What is it?

Motion is a reporting tool for ad creative. It pulls every image and video from your ad accounts, shows the actual creative next to its results, and groups them so you can see which hooks, formats and concepts are working.

Where ad managers show rows of numbers, Motion shows the ads themselves with hook rate, hold rate and spend. Its AI tags creative elements and writes up what the data says, which makes briefing the next round of ads far easier.

It's priced for brands and agencies spending serious money. Below that, the native ad reports plus a spreadsheet will get you most of the way.
