Search-Term Cleaner

Stop paying for the wrong searches

Paste your Google Ads search-terms report and it groups the terms into themes and flags likely negative keywords. Instant and rule-based — review the suggestions before adding, since relevance depends on your goal.

Which campaign type is this?

Standard keyword campaigns. You control match types and can negate at ad-group level.

How it works

  1. 1Paste your Google Ads search-terms report — one term per line, or the raw CSV from Ads Manager.
  2. 2It groups the terms into themes and flags the ones that look like waste — irrelevant, off-intent or 'free/jobs/DIY' style queries.
  3. 3Review the flagged terms, then add the ones you agree with as negative keywords to stop paying for them.

When to use it

  • Your search-terms report is hundreds of rows and you need the wasted spend surfaced fast.
  • You want a starting negative-keyword list grouped by theme, not one term at a time.
  • You're doing a monthly cleanup and want a repeatable, quick pass.

Frequently asked questions

Is the search-term cleaner free?

Yes — free, no sign-up. Paste your report and get grouped themes and suggested negatives immediately.

What are negative keywords?

Negative keywords tell Google Ads not to show your ads for searches containing those words — so you stop paying for clicks that will never convert (like 'free', 'jobs' or unrelated products). Adding good negatives is one of the fastest ways to cut wasted spend.

Will it add the negatives to my account automatically?

No. It suggests likely negatives and groups them for you to review — you stay in control and add the ones you agree with in Google Ads. Relevance depends on your goal, so always review before adding.

Do I need to connect my Google Ads account?

No. You paste the search-terms report yourself, so there's no login or account access, and your data isn't stored.
