A WhatsApp ad research tool for performance marketers to see and analyse live competitor ads across Meta, Google, and TikTok. Without endless scrolling or tab switching!
🚀 Hey Hunters & Builders!
We’re Akshat and Abinash, two builders who’ve spent years in performance marketing, growth, and building products for marketers.
If you’ve ever run ads, you know the drill:
scrolling Meta Ads Library, hopping into Google Transparency Center, checking TikTok Creative Center, saving links, forwarding ads on WhatsApp… and still feeling like you’re missing the bigger picture.
That frustration is exactly what led us to build Ads Research.
We wanted ad research to feel less chaotic and more like a natural habit. Something you can do quickly, with context, without opening ten tabs. So we built a WhatsApp-based tool that helps performance marketers discover live competitor ads and understand what’s actually working across platforms.
✨ What makes Ads Research different:
📲 Ad research directly on WhatsApp — no dashboards, no clutter
🔍 Discover live competitor ads across Meta, Google & TikTok
🧠 Spot patterns in hooks, formats, and messaging — not random inspiration
⚡ Built for speed, context, and real-world workflows
This started as an internal tool we genuinely needed ourselves. Over time, it became clear that many marketers were struggling with the same problem — too much noise, too little signal.
This is still an early MVP, and we’re actively shaping it based on real feedback from marketers like you.
We’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts ❤️
Does this make ad research feel simpler and more usable in your day-to-day work?

@techievena congrats on this launch!
Congrats on the launch! Can users configure it by competitor or industry and get daily or weekly digests of top creatives?
@kristina__grits Hey Kristina. Thank you very much for trying this out! Surely adding that feature right away.
Congrats on the launch! Turning ad research into something that lives inside WhatsApp is a really interesting take, it feels much closer to how marketers already share and react to ads in real life, instead of forcing everything into another heavy dashboard. How you surface signal over noise in practice, for example, do you highlight ads that are scaling or recurring patterns over time, or is discovery more exploratory right now?
@vik_sh Thank you for your kind words Viktor! Yes we are adding the tracking feature as we go along! So we can segregate the wining and performant ads. Right now, yes it is more exploratory.

I would also welcome this option to get into my mail :)
@busmark_w_nika Thank you very much for trying it out! We surely will keep on adding regular updates based on our user feedback!

Very cool - what analytics/data do you get about the ads? Or is it mostly just seeing the content?
@daniele_packard Daniele thank you very much for trying this out! Yes it is a research tool specifically for ad creatives. Right now, it gives you a detailed breakdown of all the vantage points for all the competitors recent ads and help you draft your next ad brief based on ideas from competitors' ads. We are adding more features as we go!
Excited for the launch! This would be game changer for agencies and brands
Really Epic!
