Opens on an AI-generated silver android woman, shows styled AI portraits of a couple with a dog, then a phone chat screen in Image mode, ending on an app store card
Transcripts: Whisper, first 60 seconds of each video, as heard (names can be misspelled). No speech means silent, music only or a slideshow; then the on-screen text is shown. Storylines are read by AI from the frames and the transcript.

Caveats
9
dissection.json was not present, so no ad creative dissection exists
Meta Ad Library was read logged-out by keyword: 0 ads found
Instagram was not collected
TikTok creator cards show likes, not views; counts are not comparable to own-account views
Only 15 own-account posts were dissected and 0 partner posts
Rank, revenue and download claims come from AIBY posts and third-party X accounts, not from...
Press pages and interview transcripts have no extracted text and no podcast transcripts exist
Reviews are a 500-review public RSS sample; Reddit has 2 threads
Channel shares are estimates and labelled so
Paid: every active ad found for the advertiser in the Meta Ad Library with start date and variant count as Meta publishes them; videos fetched for analysis only and deleted after frames, transcript and OCR were derived; one model read per creative into a fixed schema. Organic: public profile counts only. Creators count only when a caption tags, links or names the app (graded per creator). Founder statements quoted verbatim and checked by code. Estimates labelled and linked. Not affiliated with the app or its publisher.
