Swipe File

Save ads you like to boards, reuse them as references, and share boards with a read-only link.

The Swipe File is where you keep ads worth learning from. Organize them into boards, such as "Winning hooks" or "UGC we like", then pull them into new batches as references or hand them to Spark.

Where to find it

Open Swipe File in the sidebar. You can search boards and sort them by date or name.

Create a board

  1. 1
    Click the New board tile.
  2. 2
    Enter a Name and an optional description.
  3. 3
    Click Create board.

You can also create a board while saving an ad.

Save an ad

  1. 1
    Click the bookmark on any ad card, or Save to Swipe File in an ad's details.
  2. 2
    Tick the boards you want. Type a new name to create a board on the spot.

The ad is saved as soon as you tick a board. An ad must be on at least one board, so unticking every board removes it from your Swipe File.

Use saved ads

Open a board to see its ads on a zoomable canvas. Click an ad, then open Actions:

  • Add to batch collects several ads, up to 10.
  • Use in Spark starts a Spark chat with the ad attached.
  • Use in editor starts a new batch with the ad as a reference.

You can also pick saved ads while creating a batch. On the Select Reference Images step, click Browse Swipe File.

To take an ad off a board, click it and choose Remove.

Share a board

  1. 1
    Open the board and click Share.
  2. 2
    Optionally turn on Password protect and set a password.
  3. 3
    Click Create share link and copy the Public link.

Anyone with the link sees a read-only view of the board. Click Disable share to turn the link off for everyone.

Delete a board

Open the board card's menu and click Delete. Ads that only lived on that board are removed from your Swipe File. This can't be undone.
