Google Ads Transparency Scraper

Get any advertiser's Google ads from the Ads Transparency Center: Search, YouTube, Shopping, Maps and Play. Unlike scrapers that hand you a preview link, this one decodes the actual ad: headlines, descriptions, call to action, display URL, landing page, images, Shopping product titles and the YouTube link of video ads.

No login, no cookies, no browser. Type a brand name, a domain, an advertiser ID or paste any Transparency Center URL.

Full ad details (optional)

Turn on Full ad details to add, per ad:

• variations: every A/B version of the ad,
• regionStats: every country where the ad ran, with first and last shown dates,
• EU reach: impressions ranges per country and per platform (Search, YouTube, Maps…), plus totals,
• audienceSelection: whether the advertiser targeted by demographics, locations and contextual signals (included, excluded or both),
• more decoded copy: many text ads are archived as a screenshot, but one of their variations still carries the text, so details mode finds copy for more text ads.

Monitor competitors

Turn on Only new ads and schedule the run daily or weekly. Each run returns only ads it has not returned before for the same brand and filters, so you get a feed of a competitor's new creatives and pay only for new ads. Use Monitor name to keep separate monitors.

Good to know

• Google archives many Search text ads only as a screenshot. Those rows have imageUrl; copy is decoded when Google keeps the text (always for responsive display, Shopping and most video ads; for text ads more often with Full ad details).
• Impressions and audience selection exist only where Google publishes them (EU countries).
• Platform filters apply only to ads shown since September 2023, and ad counts are Google's approximate ranges.
• Data is what Google publishes in the Transparency Center at run time. This Actor is not affiliated with Google.
