PowerAdSpy costs $69, $99, $279, or $399 per month on the four plans the vendor actually sells. Yearly billing is where the invoice gets interesting. Basic falls to $27/mo ($331/year). Standard falls to $39/mo ($475/year). Palladium falls to $119/mo ($1,436/year). Platinum’s yearly total is not printed as a round number on the public page. The badge says Save 70%, which would land around $83/mo if it matches Palladium’s cut.
I signed up, used the $1 Basic trial, and then walked the plan ladder so I could tell you which seat is a real buy and which one is a logo. Here’s a quick overview of how PowerAdSpy pricing works, what each plan actually includes, and who should pay for what.
How much does PowerAdSpy cost?
PowerAdSpy costs $69 on Basic, $99 on Standard, $279 on Platinum, or $399 on Palladium with monthly billing. Yearly billing drops Basic to $27/mo ($331/year), Standard to $39/mo ($475/year), and Palladium to $119/mo ($1,436/year). Platinum yearly is listed as a Save 70% badge, not a printed total, so confirm that line at checkout.
There is no free plan. The cheapest look is the $1 three-day trial on Basic. Continue reading if you want the gates that make people overpay: brand limits, niche-coverage networks, and monthly prices that only make sense if you refuse to pay a year.
Quick verdict on PowerAdSpy pricing
Best for: Facebook and Instagram research if you can pay a year upfront on Basic.
Not ideal for: Native or push buyers, and anyone who only wanted a week of searches at the monthly rate.
Bottom line: Buy Basic yearly. Standard if you live in Pinterest and Google Display. Ignore Palladium until LinkedIn, Reddit, and Quora ads are a written part of the job.
My rating on value: 4.1/5 on Basic yearly. About 3.3/5 if you pay month to month.
Key takeaways
- Four plans, not six. Older blogs still sell Premium and Titanium. Those SKUs are gone.
- Basic is Facebook and Instagram. It used to be sold as Facebook-only. That is a HUGE change if you spy Meta creatives.
- The cheap seat is yearly Basic at $331. Monthly Basic at $69 is not a bargain next to Tyver Pro at $79.
- Brand limits are the hidden gate: 1 brand on Basic, 5 on Standard, 10 on Platinum, 30 on Palladium.
- Trials are $1 for 3 days on Basic, $7 for 3 days on the other three. Cancel before day 3 or you pay the full monthly rate.

Let’s look at each plan the way I used it, because the names do a lot of marketing and the filters do the real work.
Basic plan: $69 monthly or $331 a year
Basic is the only PowerAdSpy plan I would buy for myself. You get Facebook and Instagram, keyword / advertiser / domain search, core filters (category, CTA, country, sort), and the AI metadata filters for intent, hook, and colors. Views are unlimited on those two networks.
So what’s the catch? One brand. If you track five competitors, you are already on Standard whether you wanted Pinterest or not. This is probably my biggest complaint about the whole ladder. PowerAdSpy should fix this. A Meta spy with a 1-brand cap trains you to upgrade for the wrong reason.
Year-one math is the reason Basic still wins. $69 × 12 is $828. Yearly is $331. That is 60% off if you will actually log in for twelve months. If you might cancel in week three, take the $1 trial and do not pay yearly yet.
I searched a weight-loss VSL domain I already knew was spending. Basic returned the Facebook and Instagram cuts with country and CTA filters. I was not missing YouTube on day one. I was missing a second brand slot.
Standard plan: $99 monthly or $475 a year
Standard adds Pinterest and Google Display, targeting filters (type, position, gender, age), and the ad tracker. Brand limit jumps to five. That five-brand unlock is why a lot of people leave Basic, not because they suddenly needed GDN.
Monthly Standard is $99. Yearly is $39/mo, billed as $475. If Pinterest creatives are part of your week, this is the honest upgrade. If you only wanted five Facebook advertisers, you are paying for two extra networks you may never open. Have a look at the filter list before you click up.
Platinum plan: $279 monthly
Platinum is marked Best Selling on their site. It adds YouTube, native, and Google Search, plus device / affiliate / ecom / funnel filters and estimated ad budget. Brand limit is 10.
Here’s the thing: native on PowerAdSpy is not Anstrex, and YouTube on PowerAdSpy is not a dedicated YouTube spy. You are buying breadth. I opened the extra networks on a trial. Useful as a scan. Not a reason to drop a specialist desk.
Yearly Platinum is the fuzzy one. The public page does not print a $X,XXX total the way it does for Basic and Palladium. The Save 70% badge implies something near $83/mo. Confirm the number at checkout. Do not trust a blog that invents $999/year from an old screenshot.
Palladium plan: $399 monthly or $1,436 a year
Palladium is the “all 11 networks” badge. LinkedIn, TikTok, Quora, and Reddit are labeled niche coverage. Brand limit is 30. Monthly is $399. Yearly is $119/mo, which is $1,436 upfront.
I would not pay this unless an agency workflow needs one login that can glance at everything. TikTok Shop work still belongs on a TikTok spy. Native media buying still belongs on a native spy. Palladium is a convenience tax. Sometimes that tax is worth it. Usually it is not.
Monthly vs yearly: the real PowerAdSpy cost
This is the section most pricing pages skip, and it is the whole product.
| Plan | If you pay monthly for 12 months | If you pay yearly | You keep |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $828 | $331 | $497 |
| Standard | $1,188 | $475 | $713 |
| Platinum | $3,348 | Confirm at checkout (~70% off) | The yearly toggle, not a guess |
| Palladium | $4,788 | $1,436 | $3,352 |
Yearly is billed as one charge. You keep access until the period ends. Upgrades are immediate. Downgrades wait for the next cycle. No long-term contract in the legal sense, but yearly is still a year of cash out the door.
Isn’t that handy if you already live in Facebook Ads Manager? Yes. Is it handy if you wanted to “try Palladium for a month”? No. Use the $7 trial for that, then decide.
Hidden gates in PowerAdSpy pricing
Sticker prices look simple. The gates are why people overpay.
- Brand limits. Basic’s 1-brand cap is the upgrade engine. Count the advertisers you actually watch before you pick a plan.
- Network labels. LinkedIn, TikTok, Quora, and Reddit are niche coverage on Palladium. Hover the chips on their pricing page. Do not assume AdPlexity-depth indexes.
- Trials convert to monthly, not yearly. The $1 / $7 look becomes the monthly rate on day 4 if you forget billing.
- Unlimited views, limited everything else. You are not burning Minea-style AI credits on ad browsing. You are burning brand slots and network access.
Which PowerAdSpy plan should you buy?
Affiliates buying Facebook offers: Basic yearly. You need creatives and pages, not Quora.
Dropshippers: Basic yearly if ads are the job. If products and shops are the job, price out Minea before you add a second invoice.
Creative teams who also spy Pinterest: Standard yearly. Five brands, four networks, $475.
Agencies who want one login for a messy client mix: Platinum, maybe. Palladium only with a written list of the extra networks you will open every week.
Native / push buyers: Do not start here. Read Anstrex pricing or AdPlexity pricing.

PowerAdSpy vs other spy tools on price
| Tool | Entry paid seat | Yearly entry | What you are buying |
|---|---|---|---|
| PowerAdSpy Basic | $69/mo | $331/yr | Facebook + Instagram, 1 brand |
| Tyver Pro | $79/mo | $569/yr | Meta desk, 30,000 views, free plan to test |
| AdSpy | $149/mo | No cheaper yearly SKU | Deep Meta archive, one plan |
| AdPlexity Social | $99/mo | $79/mo billed yearly | Meta for affiliates, landers and offers |
PowerAdSpy only wins the price war when you commit a year on Basic. Month to month, Tyver is the cleaner Meta seat, and it has a free plan so you can check the index before you pay.
What I liked about PowerAdSpy pricing
- Yearly Basic at $331 is a fair Facebook + Instagram invoice if you will log in.
- The $1 trial is cheap enough to be honest. Most spies make you take a demo call.
- You can start on two Meta networks without buying TikTok you will not use.
What could be better
- The 1-brand cap on Basic is stingy. I said it already. It is still the problem.
- Six-tier blog posts (including older copy on this site) trained people to buy plans the vendor no longer sells.
- Palladium yearly is a lot of money for niche coverage. The page should say that in plain English.

Is PowerAdSpy cheaper than Tyver?
Only on Basic yearly. Tyver Pro is $79/mo or about $47/mo annual, with a free plan. PowerAdSpy monthly Basic at $69 is not cheaper. Yearly Basic is.
Which PowerAdSpy plan includes Instagram?
Basic already includes Instagram. You do not need Standard just to see IG creatives. You need Standard for Pinterest, GDN, and more than one brand.
Why would I pay for Palladium?
Only if you need one login across 11 networks and 30 brands. TikTok, LinkedIn, Quora, and Reddit are niche coverage. Buy a specialist spy if any one of those is the actual job.
Can I switch PowerAdSpy plans later?
Yes. Upgrades are immediate. Downgrades wait for the next billing cycle. You keep access until the current period ends. There is no long-term lock beyond the yearly invoice you already paid.
Is PowerAdSpy worth the price?
Yes on Basic yearly if Facebook and Instagram are how you buy traffic. No if you needed native landers, TikTok Shop products, or a modern Meta desk with a free plan. Tyver Free still exists. Anstrex still exists. Do not pay Palladium to feel complete.
The monthly ladder looks cheap at $69 until you sit next to Tyver Pro at $79 with a fuller Meta desk and no one-brand cap. Yearly Basic at $331 is the only PowerAdSpy invoice I would defend to a friend.
Final thoughts
I would pay for PowerAdSpy on Basic yearly if Facebook and Instagram are how I buy traffic. I would not pay Palladium to feel complete. Count your brands. Count your networks. Then pick the smallest plan that does not block a search you run every week.
