What is AdPlay.ai?
AdPlay.ai is an AI ad tool for businesses that advertise on Facebook and Instagram. It finds winning ads in your market, makes image ads for your products and launches them to your own Meta ad account. On Pro and Agency, Copilot also suggests what to change. It is not an ad network for showing ads inside your own app or website.

Free trial, plans and creditsFree trial and credits
Do I need a credit card for the free trial?
No. Every new account starts on a free 7-day trial with 500 credits, and no card is needed. On the trial you can research one product, make 2 image ads, search the Ad Library and chat with AdGPT.
Free trial, plans and creditsWhat happens when my trial ends?
Your account stays open and nothing is deleted. AI work stops, and the Ad Library, AdGPT chat and launching ask you to upgrade. Campaigns and Insights stay open to read, and you can still open the editor and download what you made. Pick a plan and it all comes back.
Free trial, plans and creditsDo unused credits roll over to next month?
Monthly credits do not roll over. They refresh each month, on annual plans too. Credits you buy as a top-up never expire and are used after your monthly credits.
Free trial, plans and creditsDo AdPlay.ai credits pay for my Meta ad spend?
No. Credits pay only for AI work in AdPlay.ai, such as research and making ads. Meta charges your ad spend to the payment method on your own ad account.

Not normally. Each plan includes footage that AdPlay.ai looks through for usable clips every month: 2 hours on Starter, 10 hours on Pro and 30 hours on Agency, up to the first 10 minutes of each video. Past that, a new video waits until next month at no cost, or you can choose to pay 1 credit a minute to have it looked through now.
