Ad Length Planner

Choose a platform and objective to explore illustrative duration ranges and ideas for your next creative test.

Use these editorial planning ranges to scope alternative cuts before production. They are hypotheses for testing, not measured optimal lengths or current platform limits.

Keep the message, audience and offer comparable when testing duration. Record campaign results separately from model diagnostics.

Check the current specifications for your exact placement in the ad platform before exporting. This planner does not validate upload eligibility.

How It Works

1

Pick platform

Select your target platform from the dropdown.

2

Choose objective

Select your campaign objective (awareness, conversion, etc.).

3

Get recommendation

Use an illustrative duration range to plan variants, then check current placement specifications.

Why It Matters

A duration plan helps the team agree what each cut needs to communicate. Actual effectiveness needs audience evidence; length alone does not predict CPM, CTR or retention.
