Ad Archive
A permanent, searchable collection of ads that have been served over time. Unlike the live ad stream (which disappears as campaigns end), an archive preserves creatives with stable URLs, datestamps and context. Archives are used by marketers for competitive research, by researchers for historical analysis, and by regulators for accountability.
