Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about researching competitor ads with Proxy
Proxy is a free tool that gives your AI assistant, like Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, real-time access to competitor ads across Meta, Google, and LinkedIn. Instead of switching to a separate dashboard, you ask your AI to pull competitor ads and it does it directly in conversation.
Proxy is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Once installed, it connects your AI assistant to the Meta Ad Library, Google Ads Transparency Center, and LinkedIn Ad Library. You type a request like "show me what ads Notion is running on Google", and Proxy fetches the live data and returns it inside your chat.
Proxy covers Meta (Facebook and Instagram), Google Ads, and LinkedIn: all three major ad libraries in one tool. Most competitor ad tools are single-platform. Proxy lets you research a competitor across all three in a single session.
Yes. Proxy is free to start while it’s in beta, with no credit card required. You can connect it to your AI assistant and start researching competitor ads right away.
No. There are no API keys, no code, and no dashboards to configure. If you use ChatGPT, find Proxy in the ChatGPT App Store. If you use Claude or Cursor, a single guided install gets you connected in minutes.
Proxy works with ChatGPT (via the ChatGPT App Store), Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any other MCP-compatible client. Claude is the most popular client among Proxy users.
You can pull any brand’s current ads from Meta, Google, or LinkedIn and ask your AI to analyse them. Summarise the messaging, spot patterns, compare creatives across competitors, or identify which ads have been running longest. You can also transcribe competitor video ads to extract scripts and hooks, and discover competitors you didn’t know existed by describing your market.
Yes. Proxy transcribes and analyses competitor video ad content using AI. You can get a full transcript, hook breakdown, and creative summary for any video ad, without downloading the file or switching tools.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources. An MCP server is a connector that gives your AI the ability to do things beyond its training data, like fetching live ad library results. Proxy is an MCP server purpose-built for competitive ad research.
Those tools are standalone dashboards that require a separate subscription ($50 to $150+/mo) and context-switching out of your workflow. Proxy lives inside the AI tools you’re already using, covers Meta, Google, and LinkedIn together, includes video analysis, and is free to start, with no credit card required.
