How do founders use AI to research competitor ads and find winning angles?
Every major platform publishes its ads publicly (Meta Ad Library, YouTube and TikTok equivalents), and AI tools now transcribe competitor videos, tag hooks and angles, and flag which ads have run 45-plus days, which usually means they are profitable. That turns competitive research from occasional browsing into a systematic weekly input for your own briefs. Steal the structure and angle, never the copy or footage.
