detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow automates the process of scraping image ads from the Meta Ad Library, leveraging OpenAI for advanced image content analysis, and storing all findings in Google Sheets and Google Drive. It provides marketers with a powerful tool for competitor analysis and ad creative insights, streamlining research and data organization.
About This Workflow
This robust n8n workflow empowers marketers and analysts to gain deep insights into competitor ad strategies. It begins by efficiently scraping image advertisements from the Meta Ad Library using Apify. The workflow then intelligently filters and sorts these ads, focusing on key metrics like reach or days running. Crucially, it employs OpenAI's advanced AI capabilities (via Langchain nodes) to analyze the visual content of each ad, extracting structured data and insights. Finally, the original images are saved to Google Drive, and all collected data, along with the AI analysis, is systematically stored in Google Sheets, creating a comprehensive database for strategic decision-making.
