ChatGPT writes an ad from nothing in particular. Forge writes from an ad you saved — its hook, objective, awareness stage, audience and levers — and keeps that specific creative attached to every draft it makes.

Yes. Forge works on a board rather than in a black box: each draft, variation, image and video clip is a node you can open, with the prompt, the model and the reference ads it was generated from recorded on it.

Import a brand from its URL once. Its product, custom angles and voice become a brand profile every generation inherits — and you can keep one per client rather than re-explaining the brand each session.

No. The extension is a one-click install and the rest is a search box and a chat box. Model, aspect ratio, duration and voice are pickers with sensible defaults, not settings you have to understand.

From the platforms themselves. The Chrome extension captures ads as they are browsed — Facebook Ad Library, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn — and the backend transcribes, tags and scores each one before it reaches the feed.

No — and be wary of anyone who says they do. There is no spend estimate, no impression count and no hook-rate figure in Flashfeed, because nobody outside the ad account has them. What you get is the creative, the copy, the public engagement counts on organic posts, the landing page on paid ads, and a rating out of five.

Daily. New ads land in the feed every day, and anything you have saved is permanent — an ad you kept in January is still there after the advertiser takes it down.

$47/month for Core, $147 for Pro, $297 for Scale. Every plan gets the whole workflow — the feed, SwipeFeed, briefs, AI search and tagging, video analysis, Forge and AI generation. What changes with the tier is scale: monthly credits (2,500 / 12,000 / 30,000), how many brands you track (5 / 25 / 75), how much you can run at once, and whether unused credits roll over. Yearly billing saves about 20%. Every plan starts with a free trial, no card required.
