Filter Ad Search Results by Platform

Platform Filters isolate ad search results to a specific advertising network for media buyers and creative strategists, ensuring that creative analysis remains contextually relevant to each platform's unique formats.

See example

What This Feature Does

  • •Limits search results to a single advertising platform, such as Meta, TikTok, or Google.
  • •Separates ad creatives from different networks to prevent comparison between dissimilar formats.
  • •Enables focused research on platform-specific creative best practices and performance signals.
  • •Ensures strategic insights are valid for the intended ad environment.

How It Works

1
Users select a desired platform from a dropdown or checkbox menu within the main search interface.
2
The system queries the ad database and returns only creatives that were detected on the selected platform(s).
3
All subsequent sorting and filtering actions apply only to the results from the chosen platform.

Who This Feature Is For

✓ Best For

  • Analyzing creative trends specific to one platform (e.g., TikTok video hooks).
  • Developing platform-native creative strategies.
  • Ensuring performance benchmarks are compared against similar ad formats.
  • Media buyers focusing campaign launches on a single network.

✕ Not Ideal For

  • Broad, cross-platform trend analysis in a single view.
  • Simultaneously understanding how a single brand adapts its creative across multiple networks.

Practical Use Cases

A creative strategist filters for TikTok to study top-performing video hooks for a new campaign.
A media buyer filters for Meta to research competitor ad formats in the Facebook news feed.
An analyst filters for the Google Display Network to find examples of successful banner ad designs.

Limits & Boundaries

  • !Platform availability in the filter depends on the user's subscription plan and current data coverage.
  • !This filter does not subdivide results by placement within a platform (e.g., Instagram Reels vs. Stories).
