Motion alternative for competitor ad research, not just your own reporting

Motion is a creative analytics tool: you connect your ad accounts and it scores how your own creatives perform, with hook scores and visual reports. That is genuinely useful once you are spending. The gap people hit is that Motion can only report on ads you have already made and paid to run. It cannot show you what your competitors are testing, which is where most winning angles actually come from.

AdEye works the other side of the problem. Instead of connecting your ad account, it reads the public ad libraries and pulls your competitors live ads from Meta, Google, TikTok and YouTube into one feed, then AI-tags each hook, angle and format and flags the ones that keep running. If a Motion alternative to you means competitor creative research rather than in-house performance reporting, that is exactly what AdEye is for. Many teams run both: Motion to grade their spend, AdEye to find the next thing worth testing.
