Meta is consolidating its automated ad products into the Meta Advantage suite. The suite will consist of two types of Advantage products:

  • Advantage: This lets you automate a specific part of a manual campaign.
  • Advantage+: This lets you automate a campaign from beginning to end or part of a manual campaign (e.g., placements or creative).

Here’s what Meta announced is changing: 

  • Lookalike Expansion becomes Advantage Lookalike. This tool helps advertisers reach a broader audience than what is defined in their Lookalike audience. 
  • Detailed Targeting Expansion becomes Advantage Detailed Targeting. This tool finds additional audiences based on the advertiser’s targeting preferences (e.g., interests).
  • Automated App Ads become Advantage+ App Campaigns. This tool uses real-time data to adjust ads across audience, placement and creative.
  • Automatic Placements become Advantage+ Placements. This tool decides where your ad will show on Meta (e.g., Facebook Feed, Instagram Stories, Reels), with the goal of delivering better results.
  • Dynamic Experiences becomes Advantage+ Creative. This tool creates multiple variations of an ad using a single image or video.
  • Coming soon: Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns. Currently known as Automated Shopping Ads, this is in beta testing.
