longest 153d

Tractive lost 2 of its 5 winning ads and gained 1 new one this week, leaving just 4 survivors out of 1653 active Meta ads, and for the first time HyperScale agents x-rayed all 4. None run in English anymore: one Finnish testimonial, one Dutch feature reel, one Spanish danger-alert story, one Italian multi-pet piece, with the Finnish ad now the longest-runner at 125 days.

longest 185d

Tinder added 84 new 30-day survivors this week and retired just 3, pushing the winning set to 171 of 844 active ads. Yet the dominant angle, profile personality match, still rides one repeatable shot: an image creative with a male 25-34 presenter talking straight to camera, now carrying 67 of those wins.

longest 97d

Of 977 active Hinge ads, only 91 survive past 30 days, and the longest has run 151 days on one beat: a female 25-34 presenter, opening on a Hinge profile-prompt overlay ('My love language is joining me on my...', a hook that held 49 days) before turning to camera. Personality over photos is now the biggest angle at 21 ads, edging out the 16-ad deletion and testimonial plays.

longest 152d

Tipsy Chat's biggest engine still has no face on screen: 43 of 111 surviving ads run the possessive-drama roleplay hook as ~20-second product/app footage alone, the account's single largest pattern. Possessive Drama Romance Fan has overtaken Fandom Character Chaser as the top-tagged buyer (44 vs 35 ads), while the 'shy in person' copy seeding 6 ads still maps to zero matching creative, even as the longest ad now runs 264 days.

longest 87d

Wyze's winning set contracted again, from 21 ads down to 15, as 16 ads retired against 10 new winners since July 27. The leading formula flipped too: product showcase carousels with zero on-camera talent now claim 5 of 15 winners, displacing the presenter-led install-demo build that topped the account before.

longest 76d

Planner 5D runs 72 active Meta ads but only 24 survive past 30 days, all English, all video, topping out at 52 days. Half that winning set rides two tied angles, layout confirmation and magic app claim (6 ads each), built on the same shot: a woman 25-34 on camera fixing a bathroom layout in under 20 seconds.

longest 66d

RIZZ retired 36 ads since 2026-07-21 and added just 1 new winner, leaving only 8 of 62 active ads past the 30-day mark. Three of those eight, all wordless product-only shots with zero on-camera presenters, tie at the account's max of 94 days: 'THE LAST DOORMAT YOU WILL EVER BUY,' 'The world's Finest doormat,' and 'The Art of An Entrance.' Meanwhile 908 reviews log 208 paywall complaints that none of the winning set's 3 primary texts ever touch.
