4. Key Features & Capabilities

Solution: Creative analytics

Motion’s fundamental tool that enables you to build beautiful reports and dashboards that will illustrate which of your ads are winning and why. Some key report types include:

Creative analytics features:

Top performing reports: A flexible report type that allows you to group your creatives, then filter and sort your ads based on date range and your target performance metrics. You can then add filters to zoom in on different cohorts (certain campaigns, certain products, etc). This will give you a clear picture of your top-performing ad creative.

Comparative analysis reports: Comparative reports allow you to see higher-level trends within your account - whether it's comparing funnel stages to each other, products, promo messaging, creators/talent, ad formats, etc. The sky is the limit - as long as it is within your naming conventions or captured by AI Tags.

Launch analysis reports: A report that tracks your recently launched creative so you can quickly identify which ads are scaling, which are declining, and which are your early winners.

Naming conventions: A feature for sophisticated teams looking to add structure to their data by creating naming conventions based on key variables across your ads. You can then use these variables as filter criteria on Motion reports.

AI tags: A new feature that uses AI to apply custom tags to each of your ads based on 8 key categories. These tags will give you insight into how ad algorithms like Andromeda see your ads so you can more easily spot gaps and identify winning trends.

AI tasks: AI workflows based on the most frequent behavior of Motion users, so you can skip the prompting and jump straight to the results. In one click, these tasks help you analyze reports, review your creative diversity, and much more.

Inbox: A mailbox for all of your AI task outputs so you can review past tasks and find your latest runs.

Agent chat: After any AI task runs, you can ask follow-up questions to clarify results, request changes, or explore next steps. It's like having a conversation with a really sharp Creative Strategist about your output.

Snapshots: Share frozen or live data reports or AI task outputs with your team, clients or agencies using Motion’s Snapshot feature. No platform access required.

Solution: Inspo 

A powerful creative research tool that allows you to follow other advertisers, save ads you like, and monitor new ads in a feed-like experience. Here is more info on each feature:

Inspo features:

Following: A feed where you can view all of the recently launched ads by brands you follow. You can also filter and sort your feed based on dimensions like recency, industry, brand, status, active time, and format.

Saved: A library of all the ads your team has saved on your account. These can also be filtered and sorted based on the same dimensions.

Brand intel: A hub where you can search, view, and manage all of the brands you are currently following or use AI tasks to analyze what those brands are up to.

Boards: Any ad can be added to custom boards so you can organize them based on themes, users, projects, etc.

Platform Capabilities

Data integrations: Integrate Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Northbeam to bring your most accurate and advanced attribution data into your Motion experience.

9. Why Motion & Why Now

Why Motion?

Making winning ads is no longer a game of luck. It’s a precise science, and to the ad scientist, Motion is a well-equipped lab. With a little direction, Motion’s AI-enabled platform will identify trends in your winning ads, then help you generate and brief new ideas so you can keep the hits coming.

Why now?

The landscape of paid social is changing fast and it’s more important than ever to have the right technology in place to help you navigate these changes.

Some key trends to be aware of include:

1. Increased ad competition, which is driving up costs on all platforms
2. Meta’s Andromeda update, which is making creatives fatigue faster and the demand for diverse creative greater
3. AI is making it easier than ever to create ads, but harder than ever to create great ads

And on top of all this, many teams still juggle spreadsheets, disconnected dashboards and guesswork. Motion erases all of that manual work and turns ad data into actionable strategy.

11. Glossary of Key Motion Terms

These are the most important terms to know regarding Motion and it’s application in creative strategy.

Creative Diversity: The range of creative ideas, formats, hooks, offers, and visual styles represented across a brand’s ads. Higher creative diversity reduces fatigue and increases the chances of finding new high-performing concepts.

Scaling Ad: An ad that is trending upward in performance and efficiency, usually gaining spend, impressions, or conversions while improving or maintaining target KPIs. Motion flags these as early winners in Launch Analysis and Top Performing reports.

Declining Ad: An ad whose performance is trending down against its historical benchmarks. Declining ads often show signs of fatigue or reduced relevance, and Motion identifies them so teams can refresh or replace them before efficiency drops.

Hook: The opening message, visual, or creative element designed to capture attention in the first seconds of an ad. Motion uses AI Tags and Comparative Analysis to identify which hooks reliably drive stronger performance.

Visual-first Analysis: A method of reviewing ads that begins with the creative itself — the video or image — before looking at performance metrics. Motion’s reporting tools combine visual previews with KPIs so teams can understand results in the context of the actual creative.

Inspiration: Motion’s creative research tool that lets teams follow brands, monitor new ads, save examples, and organize ideas into boards. It centralizes creative inspiration so strategists can spot trends and source ideas for new concepts.
