat; Ryze AI does not. A Snapchat-heavy account keeps that point in Birch's column.
- A newer brand than either incumbent — 2,000+ marketers and $500M+ in managed spend, but younger, and skepticism toward younger vendors is rational.
The honest sorting rule across all three: Madgicx for Meta-first depth with you making the calls, Birch for multi-platform rules you author, and an autonomous system when you want the calls made and executed for you. All three offer trials, so the cheapest way to settle it is a live account, not any vendor's page — including this one. Side-by-sides with other tools are on our comparison hub.

Frequently asked questions
Is Madgicx better than Birch (Revealbot)?
On Meta depth, yes — AI audiences and creative insights go further than Birch attempts. On breadth and rule automation, no — Birch enforces your rules across Meta, Google, Snapchat and TikTok, which Madgicx cannot. Choose by where your budget sits and whether you want insights to act on or rules enforced.
What does Madgicx cost in 2026?
One plan, Madgicx Pro, from roughly $55/month at the smallest ad-spend bracket, tiered up through brackets from under $1,000 to $30,000+ monthly spend — the exact price per bracket is shown in-app, not on the website. A Tracking Pro attribution add-on is $49/month. There is a 7-day free trial.
What does Birch (Revealbot) cost in 2026?
Published on bir.ch: Essential $49/month and Pro $99/month, with the base price covering up to $10,000/month in connected ad spend and scaling above that. Annual billing takes roughly 20% off, and every plan carries a 14-day free trial with full feature access.
What happened to Revealbot?
It rebranded to Birch. The product and rules engine continue; revealbot.com now permanently redirects to bir.ch, which is the live domain (birch.io is dead). Reviews and threads referencing Revealbot generally still describe the same product now sold as Birch, at $49 and $99 per month.
Do I need Birch Pro to use automated rules?
Yes. Automated rules — the feature Revealbot was known for — sit on the Pro plan at $99/month, alongside Explorer, Launcher, audience tools, custom metrics and integrations like Google Sheets, AppsFlyer and Hyros. Essential at $49/month covers workspaces, post boosting, reporting and Slack, but not rules.
Does Madgicx work for Google Ads?
Madgicx is built Meta-first: its AI audiences, creative insights and automation center on Facebook and Instagram. Teams with meaningful Google, Snapchat or TikTok budgets will not get Meta-grade coverage there from Madgicx — that multi-platform case is precisely where Birch has the stronger claim.
Which platforms does Birch automate?
Meta (Facebook and Instagram), Google, Snapchat and TikTok — one rule framework enforced across all of them. That breadth is Birch's main structural advantage over Madgicx, and it matters most for agencies and brands whose spend is genuinely split across platforms rather than concentrated on Meta.
Can I use Madgicx and Birch together?
Technically yes — some Meta-heavy teams run Madgicx for creative and audience insight and Birch for guardrail rules. But you would pay both bills and maintain both systems for one channel. Most teams get further picking the model that matches how they actually operate, then adding the second tool only if a concrete gap appears.
Which has the better free trial?
Birch's is longer: 14 days with full feature access, against Madgicx's 7 days. Both are long enough to connect a live account. On the Madgicx trial, do one thing first: check what your actual spend bracket costs in-app, because the public ~$55 entry figure only applies to the smallest bracket.
Is Madgicx worth it at low ad spend?
At the smallest brackets it is one of the cheapest serious Meta tools — around $55/month for the full platform. The honest caveat is operator time: the insights only pay if someone reviews and acts on them consistently. A founder spending $1,000/month with no time to operate it will not see the value.
Does Madgicx have automation rules like Birch?
Madgicx includes automation in its single plan, but its center of gravity is insight — AI audiences and creative analytics that tell you what to do. Birch is the purpose-built rules engine: deeper trigger logic, more platforms, and a product designed entirely around authoring and enforcing if-then playbooks.
What are the best alternatives to Madgicx and Birch?
Within Meta-first tooling, AdEspresso ($49/month with a $1,000 spend cap, $99 unlimited) suits smaller accounts focused on split-testing. Enterprise social teams look at Smartly (custom, percentage of spend). Our [Madgicx alternatives](/blog/madgicx-alternatives-2026) and [Birch alternatives](/blog/birch-revealbot-alternatives-2026) guides rank the fuller field.
