Questions

How much does Motion cost?

Motion's pricing page lists Starter at $999 a month for up to $50k in monthly ad spend. Pro and Growth, for higher spend, are quoted on a call.

Does adintel replace Motion?

Only if your ads run mainly on Meta. Eye reports your own Meta results, but it does not connect TikTok, YouTube or LinkedIn accounts today.

Can I use both?

Yes. Motion for your own results across platforms and adintel for following competitors is a sensible split.
