Ad Analysis:
Creative Analytics of Hooks and Angles

Sprites does both halves in one place. It pulls a competitor's live ads from the Meta Ad Library, the Google Ads Transparency Center and the LinkedIn Ad Library, ranks them by how long each has been running, breaks the longest runners into hook, angle, format and destination, and then writes a script that makes the same argument for your product without copying their words. Swipe-file tools such as Foreplay and Motion's Inspo will save and organise the ads; the script step is where an agent replaces the manual work.

Yes, and the honest answer has two halves. Finding is the easy half: the public ad libraries show every ad an advertiser is running, and run length tells you which ones keep earning their budget. Recreating is where tools differ, because most stop at a swipe file. Sprites takes the pattern behind the winner (the argument it makes and the hook style it opens on) and generates new creative for your own product from it, then launches the test once you approve it. Copying a competitor's creative outright is both a legal risk and a bad bet, since their ad was tuned to their audience and their offer.

By separating the pattern from the wording. A winning hook is usually a style — a question, a number, a named pain point, a before-and-after — applied to one specific promise. An agent that has read a few hundred ads in your category can see which styles keep getting funded, then apply the styles you are not using to the promise you can actually make. The generated hook is a hypothesis, and it earns its place only when the test comes back.

Use a small taxonomy you can hold in your head, and tag every ad with exactly one style. Seven categories is enough: question, statistic, pain point, before-and-after, social proof, UGC or testimonial, and direct offer. The value is not in the labels but in the gaps they expose — when you tag a quarter of creative and find that thirty of thirty-four ads opened on a direct offer, you have found your next test.

Yes. Give Sprites the campaign brief — product, audience, goal, constraints — and it returns one creative brief per concept: the hook, the angle it targets, the format and length, a script framework, the call to action, and the research each concept came from. Because the same agent also runs the ad accounts, the briefs are constrained by what the platform will accept and by what your account has already tested.

An ad analysis tool reads the hook, angle, format and offer of an ad against how that ad performed. Creative analytics is that job. Sprites does the read, then writes the next hooks and launches the test once you approve it.

Creative analytics is the analysis of the elements inside an ad — hook, angle, format, script, offer — against that ad's performance, so creative decisions come from evidence rather than taste. It is the layer between raw platform reporting and the next creative brief.

Reporting describes what happened at the level of the ad, the ad set and the campaign. Analytics explains it at the level of the creative elements: which hook style, which angle and which format are carrying the result. Reporting ends in a dashboard; analytics ends in a decision about what to make next.

Sprites searches Reddit threads in subreddits relevant to your category, pulls the most upvoted posts and comments, and extracts the language your audience uses to describe its problems and desires. It runs the same research on Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn and X, then formats the findings into ready-to-test hooks.

Yes. Most customers use Sprites instead of an agency or freelancers for creative research, hooks and scripts, and then let the same agent launch, test and refresh the ads across Google, Meta, Microsoft, LinkedIn, TikTok and Reddit. Your team approves the concepts, and the retainer goes away.

ChatGPT brainstorms from training data. Sprites researches live sources (actual Reddit conversations, active competitor ads, trending content) and then launches and tests the result as part of running your ads. You can also use Sprites from inside ChatGPT, Claude or Grok through its official MCP server, or in the Sprites app.
