“80% of the time I used to spend on media buying is now spent on larger growth initiatives, allowing us to move much faster.”
Felix Lacroix · Head of Growth, Hims & Hers Canada
Hims & Hers (NYSE: HIMS) is one of the largest telehealth brands in the world, generating $1.5B+ in revenue annually. As a telehealth brand they provide prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, and personal care products.
Felix Lacroix is Head of Growth at Hims & Hers Canada and runs the company’s entire paid acquisition as a solo media buyer. Felix had been building his own integrations with ad platforms inside a Cursor-based agent to automate his analysis and media buying workflows. With the launch of Converge’s MCP and Agentic Media Buying product, that fragmented stack setup was replaced by a purpose-built agent with the guardrails, security, and learning loop needed to automate performance analysis and move budget autonomously.
Felix built earlier AI and automation tools but ran into two walls: AI outputs he could not trust, and off-the-shelf platforms with black-box reasoning he could not audit. Felix wanted to leverage AI to automate his analysis and ultimately media buying in general. The next layer of leverage, agentic media buying, was only going to work if it sat on top of data Felix already trusted.
Result: Without a granular, trustworthy data layer underneath, agentic media buying was a non-starter. The AI was only ever going to be as good as the data it pulled from.
With Converge already capturing clean and granular data across all channels, Felix plugged the Converge MCP into a Cursor-based agent. The agent pulls First Touch and Last Touch CPA from Converge, runs a self-calibrated Meta creative-testing framework that decides which creatives to pause or scale. Every recommendation comes back with reasoning and data sources Felix can audit.
Impact:
Even with the Converge MCP plugged into Cursor in combination with the Meta CLI, the agent setup had real limits. It misinterpreted data and hallucinated periodically, forgot instructions it had been given less recently, and was coded without guardrails or security. Felix could not trust it with the ability to actually move budget, so he was still manually verifying and implementing every recommendation.
The agent could also not learn on its own. Every time Felix wanted to change its behavior or teach it a new pattern, he had to write or tweak skill files by hand. A single workflow like Kill Creative Losers took many iterations to get right.
Result: Media buying remained manual, and the tool that was supposed to automate it became another thing Felix had to maintain.
Converge’s Agentic Media Buying product replaced Felix’s Cursor setup with an agent that makes the same media buying decisions Felix would. Four things made the difference in practice.
“I had been writing skills in Cursor for hours trying to get a Kill Creative Losers workflow working and it kept making mistakes,” Felix says. “After my very first interactions, I had already become more confident in the Converge agent than what I had built myself because I noticed my logic was being written to memory so it ran correctly on every subsequent run. 80% of the time I used to spend on media buying is now spent on larger growth initiatives, allowing us to move much faster.”
