Adshelf

Adshelf analyzes Facebook and Instagram ads to show you what actually works: the angles a brand is funding, the hooks that hold attention, and the creatives that run long enough to prove they convert. It tracks every ad your competitors run in Meta's public Ad Library and keeps them forever — including the ads Meta deletes the day an advertiser stops running them.

Ask Claude to break down a brand's creative strategy, surface its longest-running winners, extract the angles and ad copy behind them, and compare a category's ad longevity to the shelf-wide benchmark. Because ad run duration is the closest public proxy for performance — nobody keeps paying to serve a losing ad — the analysis is grounded in what brands actually keep spending on, not opinions.

Built for competitor ad analysis, Facebook Ad Library search, ad intelligence, creative analytics, ad copy and hook research, angle discovery, ad inspiration and swipe files, and creative benchmarking across Meta ads: Facebook ads, Instagram ads, Reels and Stories placements, video, static, carousel and UGC formats. Made for DTC and e-commerce brands, media buyers, growth marketers, and creative strategists. Google Ads support is coming soon — the same analysis extended to Google search and shopping ads.

Tools: list tracked brands, pull any brand's stored creatives with run durations, read a brand's strategy summarized from its live library, compare cross-brand ad longevity benchmarks, keyword-search the whole library, fetch a full brand dossier or single ad, and add new brands to track. Accounts that connect a Meta ad account through Business Manager can also analyze their own campaign performance — spend, ROAS, CPA, CTR, hook rate and hold rate — side by side with the competitor shelf.

Read-only by default. The only writes are additive — adding a brand to track. Adshelf never modifies or deletes anything in your ad account, and never exposes credentials.
