Research examples

  • Compare active ads from two advertisers by publication date.
  • Find long-running ads for a product and export their creative links.
  • Review disclosed political-ad spending and audience data.

Spend and audience figures can be absent for ordinary commercial ads. The skill explains which fields to expect; it does not estimate undisclosed spending.
