TradesAd checks ad copy against a library of ad-policy rules and returns a verdict with the offending sentence quoted and a suggested fix. It is a pre-screen: it cannot tell you an ad will be approved. Built for home-service marketing agencies, it covers US and UK ad rules and runs fully online.

Key features

  • Checks ad copy against a library of ad-policy rules and returns a verdict with the offending sentence quoted and a suggested fix
  • Covers US and UK rules, with a region selector and a policy version stamp
  • 62 to 66 rule patterns per trade vertical
  • Google and Meta ad account connections, high-risk alerts and a client watchlist (Pro Agency and up)
  • White-label PDF reports and a GoHighLevel integration (Pro Agency and up)
  • Local SEO audits for Google Business Profile

What stands out

  • Free forever plan with one audit a month and the full rule-engine report
