Free Meta Ads Tools
For Facebook And Instagram Ads
See Which Ads To Replace, And What To Make Next.
These tools are for anyone who runs Facebook and Instagram ads, in-house or for clients, and has to decide which ads to replace and what to make next.
That work is a loop: spot the ads that are worn out, see what competitors are running, find a new angle in what buyers say, and check that the numbers still pay. There is one tool here for each step, and none of them connects to your Meta account.
The Meta Ads Tools
Upload your Meta Ads Manager report and see which Facebook and Instagram ads are worn out, which to watch and what to do about each.
Needs an ad-level report exported from Ads Manager as a .csv, broken down by day. Free with a work email; the report is read in your browser.
- Also In Research Tools
Describe what you sell and see the problems, objections and exact phrases real customers post on Reddit, each linked to its thread, with ad angles built from them.
Needs a work email and your own OpenRouter account. A search usually costs 5 to 20 cents.
- Also In Research Tools
Enter a competitor and open their live ads on Google, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and Microsoft, with a worksheet for what to note in each.
Needs the competitor’s name; their website helps. Free with a work email.
- Also In Ad Calculators
Work out your return on ad spend, the ROAS you need to break even at your margin, and the ad budget your revenue goal takes.
Type your numbers and read the answer. Free with a work email.

FAQ
What people ask about the Meta ads tools.
Do I have to connect my Meta account?
No. The Meta Ads Fatigue Checker reads a report you export from Ads Manager, and it is read in your browser. The Competitor Ad Finder opens the platforms’ public ad libraries, the ROAS Calculator needs only your numbers, and the Reddit Customer Voice Finder runs on your own OpenRouter account.
Do the tools cover Instagram as well as Facebook?
Yes. Facebook and Instagram ads are run from the same place, Meta Ads Manager, and one report covers both, so the Fatigue Checker judges each ad on its totals across every placement it ran in. The Meta Ad Library, which the Competitor Ad Finder opens, is the library for Facebook and Instagram ads.
Are all of these tools built only for Meta ads?
Only the Fatigue Checker is. The Competitor Ad Finder also opens the ad libraries of Google, LinkedIn, TikTok and Microsoft, and the Reddit Customer Voice Finder and the ROAS Calculator work for any ad platform. They are listed here because they answer the questions a Meta advertiser asks next: what are competitors running, what should the next ad say, and does it pay.
Are the Meta ads tools free?
Yes. A work email opens every free tool on the site, and you give it once. Personal mailboxes are not accepted. The Reddit Customer Voice Finder uses AI models on your own OpenRouter account, and a search usually costs 5 to 20 cents, paid to OpenRouter; groas adds nothing on top.
