AdFlex operates three independent collection engines to improve reliability and coverage. Each engine collects data from several advertising platforms. After collection, enrichment pipelines analyze creatives and landing pages, extract structured metadata, and add campaign-level signals.

• Live database: Over 400 million ads and growing rapidly.
• Daily observations: Over 6 million appearances across all supported platforms.
• Daily unique ads: Roughly 796,000, based on the current platform breakdown.

AdFlex identifies a unique ad using the combination of its source platform and platform-provided ad ID. Repeated observations of the same ad are consolidated under one ad record, even when the ad is collected multiple times.

These numbers show the number of unique ads and total ad observations recorded per platform each day:
