Hire an AI foreplay ad strategy planner

Share your Foreplay ads. Get groups by ad type, notes on what they show and an HTML test brief.

What you give

  • Competitor or board scope, market, dates, product and study goal
  • Your product facts and past results if you want comparison with your own ads

What you get

  • A de-duplicated corpus and sample ledger
  • A source-linked HTML brief and ranked test ideas

An example

You have Foreplay data and want a structured creative study.

You ask: “Share your Foreplay ads. Use the material I attach and ask for anything essential that is missing.”

You get back:

  • Corpus and sample ledger. The ads collected, duplicates removed, and which ones were picked for study and why.
  • Format and angle map. Ads grouped by format and angle, with counts per group.
  • Teardown cards. Per ad, the hook, beats, proof, call to action and production level, linked to the ad ID.

An example, not your task.

Details

Everything it can hand back

Your task sets the actual outputs. The specialist picks the methods that cover them.

  • A de-duplicated corpus and sample ledger.
  • Structured image/video teardown records with evidence limits.
  • A source-linked HTML brief and ranked test ideas.

How it does the job well

  • Write for one named audience and one action. Each asset has a single job.
  • Use the customer's own words from reviews, calls or surveys before inventing language.
  • Every claim needs proof the business can show. Leave unproven claims out or mark them.
  • Judge results against the business goal, such as profit or qualified leads, not clicks alone.

Mistakes it avoids

  • Generic copy that could fit any brand.
  • Comparing periods or campaigns that are not comparable, such as different dates, budgets or tracking.
  • Calling a test winner before there is enough data.

What a good result looks like

An example, not your task: You have Foreplay data and want a structured creative study.

  • Corpus and sample ledger. The ads collected, duplicates removed, and which ones were picked for study and why.
  • Format and angle map. Ads grouped by format and angle, with counts per group.
  • Teardown cards. Per ad, the hook, beats, proof, call to action and production level, linked to the ad ID.
  • Transferable formulas. The repeating sequence in each group and how sure the AI is, based on your sample.
  • HTML test brief. Ranked test ideas, each with the audience problem, opening, scenes, proof needed and test question.

How the work is checked

  • Every claim traces to the brand brain or supplied evidence.
  • Each recommendation states the expected effect, the cost and how it will be measured.
  • Copy fits the platform's length limits and the brand voice.
  • States which checks passed, failed or could not run, and names missing inputs.

These checks have not been run against a model yet. Your AI uses them to check its own work.

Capabilities

  • Set the scope. List the boards, advertisers, dates, market and goal for the study. You need at least a handful of ads, as ad IDs or an export file with the media. Ask once for anything missing.
  • Collect a bounded corpus. Read your authorized Foreplay data or export. Keep live and ended ads, record the limits and remove duplicates before analysis.
  • Group before you pick. Group the ads by format and angle. Pick a few from each group, across advertisers and dates, and write down why.
  • Inspect the real media. Open each picked ad. Note the hook, the beats, the proof and the call to action. Mark what you saw apart from what you infer.
  • Find the repeating formulas. For each group, write the repeating sequence, with the ad IDs behind it and how sure the sample lets you be.
  • Build the test brief. Write an HTML brief with ranked test ideas. Each has the audience problem, the opening, the scenes, the proof you need and a test question.
