1. Create your account
CreativeScout accounts are created through checkout. Subscribe on creativescout.ai/checkout with your work email. As soon as the payment is confirmed you receive a welcome email with a login link. There is no separate signup form and no password required.
2. Sign in
Open app.creativescout.ai and enter your email. We send you a magic link plus a login code. Click the link or type the code, done. If you prefer a password, you can set one later under Settings.
3. Name your workspace
On first login you name your workspace. That is your team's home: boards, saved ads and settings live inside it. You can invite teammates under Settings at any time, they get full member access.
4. Meet your boards
Boards are your swipe file. Every workspace starts with a default board called "Saved". Create more boards for offers, angles, competitors or clients, whatever structure fits your research.
5. Save your first ad
Three ways in:
- Search: scout the EU ad library right inside the app: keyword search, filters for runtime, reach, country and landing page technology, plus curated Winning presets. Hit the bookmark on any result. See the search guide.
- Browser extension: save ads directly while browsing the Meta Ad Library. See the browser extension guide.
- Manual add: on any board, click "Add ad manually", paste the ad's Library URL or ID, optionally add the ad text and landing page, save.
Everything you save is a permanent snapshot of the facts: the ad text, the landing page, the runtime. Even if the ad later disappears from Meta, your record stays.
