# Performance

> See how a campaign is tracking against its monthly target.

> **Performance** answers two questions: is this campaign on track, and does anything need your attention?

## Choose what you're looking at

The page shows one campaign at a time, either for all time or for one billing cycle. A billing cycle is a calendar month.

* **Campaign picker**: appears when you have more than one campaign. It starts on the campaign with the most views. Paused or ended campaigns are labeled with their status.
* **Cycle picker**: starts on **All time**. Pick a month to see just that billing cycle. Months when the campaign didn't post are grayed out.

For a month, the header shows how far through the cycle you are, for example *Day 12 of 30*. For all time, it shows when the campaign's activity began.

### All time

All time covers everything from the campaign's first activity through today:

* **Spent to date** is the campaign's lifetime spend, the same figure your invoices add up to. It's compared with a cap only when the campaign has a lifetime cap. A monthly cap applies one month at a time.
* **Views delivered** counts every view the campaign has earned since billing began, including views delivered free after a monthly cap was reached. Those free views never appear on an invoice, so this total is higher than the views your invoices add up to.
* **Effective CPM** is your lifetime spend divided by every view delivered. Once a month has run past its cap, it sits below your agreed rate for good.
* **Clips posted** counts every clip the campaign has posted.
* The chart shows each post's views on the day it was published rather than the day the views arrived. It has no **Target / day** line, since a monthly target doesn't apply across months.
* To see the day-by-day delivery and pace against target, pick a month.

To open this page for a specific campaign, click **View full performance** in that campaign's [updates](/managed/campaigns#campaign-updates).

## Summary tiles

| Tile | What it shows |
| - | - |
| **Spent this month** | Spend so far this cycle compared with your monthly cap, and how much is left. It turns red when the cap is reached. |
| **Effective CPM** | What you're effectively paying per 1,000 views, counting every view delivered in the cycle, including the free ones after the cap. It matches your agreed rate until the campaign reaches its cap, then drops below it. |
| **Clips posted** | Clips posted this cycle and the average per day across your accounts. |
| **Trending posts** | Appears only when one of your posts is trending. Click it to see which posts. |

## Views delivered

The main chart shows daily views for the cycle.

* The heading shows the total views delivered and whether you're ahead of or behind plan. During the first two weeks, a **Warming up** label reminds you that volume is intentionally low. See [Campaign status](/managed/campaigns#campaign-status).
* **Target / day** is the daily pace that would use your full monthly cap by the end of the month.
* **Avg / day** is your actual daily average so far.
* Today's dotted point shows views recorded so far and updates as new readings arrive.

Each day's views are the views your posts earned *on that day*, whenever they were published. A clip posted last week that picks up views today counts toward today, so the line keeps moving on days with no new posts (for example, after your monthly cap is reached and new posts wait for next month). Views past a reached cap still count as delivered; you aren't charged for them.

Spend is assigned to the month its views were recorded. A monthly settlement
processed after midnight still belongs to the month it settles. Effective CPM
divides that month's spend by all its recorded views, including free over-cap
delivery. If some reading history is unavailable, the chart identifies the
coverage as partial.

## Views by platform

This panel shows how the cycle's views break down across Reels, Shorts, TikTok, X, and other platforms, with the effective CPM for each.

## Clips per day

A bar for each recent day shows how many clips were posted. Today's bar is faded because the day isn't over. Hover over a bar to see the exact count.
