# Getting started with Peachblue

> Connect an ad platform, let the sync run, and get your first creative analysis. What happens in your first hour with Peachblue.

Canonical: https://peachblue.io/docs/getting-started

Peachblue connects to your ad accounts, syncs every creative with its performance data, and uses AI to analyze what works and why. Setup is three steps: connect a platform, let the first sync run, and open your first analysis. No code, no pixel, no developer required.

## Step 1: connect a platform

Go to Settings, open the Integrations tab, and click Connect on any platform you run: Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, or Amazon DSP. Each connection is an OAuth sign-in: you approve access in the platform's own window, then pick which ad accounts (or advertiser profiles) Peachblue should sync. Platform guides:

- [Connect Meta](/docs/connect-meta)
- [Connect TikTok](/docs/connect-tiktok)
- [Connect Google Ads](/docs/connect-google-ads)
- [Connect Amazon DSP](/docs/connect-amazon-dsp)

Platform availability depends on your plan: Meta and TikTok on every plan, Google Ads from Pro, Amazon DSP from Scale. See [pricing](/pricing) for the full matrix.

## Step 2: the first sync

After you select accounts, Peachblue backfills your recent performance history and mirrors your creative assets (images and videos) so analysis does not depend on expiring platform URLs. The first sync usually completes within minutes for a normal-sized account. After that, an automatic daily sync keeps everything current, and the Data Hub shows sync status, data freshness, and the next scheduled run at a glance.

## Step 3: your first insights

As creatives finish analysis, three places light up:

- **Creative Library** shows every ad and every unique creative, each with its [31-dimension analysis](/docs/creative-analysis) and [composite score](/docs/scoring).
- **Performance** ranks your creatives into tiers, from Top Performer to Underperformer, with recommendations on what to scale and what to kill.
- **Agent Peach** answers questions about your data in plain language: "what was my best hook style last month," "compare my top two videos," "where is my spend going." See [Agent Peach](/docs/agent-peach).

From there, Intelligence detects the patterns behind your winners, [Brand Intel](/docs/brand-intel) tracks what Reddit says about your brand, and Power and Agency plans add [client-ready reports and DSP pacing](/docs/reports-and-pacing).

## Credits, briefly

Every analyzed creative consumes credits: 5 for an image or text creative, 10 for a video. Credits reset monthly and each plan includes a monthly allowance. Details in [credits and billing](/docs/credits-and-billing).
