Overview

See real view counts and performance data for every YouTube ad in Google's Ad Library for free.

The only YouTube ad spy tool that works directly inside Google's Ad Transparency Center. Completely free. Other YouTube ad spy tools charge $99-$497/month for data you can now get for free. Pathfinder is a Chrome extension that enriches the YouTube Ad Library with real performance data: actual view counts, days live, and growth velocity for every ad you discover. WHAT PATHFINDER DOES: Real View Counts - See exactly how many views every YouTube ad has. No estimates, no guesses. Know which ads are actually winning. Days Live Tracking - See how long each ad has been running. Ads that run for months are proven winners worth studying. Endless Library - Search 500M+ YouTube ads by brand, keyword, or category. Find relevant ads in seconds, not hours. Direct Ad Links - Get direct YouTube links to every ad. Watch the full creative, study the hook, analyze the CTA. Save Winners to Your Swipe File (Pro) - Favorite the best ads with one click. Build a library of proven creative to reference anytime. Video Filters (Pro) - Sort by views, date, or velocity to find ads that are scaling right now. Spot trends before your competitors do. WHO USES PATHFINDER: - Media buyers running YouTube campaigns who need to justify creative direction with data - DTC founders spending $5K-$50K/month on YouTube who want to see what's working for competitors - Creative strategists at agencies building ad concepts and scripts from proven winners - SaaS marketers scaling YouTube as an acquisition channel who need competitive intelligence WHY PATHFINDER OVER PAID TOOLS: - Pathfinder (Free): YouTube view counts, works natively in the Ad Library, Chrome extension - VidTao ($97-$497/mo): Has view counts but only for the small % of ads they track, and requires a separate platform - Foreplay ($49-$99/mo): No YouTube data, separate platform, Chrome extension is Meta-focused HOW IT WORKS 1. Install Pathfinder (free, takes 10 seconds) 2. Go to Google's Ads Transparency Center 3. Search any brand 4.
