LinkedIn Ad Library Scraper & New Ads Monitor

LinkedIn publishes every ad that ran on its platform in the past year, but browsing the Ad Library by hand gets old fast. This scraper pulls those ads into a dataset and, run daily, shows you only the new ones.

What it does

Search the LinkedIn Ad Library by company, keyword or payer, and the tool collects every matching ad, newest first. It works on LinkedIn's public, logged-out pages, so you don't need an account or cookies. For each ad you get:

  • The creative: ad copy, headline, call to action and format (single image, video, carousel, document, message, event and others), with image and video links and carousel cards.
  • The advertiser: company name and ID, LinkedIn page and logo, and who paid for the ad.
  • The landing page, with its UTM parameters, which often reveal campaign names and the tools behind them.
  • EU transparency data when details are switched on: start and end dates, days running, impression ranges, impressions by country and the targeting used, such as language, location, job, company or audience.

Like our other ad monitors, it has an only new ads mode. It remembers which ads it has already returned for each search, so a daily schedule gives you just the ads that appeared since the last run. Each search also gets a free summary row with the number of ads found, the new ones, the formats used and the top advertisers.

The tool collects ad data only. It does not collect personal profile data.

Who uses it

  • B2B marketers, ABM and demand generation teams who want to see competitors' new LinkedIn campaigns as they launch.
  • Creative and messaging teams studying which offers, formats, CTAs and landing pages competitors test.
  • Agencies watching many client competitors at once; the payer field shows when an agency runs an account.
  • Teams selling into Europe who want to know which countries and job functions a competitor targets.
  • Marketers researching who advertises on a theme such as “crm” or “cybersecurity” in a given country.

How it works

  1. Enter competitor names, LinkedIn company URLs, keywords or payers, and choose the country and date range.
  2. Decide whether you want details. Searching alone is cheaper; details add the full copy, landing page, payer and EU data.
  3. Run it once or schedule it daily with “only new ads”, then send the results to Slack, email, Google Sheets or a webhook.

Example output

Example output: one ad with details, shortened. Field names match the tool's output; the values come from a sample run and will differ for your searches.

Pricing

Pay per use on Apify. No subscription from us.

  • $0.005 per run
  • $0.005 per search (one company, keyword or payer, all result pages and the summary row)
  • $1.50 per 1,000 ads
  • $1.50 per 1,000 ads with details (added on top, only when the detail page was fetched)

Summary and error rows are free, and with “only new ads” on you pay only for new ads. Watching 10 competitors daily with about five new ads each, details included, comes to roughly $0.21 a day. If a run stops at your cost or ad limit, ads that were not delivered are not marked as seen, so you get them next time.

Limits

  • Impressions and targeting are available for EU ads only. LinkedIn publishes that data for ads shown in the European Union; elsewhere you get the creative, advertiser, payer and landing page.
  • No spend or click data. LinkedIn publishes impression ranges, not budgets.
  • Without details, the ad copy in search results is often shortened by LinkedIn. Turn details on when the full text matters.

Can I monitor a company by its LinkedIn URL?
