Keep Brand Spy and Clone Ads on the vendor side
SwipeHarbor publishes this comparison and sells one of the products. Competitor features below come from the public vendor pages read on 13 October 2026.
The GetHookd homepage read on 13 October 2026 describes a Meta ad library, Brand Spy, Shops, Boards, and Clone Ads. Brand Spy is described as a feed of ads from a brand you add. Clone Ads is described as new static variations based on an existing ad. Boards are described as a place where a saved ad can be seen by a team.
Those are GetHookd features. SwipeHarbor does not claim Brand Spy, Clone Ads, or shared team boards. The SwipeHarbor FAQ says collections and notes belong to the account and are not shared with other members.
The same GetHookd page says the library is Facebook and Instagram ads and that TikTok is not included.

Compare saved research without copying the creative tool
A Meta researcher may want a saved brand feed, or a new static image, or a note on one captured ad. Only the third task is the SwipeHarbor job. NewsBreak, Rumble, and YouTube are additional SwipeHarbor sources. They are not on the GetHookd FAQ limit, which says the library is Meta only.
| Tool and source | Research focus | Public vendor claim | What to verify |
|---|---|---|---|
| GetHookd: Brand Spy | A vendor feed for one brand | The homepage describes Brand Spy as a feed of ads from a brand you add, with launch timing and a live count as vendor fields. | Add one known brand and record which fields you can see on that feed. |
| GetHookd: Clone Ads and Boards | Vendor creative output and team visibility | The homepage describes Clone Ads as new statics from an existing ad, and Boards as a shared save for a team. | Treat both as GetHookd features. Do not expect either feature in SwipeHarbor. |
| SwipeHarbor: private notes and four platforms | Meta, NewsBreak, Rumble, and YouTube | The paid library covers those four platforms. Notes stay on the account. The product does not generate ads. | Save the source ad and your note. Do not describe that note as a shared board. |
