48 energy drink brands have 27,692 ads in the Meta Ad Library between them, and 12,248 of those were running when we read it on October 5, 2026. Below is a page of creative from each, what formats carry the category, and how long the ads that work stay up.
The category was won by founders who are the creative, which is why so much of the spend here goes to a person talking to a phone rather than to anything a studio made.
The library count is everything a brand has published on Meta. The active count is what was delivering at the read. The ratio between them is the account’s posture: a large library with a small active share is a brand cycling hard, and one where nearly everything is live is running a small curated set.
