An ad built to look like an organic post in the feed it appears in — low ad-vibe, native framing, no obvious design system.
When to use it
Cold traffic on Meta and TikTok, where anything that reads as an ad gets scrolled past reflexively. It is the format that buys you the first second.
The thing to get right
It still has to be disclosed as an ad by the platform, and it should not misrepresent what it is. Native means designed like a post, not disguised as someone else's.
The format at a glance
- Output — a still image ad.
- Structure — a single frame, with the copy composited on top.
- Family — Image ads.
- Recipe id — native_post, which is what you name when you ask for it by hand or from an agent.
Is native the same as disguised?
No. Native means designed like a post rather than pretending to be someone else. The platform still labels it as an ad, and misrepresenting what it is fails the policy and the reader at the same time.
