How it works
Type a brand or keyword
Use a brand name, a product or a niche, and pick the country where the ads are shown.
Pass the bot check and search
We run our Facebook Ad Library Scraper on Apify for up to 10 active ads. This takes 10 to 40 seconds.
Read the longest runners first
Ads are sorted by days running. Advertisers keep paying for ads that work, so long runners are a good place to start.
What you can use it for
- Check what a competitor runs on Facebook and Instagram right now.
- Find long-running ads in a niche before you write your own.
- Collect hooks, offers and landing pages for a swipe file.
- Qualify an agency prospect: does the brand advertise on Meta at all?

FAQ
- Is this Facebook Ad Library search free?
- Yes. Each visitor gets 5 free lookups a day, with no signup. Each lookup returns up to 10 active ads. A lookup that someone ran in the last 24 hours comes back from our cache and does not use one of your 5.
- Why only 10 ads?
- The cap keeps the tool free for everyone. Meta returns about 10 ads per page. The full Facebook Ad Library Scraper pages through up to 50,000 ads per keyword, advertiser or link.
- Where does the data come from?
- From the public Meta Ad Library, the transparency tool Meta runs for ads on Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Threads and Audience Network. Nothing needs a login.
- What does days running mean?
- The number of days from the ad's start date to today. This tool shows active ads only, so every ad is still running. In the full scraper, stopped ads count up to their end date.
- Do I need a Facebook account?
- No. The search reads the public Ad Library without a login, and you do not need an Apify account for the free lookup.
