See every ad your competitor is running

Here's how to see your competitor's ads with ChatGPT or Claude: every ad they're running in Google's public ad library, and which one they've run the longest.

    What came back

    Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5) sent back, word for word:

    I checked Google's Ads Transparency Center through Firecrawl Alexandria today, Oct 20, 2026, with the region set to US. I counted an ad as running "right now" if Google last showed it today.

    HelloFresh is running 8 Google ads in the US right now

    HelloFresh has three advertiser accounts, all registered as "HelloFresh SE" in Germany. Only the main one (AR17410177287600472065) has any active ads. The other two accounts have 6 video ads between them, and none has run since November 2025.

    Formats of the 8 active ads:

    • 7 Text (Search ads)
    • 1 Video (started Aug 6, 2026)
    • 0 Image. HelloFresh ran a lot of image ads in 2025, but the last one stopped on Apr 7, 2026.

    When the active ads started:

    Aug 6–8, 20263 text + 1 video75–76

    Half of the active ads started in early August. That points to a new campaign launched in late summer.

    The longest-running active ad

    CR04038775194033061889, a text ad. It was first shown on Jan 17, 2025, Google counts 642 days shown, and it was last shown today. Ad page: https://adstransparency.google.com/advertiser/AR17410177287600472065/creative/CR04038775194033061889?region=US

    A video ad (CR01471839147210571777) ran longer, at 716 days, but it stopped in January 2026.

    Limits of this count:

    • I searched by advertiser account, not by the hellofresh.com domain. Ads run by affiliates or partners that point to HelloFresh aren't included.
    • Google doesn't publish spend or impressions for non-political ads, so I can't tell you how much budget each ad gets.

    The ad listings and the account lookup cost 20 Firecrawl credits in total.
