BigSpy product thumbnail

BigSpy is an ad intelligence platform with a library of more than one billion ads across ten major social and search platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Google, X, Pinterest, Yahoo, and Unity. Marketers use it to study competitor creatives, search niches by keyword, and download top performing ads for inspiration. It offers a free tier and a Pro plan at $149 per month.

Why BigSpy works

Running paid social blind is expensive because most ad variants lose money. BigSpy lets marketers see which creatives are already performing for competitors across many platforms, which collapses the trial and error budget needed to find a winning angle and shortens the time to a profitable campaign.

  • Competitor tracking. Watches a chosen competitor's ad rotation over time so marketers can see what stays in market and what gets pulled fast.

  • Page and domain analysis. Analyzes Facebook, Google, and TikTok pages and inspects ad domains, useful for vetting affiliate offers and brand competitors.
