How does Adwave create ads for my campaign?

Enter your campaign website URL or social media profile. Adwave's AI pulls your photo, platform positions, endorsements, and branding to build a professional 30-second TV spot plus matching image ads and social video. You can customize the script, music, images, and call to action. The whole process takes about two minutes.

Where will my campaign ads be shown?

Your ads run on Facebook, Instagram, Google (YouTube and Search), Reddit, TikTok, web, mobile, and television, including 100+ premium channels such as Hulu, Peacock, Paramount+, Tubi, ESPN, and local programming. You choose the geographic area, so you can target only the ZIP codes or districts where your voters live. No wasted spend outside your race.

Can I target specific precincts or voter demographics?

You can target by ZIP code, city, radius, or metro area. This lets you focus your budget on the exact areas that matter for your race, whether that's a single ward, a school district boundary, or an entire city. You can also adjust your targeting anytime as your campaign strategy evolves.

What's the minimum budget to get started?

Daily budgets start at $30/day from a prepaid wallet. You can review recommended ads without a card. New accounts get $60 starter credit (activates with a deposit within 14 days). There are no subscriptions, no contracts, and no hidden fees. Pause anytime and charges stop.

Are there any restrictions on political advertising?

Adwave supports political advertising and follows all applicable regulations for political ads on TV platforms. Your ad will include the required paid-for-by disclosures. You're responsible for making sure your ad content complies with local and state campaign advertising laws.

How quickly can I get my ad on the air?

You can have a finished TV commercial in about two minutes. Once approved, your ad can be live on TV platforms within 24 hours. That speed matters in local races where the window between filing and election day is short and every day of visibility counts.

A professional campaign on every screen

Voters have limited information in local races. A professional ad on the channels they watch every night, in their feeds, and on the searches they run signals your campaign is organized and credible. Daily budgets from $30/day cost less than a single round of printed yard signs, and you spend only in the ZIP codes where your voters live.

more likely to search for your brand after seeing your TV spot: 3x
more consumer trust in TV ads than social ads, trust your search and social ads inherit: 4x
higher brand recall with TV in the mix than digital alone: 60%
