Is Seercraft an ad spy tool like BigSpy?
Not quite. BigSpy is a search engine across many networks. Seercraft tracks the specific brands you compete with on Meta, keeps history and tells you what to test next.
Can I move from BigSpy to Seercraft?
Yes. Add the brands you were watching (it takes a minute each) and Seer starts reading their ads straight away. Save the ads you want to keep into boards. If you're moving a large library, email [email protected] and we'll help.
Does Seercraft show competitor ad spend?
No. Nobody outside Meta can see spend for commercial ads outside the EU. Seercraft uses public signals instead: how long ads run, how many versions of an idea a brand makes and how fast it adds new ones.
