Spytrend

Spytrend logo on the cover of the review

Spytrend’s ad database lets buyers search public advertisements by vertical, ad network, geography and time period, then group ads into webmaster profiles. Its main ad-spy coverage is Facebook/Meta and TikTok, not Google or native networks, while separate company and store pages describe Google ad data. The distinction matters if a research brief requires Google ads from the main library.

This is most relevant to media buyers and affiliates comparing public ads, or to researchers whose work also calls for company or store records.

Public Ad Searches Meet a Network Boundary

Spytrend’s pricing page and legal pages describe the subscription and public-ad database, according to sources checked on 2026-10-31.

  • Subscription model: subscription-based SaaS platform (pricing page, checked 2026-10-31).
  • Main ad-spy sources: Facebook/Meta and TikTok; not Google or native networks (homepage, checked 2026-10-31).
  • Database basis: advertisements collected from publicly available ad transparency tools (legal About page, checked 2026-10-31).
  • Search filters: 33 verticals, ad networks, geographies, time periods and other parameters (legal About page, checked 2026-10-31).
  • Separate research pages: company records include Meta, Google and TikTok ads; store records describe live Meta, TikTok and Google ads (Startups and Shops pages, checked 2026-10-31).

Filters Lead Into Ads and Profiles

Searches can be narrowed by vertical, network, geography and time period, with other parameters also available. The database supports filtering across 33 verticals, according to Spytrend’s legal About page, checked 2026-10-31.

Ads are grouped into webmaster profiles that connect pages, domains, pixels and IP addresses. This structure links related advertising records through the identifiers Spytrend lists, rather than treating each ad as an isolated search result.

Spytrend states that new ads reach its service within minutes. That is the provider’s stated arrival time, not a broader guarantee about the age or completeness of every record.

Confirm Coverage and Data Before Paying

Before choosing access, ask which products, datasets and sources the intended plan includes. In general, research tools can separate their libraries and databases, so clarify which one supports the specific task.

Ask how the provider defines coverage across networks and geographies, and what records its searches represent. In general, coverage descriptions are more useful when they specify the source and scope rather than relying on a broad product label.

For time-sensitive research, ask how recent records are for the target market and how the provider describes updates. In general, an update statement does not by itself establish the age of every record.

Also ask how the service handles estimates, lower bounds and missing records. In general, those labels affect how confidently a buyer can compare entries, so request definitions before treating figures as directly comparable.

Company and Store Records Add Separate Paths

Startups provides company records that can include funding, financial figures, people, contacts, estimated traffic and advertising information. The provider describes its company advertising coverage as Meta, Google and TikTok. Company lists can be exported as CSV or XLSX.

Those records have limits: Spytrend says valuation, ARR and revenue figures are not available for every company, and some funding-round amounts are undisclosed. Its site traffic figures are estimates. The provider also characterizes Google ad counts as lower bounds.

Shops is a separate database for researching online stores and products. Store searches can use niche, country, platform, traffic and growth filters, while analytics include estimated visits, visitor countries, traffic sources and similar stores. Spytrend says store traffic estimates are for comparison and spotting growth, not exact store figures.

The provider says product research includes store products currently promoted in ads; image matching can show price ranges and advertising prevalence. The provider also describes live store ads across Meta, TikTok and Google. Product cards can show the product name, store, picture, price when available, and a product-page link, according to the provider.

Base Separates Categories From Tokens

The main ad-research pricing page lists Base at $79 per month with one AI category; each additional category costs $50 per month, according to the homepage checked 2026-10-31. The homepage says plans include one user, with team seats available for up to 20 users.

The same pricing page describes a free Starter plan for ads older than 90 days and Pro access to fresh ads. It lists card payment through Stripe. Paid-plan customers can buy 40,000 extra tokens for $50, and the pricing page says purchased tokens do not expire.

Startups pricing is separate from the main ad-research plan: the provider lists Startups PRO at $1 for the first 7 days, then $199 per month for one user. Startups Business is listed at $5,000 per year, billed annually, with three team seats; each additional seat costs $199 per month. These prices are from the Startups page, checked 2026-10-31.

Shops has its own annual plans: Base is $34 per month, billed at $408 yearly; Pro is $59 per month, billed at $708 yearly; and Business is $109 per month, billed at $1308 yearly, according to the Shops page checked 2026-10-31. Extra team seats on those plans are priced at $34, $59 or $109 per seat per month, depending on plan.

The Terms say payment is due in advance for the selected access period, and one-time access purchases do not renew automatically; access ends with the paid period. The Terms describe paid actions as using Tokens, internal accounting units that generally cannot be exchanged for money. The pricing page’s statement that purchased tokens do not expire concerns purchased tokens; it should not be conflated with every token term. The winning-products page says the first lookup is free without sign-up, while the Terms require an account to access service features.

Filters, Profiles, and Exports Support Research

The ad database combines vertical, network, geography and time-period filters, and links ads through webmaster profiles containing pages, domains, pixels and IPs. That gives buyers a way to move from a filtered search to related records without treating each creative as a separate research path.

For company research, Startups can export company lists as CSV or XLSX. Shops adds filters for niche, country, platform, traffic and growth, plus estimated visits, visitor-country data, traffic sources and similar-store information. These are distinct research paths, so the relevant export or store field should be checked against the intended dataset.

Product matching compares items across stores by image and can show a price range and advertising prevalence. The winning-products page ranks one country or category per lookup and displays its top ten products, with the full list available in Spytrend. Product cards can include a name, store, picture, price when available and product-page link.

Coverage and Access Narrow the Workflow

The provider’s terms and product pages describe limits on coverage, data quality and access.

  • The main ad-spy service covers Facebook/Meta and TikTok, not Google or native networks.
  • Company valuation, ARR and revenue figures are not present for every company; some funding-round amounts are undisclosed.
  • Company site traffic and store traffic are estimates, while Google ad counts are lower bounds.
  • Ad counts may miss launches from the most recent few days, according to the winning-products page.
  • The homepage limits free Starter access to ads older than 90 days; unused Pro Exclusive category slots are not refundable.
  • Plan Tokens expire at the end of their billing period without carrying over, and automated access requires written permission.

Research Teams Need the Right Dataset

Spytrend fits buyers whose research calls for the main library’s stated Facebook/Meta and TikTok coverage, with filters for verticals, networks, geography and time. The provider describes media buyers and affiliate marketers among its intended users.

Company and store research may suit work that specifically needs company profiles or store records, including their separately described advertising data. The distinction matters: those pages describe Google ads, but the main ad-spy service excludes Google.

Before choosing access, match the research brief to the specific database and verify that its stated sources and fields cover the task.

Compare Libraries by Their Coverage

Compare research tools by the ad sources they cover, the available geography and vertical filters, and how each describes its archive and update timing. Also check whether exports match the intended workflow and whether estimates or lower bounds are clearly labeled.

  • Company location: address
  • Company background: history
  • Independent verification: vendor claims
  • Ad-library coverage: methodology and record completeness

  • Support: response times and service-level commitments

Questions About Spytrend’s Research Scope

What networks does the main ad library cover?

The main ad library covers Facebook/Meta and TikTok, according to the homepage; the provider says it does not cover Google or native networks. This scope applies to the ad-spy service, so buyers needing Google or native-network ads should distinguish that library from the separate company and store pages.

Why do some Spytrend pages mention Google?

The Startups page describes company ads on Meta, Google and TikTok, while the Shops page describes live store ads on Meta, TikTok and Google. Those are separate research paths; their Google references do not change the homepage’s stated coverage for the main ad-spy service.

What changes between Starter and Pro ad access?

The homepage says free Starter access covers ads older than 90 days, while Pro provides access to fresh ads. The winning-products page separately says paid plans add fresh ads and every filter, while a free account opens the full ad library. Buyers should distinguish access to the library from access to fresh ads and filters.

What does the winning-products ranking represent?

The winning-products ranking reflects advertising effort, not sales, according to the provider. Each lookup ranks one country or category and displays its top ten products, with the full list available in Spytrend. The ranking describes advertising activity; it is not a sales figure.

Can its ranking establish sales?

No: the provider says the ranking reflects advertising effort, not sales. Its ad counts may also omit launches from the most recent few days. Treat the ranking as an advertising-effort view, not as proof of sales or a complete record of recent launches.

Which access and cancellation terms should a buyer distinguish?

The Terms say payment is due in advance for the selected access period, and one-time access ends with that period without automatically renewing. They also say plan Tokens are limited to Content AI and expire at the end of their billing period without carrying over. The homepage’s no-expiry statement concerns purchased tokens.

Choose by Coverage, Not the Category Label

Fits if the intended research matches the main library’s stated Facebook/Meta and TikTok coverage, or specifically calls for the separate company and store datasets.

Probably not if Google or native-network ads are required from the main ad-spy library.

Main risk… is treating separate company or store coverage, or an advertising-effort ranking, as a broader ad-library view or evidence of sales.
