DPro Lite was initially released for iOS in May 2026. With the addition of the Android version, the app now supports both iOS and Android, making it accessible to all smartphone users. This enables more marketers and advertising operators to research competitor ads during spare moments—such as while commuting or right before client meetings—regardless of their device.

The app is free to download and allows users to cross-check advertising creatives from major social media and video advertising platforms—including TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and X—directly from a single smartphone.

[Development Background] — Instant Access to Competitor Ads, Right When You Need Them

Historically, ad creative research has largely relied on PCs and web browsers. However, marketers and advertising operators often gather information outside their desks.

1. "I can't check ads without a PC"

There are many situations—such as during commutes, business trips, or just before meetings—where users need to quickly check a competitor's ad but don't have access to a PC. There was a clear demand for a convenient, smartphone-based solution.

2. Cross-platform research is fragmented and inefficient

Users often need to check multiple platforms—TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, X—navigating between different apps and websites, which is inefficient. There was a strong need to consolidate all research into a single interface.

3. No way to "save" or "track" ads of interest

Users wanted to revisit or continuously monitor ads they偶然 come across. There was demand for a "bookmark-like" functionality that could be fully managed on a smartphone.

DPro Lite was developed as the official app for Video Ad Analytics Pro to address these challenges. With the Android release following the iOS version, its value is now available to all smartphone users.

Three Key Benefits

Benefit 1: Research ads anytime, anywhere

No need to open a PC—users can check ad creatives directly on their smartphones. Previously unused moments—such as during train rides, before meetings, or while waiting outdoors—can now be used for competitor analysis and trend monitoring.

Benefit 2: Cross-platform research in one app

Users with a Video Ad Analytics Pro subscription can view ad creatives across all supported platforms—including TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter)—within a single app, without switching between platforms. This makes it easier to compare ad strategies and messaging across different media side by side.

Benefit 3: Save and track ads of interest

The bookmark feature allows users to save ad creatives and review them later. Even non-subscribers to Video Ad Analytics Pro can use the viewing and tracking features for ads they personally share via the app, building their own personalized "ad reference library."

Recommended for:

- Advertising operators

- Marketers

- SNS operators

- Creators

- Designers

- Business owners who regularly monitor competitor ads and top-performing messaging

With DPro Lite, users can efficiently conduct daily ad research, analyze competitor advertising strategies, and gain creative inspiration.

Future Developments

KASHIKA aims to make ad research a routine activity for more marketing professionals through DPro Lite. Going forward, the company will improve search functionality, viewing experience, and save/share features based on user feedback.

To date, KASHIKA has developed a range of tools supporting the entire ad creative lifecycle—from research and creation to compliance—including the ad analytics SaaS "Video Ad Analytics Pro," AI creative generation "Pro AI," AI tool integration "DPro MCP," the free mobile app "DPro Lite," and AI-powered Pharmaceutical Affairs Law compliance checks. DPro Lite serves as the mobile gateway to these advertising data resources. KASHIKA will accelerate its evolution into a platform that supports ad creation and marketing decision-making more broadly and seamlessly in daily workflows.

CEO Statement

"DPro Lite is an app designed to integrate ad research more naturally into everyday life. Winning ad creative patterns aren't found only at your desk—they can emerge during commutes, before meetings, or in fleeting moments of curiosity. Through Video Ad Analytics Pro, KASHIKA has long supported creative optimization using ad data. With DPro Lite, we aim to lower the barrier to entry and make this capability accessible to even more users."
