to generate a complete Meta ad creative brief

Brief
The Better Menopause needed a faster, smarter way to generate creative inspiration for Meta static ads. With brands now testing over 1,000 ad concepts per month, the pressure to research, ideate, and brief at scale had outgrown what a creative team could do manually.
The goal was to build an agent that could continuously monitor competitor brands, identify their strongest-performing creatives, and generate ready-to-use briefs.
AI Implementation
Competitor ad pulling
The agent uses Foreplay to pull the longest-running ads from specified competitor and inspiration brands.Image analysis
Each pulled creative is analysed using Gemini Pro, which generates a structured breakdown of the concept, hook, visual direction, and messaging angle.Brief generation
Using the analysis alongside The Better Menopause's brand voice and product range, the agent selects the most relevant product and produces a complete Meta ad brief as a Google Doc.Interface
All ad requests, competitor inputs, and generated briefs are managed in Airtable. Built in n8n with multiple sub-agents handling each stage of the flow.
