Search competitor ads,
skip the guesswork

Proxy is a free tool that gives your AI assistant, like Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, real-time access to competitor ads across Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and TikTok. 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, LinkedIn Ad Library, and TikTok. 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, LinkedIn, and TikTok (ads shown in the EU, searched by exact advertiser name): all four major ad libraries in one tool. Most competitor ad tools are single-platform. Proxy lets you research a competitor across all four in a single session.

Proxy is free to start, with no credit card required. You get 20 credits a day to research competitor ads right away, and can upgrade to a paid plan any time you need more capacity.

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, LinkedIn, or TikTok 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.

Agencies run a competitor radar for each client: pull the five or ten brands that matter in that market, compare their live ads across Meta and Google, and refresh the same list every week to see what changed. Ask your AI to repeat the pull and diff it against last week, and it will.

Yes. Pull the prospect's live ads and those of two or three rivals, then compare platforms, formats, offers and how long each ad has been running. Agencies use it before pitches and sales meetings to find gaps worth raising. Ad libraries show what is live, not spend or results, so treat what you find as a conversation opener, not a diagnosis.

Proxy reads the public ad libraries, so it shows the ads and when they started, but not spend, impressions or results for ordinary commercial ads, because the libraries do not publish them. TikTok covers ads shown in the EU, searched by exact advertiser name. Proxy reads the libraries live and has no saved boards or historical archive.

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, LinkedIn, and TikTok together, includes video analysis, and is free to start, with no credit card required.
