Ads Intelligence Cluster

Answer natural language questions about ads, ad libraries, and competitor advertising activity by routing to the right Apify Actor and delivering a synthesized answer.

CLI rules: Always pass --user-agent apify-awesome-skills/apify-ads-intelligence, --json (or the relevant --format flag on datasets get-items), and 2>/dev/null. The --user-agent flag is critical for telemetry — never omit it.

Note on platform coverage

• Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn: real public ad libraries with rich data (creatives, targeting, dates, reach where disclosed).
• X (Twitter): no public ad library exists. Coverage is a best-effort workaround that scrapes a brand's tweets and flags items with non-empty card field or source containing "Ads" as likely promoted. Always include the caveat in synthesis output.

Note on overlap with apify-ecommerce

That skill has an ads-intelligence intent that routes to apify/facebook-ads-scraper for shallow Meta-ad lookups. This skill is the deep dive across all five platforms. If you only need Meta ads as a side detail of an ecommerce question, stay in apify-ecommerce. If ads are the main task, use this skill.
