Didn't work as expected.
The video showcasing the product made it look like it could do things that it simply cannot do. I've had better experience with Meta's Ad Library. I'm an author, so I wanted to look at ads for books. I only found a few and only when searching for things like "USA Today" rather than the expected "ebook" or "paperback," so it's not ready for primetime yet. I would expect that even a beta product would perform as shown on the video showcasing it. Maybe it works better for other industries, but it wasn't for me.
I got a refund from AppSumo.
**Update: I did find YouTube video ads, but that wasn't what I was looking for. I was looking for US based static ads (i.e. Facebook/Instagram). There were very few and they were non-fiction. It simply wasn't a helpful tool yet. Maybe at some point it will be, but it's not there yet for fiction authors looking for static ads.
***Changing my rating from 2 tacos to 1 taco due to the rude and overly sensitive replies to my review. I would never work with this company because they take everything too personally. The fact is the tool wasn't in the slightest bit helpful for me. I was trying to be polite about it in my initial review.

Edited Oct 7, 2024Hello Elle,
Thanks for your review and more importantly giving specifics of where you think the issue is.
There is some disconnect here. Here is a live recording searching for ebooks, paperbacks, etc. As you can see for both English and non English there are lots of ads. And, contrary to your latest assertion / misunderstanding that ok image ads for books in english aren't there then I have added to the proof of video both of those (please check last 30 seconds)

You tried with paperback or ebooks for example, which you know is a small niche and even for that we have enough ads. As we have mentioned, we cannot have a full universe of ads and so we keep updating every week. Maybe when you checked they were not there or something but they are definitely there. We are also prioritizing keywords our customers want. So, you will be always welcome to come back try again!
PS: My father was also an author (in Anthropology). So, books will always be close to us in our ad 'library'. Again, feel free to try again and understand what we are always adding more every week. But, for now not sure why you said this but there is enough book ads in the library - both image, video and everything in between those :)
For now, I will request you to try again as I do see enough book ads for the keywords you have mentioned and for the format you have mentioned. Peace!
