Templates / Ads
Google Ads
Checks each company against Google's Ads Transparency Center — whether they are advertising at all, how many ads, how long they have been running and what formats.
What it isTemplate
A ready-made column. It opens the editor pre-filled, so you look it over once and hit Add.
InputWhat you give it
Paste company websites (one per line)
stripe.com figma.com
A website or bare domain per row — Google’s ad library is keyed on the advertiser’s domain.

How it worksTwo things you decide
- Map the domain columnA bare domain, a full URL or a host all work — it reduces them to the registrable domain itself.
- Run it across the listNo browser and no login is involved, so this is the cheapest of the three ad checks to run at scale.
Limits — read this before you run it
No browser, no cookie, no login — it reads a public library. Longevity is pre-computed by Google rather than measured by us. A company advertising only on other networks looks inactive here. 1 action per row.
FAQQuestions people actually ask
Why does a company I know advertises show nothing?
The Transparency Center indexes by verified advertiser. A company buying through an agency can appear under the agency's name instead.
What does "Add run condition" do?
Skips rows where a condition on another column isn't met — e.g. only run if Email is empty. Skipped rows cost no actions, on both manual and auto runs.
What does "Auto-run on new rows" do?
Runs this column by itself whenever new rows arrive — no clicking Run. It only picks up new arrivals; rows already in the table when you turn it on are left alone. It only fires while the app is open — closing it pauses everything until you reopen.
