Beat Andromeda with creative diversity Prepare your ads for
Meta’s Andromeda system.

Meta’s Andromeda groups look-alike ads into a single creative entity before the auction. Recharm helps you build ads that are visually and thematically distinct, from footage you already own.

Visual diversity

Find footage you forgot you had.

Recharm makes the whole library browsable by scene, so B-roll, lifestyle clips and product shots that sat buried in folders become new ways to open, show and close an ad.

Persona diversity

Different faces, different audiences.

Face-based tagging groups every clip by the person in it. See all 86 creators in the library and cast each ad for a different audience instead of reusing the same two.

Thematic diversity

New angles, not new headlines.

Recharm tags every clip with the angle it sells and the problem it solves, so strategists can explore a new message with the footage to back it up.

  • Search clips by hook, problem, persona or angle.
  • Build a concept around an angle you’ve never run.
  • Change the story, not just the text overlay.

Creative similarity score

Measure diversity before you launch.

Meta measures similarity internally but doesn’t show it to advertisers. Recharm’s similarity score makes it visible: check how alike your static creatives are and catch duplicates before they split your budget.

Frequently asked questions

What is Meta’s Andromeda system?

Andromeda is the retrieval system Meta uses to decide which ads are eligible to enter the auction. Instead of evaluating every ad individually, it first retrieves a smaller set of candidates and then ranks them. Many ads never reach the auction if they aren’t considered relevant or distinct enough.

Why does creative similarity matter under Andromeda?

Andromeda groups visually and thematically similar ads into the same creative entity. If several ads look nearly identical, they can be treated as one concept, so launching dozens of small variations doesn’t increase your chances of entering the auction.

Why is creative diversity now more important than creative volume?

In older ad systems, launching many variations of a winner raised the odds of performance. Under Andromeda, similar creatives are grouped together, so advertisers need to test different concepts, personas and visual styles, not minor tweaks of the same ad.

How can teams create more creative diversity in their ads?

Test different messaging angles, personas and visual styles instead of repeating one ad with small changes. New concepts and storytelling approaches make ads look distinct and improve their chances of being retrieved.

How does Recharm help teams adapt to Andromeda?

Recharm makes your footage searchable by scene, creator, persona, problem, hook and angle, so strategists can build genuinely different ads instead of repeating the same footage across campaigns.

How does Recharm’s creative similarity score help advertisers?

Meta measures creative similarity internally but doesn’t show it to advertisers. Recharm’s free Creative Similarity Scanner measures how visually similar your static creatives are, so you can catch duplicates and improve diversity before launch.

Can existing footage still produce diverse ads?

Yes. Most teams have far more unused footage than they realize. Once the library is searchable by scene, creator and concept, strategists can combine clips in new ways and produce distinct ads without a new shoot every time.
