Find proven winners, not guesses.
Long-running Instagram ads tell you what a competitor has tested and kept, the highest-confidence creative signal there is.
Instagram ads
Syntheo pulls your competitors' active Instagram ads (Reels, Stories, single-image, and carousel creatives) from the Meta Ad Library into one view. See what they're running, how long each ad has been live, and the moment an offer changes.

The problem
Instagram is where your competitors run their best creative: Reels, Stories, and carousels tuned to convert. The ads are public in the Meta Ad Library, but checking them means searching brand by brand, scrolling endless placements, and squinting to guess what's actually spending. A single snapshot tells you nothing about what's performing.
Why it costs you
The ad you can't see is the budget you're guessing at. While you piece together fragments by hand, a competitor scales a winning Reel, tests a new hook, or quietly swaps in a better offer, and you find out weeks later, after you've already spent on a worse idea. The single most valuable signal in the ad library, how long a creative has been running, is the one that's hardest to track by hand. Long-running Instagram ads are paid-for proof of what works. Miss them and you're testing from scratch what a competitor already validated.
What Syntheo does
Syntheo tracks your competitors' Instagram ads in the Meta Ad Library continuously. You see every active Reel, Story, single-image, and carousel ad for each competitor you follow (with the filters that actually matter), and Syntheo surfaces long-running ads so you can tell durable winners from one-week tests at a glance. Instead of searching the ad library brand by brand, you get one Instagram ad view that's always current.
How it works
1
Name the brands you want to watch. Syntheo starts with recent Instagram ad history on signup. Full history unlocks on paid plans.
2
New ads, paused ads, and long-runners stay current in the Meta Ad Library automatically, with no manual checking.
3
Filter by brand, location, asset type, and activity, and isolate long-running ads to find the creatives a competitor keeps paying to run.
What you can do with it
Long-running Instagram ads tell you what a competitor has tested and kept, the highest-confidence creative signal there is.
Continuous tracking means a competitor's new Reel campaign or fresh discount shows up while it's still news, not after the quarter ends.
See whether a competitor is leaning on Reels, Stories, or carousels, and which format is earning a sustained budget.
