AdTest.AI
AI-Only Testing

Your extra creative eyes.
Available in ~90 seconds.

Upload your creative — image, video, carousel, or messaging — and receive a calibrated, multi-dimension AI report covering Message Clarity, Originality, Emotional & Persuasive Resonance, Brand Recognition, Call-to-Action strength, predicted CTR, competitor scoring, and recommended channels.

What you get

Calibrated. Comparable. Defensible.

Each dimension is its own engineered prompt running through specialised models. Outputs are normalised against category benchmarks so a 4.2 in beverage means the same as a 4.2 in fintech.

01
Core Message & Clarity

Will a viewer understand what's being sold and why it matters within the first three seconds? Measures information hierarchy, headline directness, and decoding effort.

02
Originality

How distinctive is the creative against category conventions and competitor templates? Penalises me-too execution. Rewards memorable craft.

03
Emotional Resonance & Persuasiveness

Does it move the viewer — and does that emotion translate into intent to act? Built on persuasion research, not just sentiment analysis.

04
Visual Design & Hook

Is the opening frame strong enough to stop the scroll? Composition, focal hierarchy, contrast, motion — analysed by purpose-built vision models.

05
Brand Asset Distinctiveness

Are colours, logo, voice and characters unmistakably yours — even with the brand name removed? The Byron Sharp question, automated.

06
Celebrity / Character Elements

When endorsers or mascots appear, do they reinforce or compete with the brand message? Catches the "you remember the celebrity but not the product" trap.

07
Overall Effectiveness

A weighted composite score predicting how the ad will perform against its stated objective. Your CMO's headline number.

08
Brand Recognition

How quickly and confidently can a viewer identify the advertiser without seeing the logo? Measures attribution risk in the first three seconds.

09
Cognitive Neuro Balance

Right-brain emotional cues vs. left-brain rational cues — calibrated to category and objective. Built on behavioural neuromarketing research.

10
Platform Delivery & Visibility

Is the format optimised for the channel? Aspect ratio, sound-off legibility, captioning, pacing — channel-specific rubrics.

11
Goal Alignment & Strategic Intent

Awareness, consideration, conversion — is the creative actually built for the funnel stage you booked it for? Misalignment is a top reason creative underperforms.

12
Predictive CTR & Competitor Score

Estimated click-through performance and a head-to-head comparison against category benchmarks. Triage 30 variants without buying impressions to find out.

13
Compliance & Brand Safety

Regulatory red-flags, platform policy risk, and brand-safety issues — flagged before launch, especially valuable in regulated categories.

The report

Reports that read like a to-do list, not a spreadsheet.

Your verdict comes first. Every scoring dimension expands in place to show what's working and what to change — with the weakest dimension already open, so the fastest way to a better ad is the first thing you see.

Greenlight to launch
01Core Message & Clarity4.6/5
What's working
The offer is readable in the first frame and the product is unmistakable — a viewer knows what is being sold within three seconds.
Recommendation
Protect this in every variant: keep the headline and product shot in the opening frame when you resize for Story or Landscape.
02Originality3.9/5
What's working
The colour treatment breaks category convention and the pacing feels fresh.
Recommendation
The layout still echoes competitor templates — try an unexpected opening frame or a bolder crop on the hero shot.
03Emotional Resonance4.4/5
What's working
The reveal lands a genuine moment, and the emotion translates into intent to act.
Recommendation
Hold the reaction shot half a second longer before the cut to the end card.
04Brand Distinctiveness4.1/5
What's working
Palette and typography are ownable even with the logo removed.
Recommendation
Bring the mascot in earlier so brand recall starts before the end card, not on it.
05Cognitive Neuro Balance3.4/5
What's working
Strong right-brain emotional cues throughout — the ad feels rather than argues.
Recommendation
Almost no rational proof point. Add one concrete benefit line (price, speed, guarantee) before the CTA to balance the read.
06Predictive CTR Lift4.5/5
What's working
Predicted to beat the category baseline by ~18% on Reels and TikTok In-Feed.
Recommendation
A stronger verb in the CTA could add a few more points — "Get" beats "Learn more".

Weakest dimension opens first — the fastest route to a better ad is the first thing you see.

Four formats

One engine. Four creative formats.

The same multi-prompt orchestration handles whatever you bring — from a single hero image to a 60-second cut, a multi-card carousel, or bare copy.

Image creative

Static social, display, OOH, print. Visual hierarchy, brand asset use, message clarity, channel-format fit.

Video creative

Reels, In-Feed, YouTube, CTV. First-3-second hook strength, sound-off legibility, pacing, payoff.

Messaging copy

Headlines, body copy, CTA microcopy. Tone, clarity, distinctiveness, conversion potential, framing alternatives.

Carousel creative

Multi-card Meta, Instagram and LinkedIn carousels scored as one story. Per-card diagnostics show where it hooks and where it loses the swipe, with a dedicated PDF report.

For developers & AI agents

Building ads with an AI agent? Let it test them first.

AdTest isn't just for people. Any AI agent that writes ad creative can call our API to score every variant across 13 dimensions — then automatically rewrite the weak ones before a cent of budget is spent. We also ship a native Claude MCP, so Claude can use AdTest as a tool right out of the box.

  • Score before you spend. Your agent gets an instant Mixed Score on every ad it generates.
  • Auto-improve the losers. Pass low-scoring creative back through the API and ship only what's predicted to win.
  • Native Claude MCP. Connect AdTest as a tool inside Claude in one line — no glue code.

Create a free account, then open the Developers section in the app to grab your API key. The same key powers the REST API and the Claude MCP server (AI-only scoring).

The API & MCP interface is not included in the free trial.
