Returns only what the Ad Library publishes: no targeting, no exact spend for commercial ads and no ad performance. Spend and reach ranges appear only on political and issue ads. Meta rate-limits datacenter IPs, so residential proxy is the default. Image and video URLs are Meta CDN links that expire after some days.
Pay per result on Apify, no subscription: $0.00065 per ad plus $0.00005 per run start. Duplicates and, in new-ads-only mode, ads already delivered are not charged. The live price is on the actor page.
