Advantage+ creative is the option many Meta advertisers already have. It lives inside Ads Manager, so when you add an image or video or build a catalog ad, Meta's AI can generate and enhance variations across single image, video and carousel formats, including background generation for catalog ads, video expansion and image animation. Meta reports a 2 to 3% lift in conversions from background generation for Advantage+ catalog ads and a 2% lift for Facebook Reels with video expansion. Features that use generative AI show an AI logo, you can preview some variations before publishing, and every enhancement can be switched off. The Marketing API supports opt-in, opt-out and previews for some features, which helps teams that build campaigns programmatically. The limits are clear: it only serves Facebook and Instagram placements, some enhancements may be on by default, and previews are samples rather than every variation a viewer may see. We could not find a published price, so the USD check is pending.
