📢 Ad Library

Discover real ads that are already working

The Ad Library lets you see real, active ads from platforms like Meta (Facebook & Instagram), TikTok, and Pinterest — all in one place.

Instead of guessing what kind of ads might work, you can analyze ads that are already running and use them as inspiration for your own campaigns.

This feature saves you time, money, and a lot of trial and error.


🧭 What the Ad Library is used for

Use the Ad Library to:

  • Find ads that are currently being run by real brands

  • Discover which products are being advertised

  • Analyze ad creatives, hooks, and angles

  • Understand what’s working in different markets

  • Get inspiration for your own ad campaigns

You’re not copying blindly — you’re learning from what already performs.


🔎 Searching & filtering ads

You can search ads by:

  • Keywords

  • Platform (Meta, TikTok, Pinterest)

  • Product category

  • Ad status and recency

Each search or filter action uses credits.
Credits are simply your monthly data allowance — not money.

Tip:
Start with broad searches, then narrow down once you see patterns.


📊 What data you can see per ad

For each ad, Droplink shows you:

  • The ad creative (image or video)

  • The platform it’s running on

  • The advertiser or brand

  • The landing page or store link

  • How long the ad has been running

Ads that run for a longer time are often a strong signal that they’re profitable.


💡 How to use the Ad Library effectively

  • Look for ads that have been running consistently

  • Analyze the first 3 seconds of the creative (the hook)

  • Pay attention to messaging, not just visuals

  • Combine Ad Library insights with Discover Products for validation

The goal isn’t to copy — it’s to understand patterns.


➕ From ad idea to product

If you find a product through an ad:

  • Search for it in Discover Products

  • Check costs, shipping, and profit

  • Add it to your store once it makes sense

This creates a clean workflow from ad → product → store.


❓ Common questions

Can I download or reuse ads?
Ads are shown for analysis and inspiration. Always follow platform rules and copyright guidelines.

Does the Ad Library show only active ads?
You’ll mainly see active and recently running ads, depending on the platform.

Is this available on all plans?
Access depends on your plan and available credits.


✅ Summary

The Ad Library helps you:

  • 📢 Discover real ads in real markets

  • 📊 Understand what products are being pushed

  • 🔥 Spot trends early

  • 💡 Improve your own ad ideas

If Discover Products shows you what to sell,
the Ad Library shows you how it’s being sold.
