Budgets
Read at 10:10 · the period does not apply here
What is planned for today, what has gone, and the hour each budget runs out at. Nothing here can overspend — a platform stops at the number on the slider — so the question is not how much goes out, it is when the ads stop.

21 per cent of a day's delivery has happened
At this rate the budget is gone by 21:43 and the ads stop.
The shape of a day
What an evenly delivered day puts through each hour, and what actually went. The account is measured against this curve rather than against the clock.
Campaign by campaign
The earliest to run out first. The fill is what has gone; the hairline is where the day's own shape would have it by now.

At this rate the budget is gone by 15:58 and the ads stop.
The hours after 15:58 are 47 per cent of a day's delivery — the end of the afternoon and the whole evening.
Gone before the evening on 14 of the last fourteen days, so this is a pattern rather than a morning.

At this rate the budget is gone by 21:45 and the ads stop.
The hours after 21:45 are 10 per cent of a day's delivery, which is the tail of an evening and not much else.
It has not run out on a day the desk has looked at, which makes today the first.

The one with an end date
A daily budget on a campaign that stops is a lifetime budget whether anybody calls it one, and the question moves from the hour to the day.
Day 7 of 23 · ends 30 Sep
₺13K of ₺55K gonehere the hairline is where the flight is, not where the hour is
Underspending against the flight. The budget will not all go.
At the rate of the 7 days so far, something like ₺14K of the flight’s budget is still sitting there on the last day. Underspending a launch is quieter than overspending one and costs the same amount of attention.
All 14 days · ended 7 Sep
₺12K of ₺13K gonehere the hairline is where the flight is, not where the hour is
Finished 7 Sep. 6 per cent of the budget never went.
It ran at ₺845 a day against a plan of ₺900. A finished flight is the only honest thing to set a running one against: it is the same shape of campaign, and what it actually spent is a fact rather than a projection.
What Omni would change
Each one written from the measurement above it rather than by anybody's judgement, and none of it goes to a platform until a person says so in writing.

A daily budget is the most reliable control on an advertising platform and the least informative one: it tells you what you cannot spend and nothing at all about when you stop being seen. The hour is the number worth watching, and it is a division.
