Before you start

Meta Ad Library monitoring,
answered.

Can I get alerts when something changes on Meta Ad Library?

Yes. A Monocrawl monitor checks Meta Ad Library on your schedule and compares each check with the last, so you hear about new ads from advertisers you watch, new creatives and ads for your keywords rather than the same results again.

Do I need a Meta Ad Library account?

No. You do not need a Meta Business account or Ad Library API access. Monitors read the public Ad Library through your Monocrawl key.

How far back does a Meta Ad Library monitor go?

The Ad Library keeps an advertiser’s past ads, so the first check shows what they have been running. After that, a monitor reports new and stopped ads.

How often can a Meta Ad Library monitor run, and what does it cost?

Every 15 minutes, hourly, every 6 or 12 hours, daily or weekly. Watching an advertiser’s ads costs 4 credits a check: about 120 credits a month daily, 2,880 credits hourly. Every account gets 1,000 free credits a month, and a cap on each monitor keeps spending predictable.

Do I need to write code?

No. Build a monitor in the dashboard and send alerts to Slack, Discord or a webhook. If you prefer code, monitors are also available through the API and MCP.
