Inspiration versus a scored verdict
A swipe file shows you examples; it does not tell you whether your execution of an idea is strong or where it falls down. Omniscia's Lens analyses your uploaded video or image creatives and returns a scored report across six weighted categories, grading each from Excellent at the top down to Critical, with the specific weaknesses named rather than implied.
That turns 'this feels off' into 'your Hook Variety is thin and your Format Mix is weak', which is something a brief can actually act on. The output is a verdict on your own work, not a gallery of someone else's.
Cluster risk and performance Foreplay doesn't model
Inspiration tools have no view of how your creatives behave together in a live account. Omniscia does: it flags Andromeda cluster risk, showing which of your ads will collapse into one auction slot, and ties creative scores back to real performance so you can see which scoring patterns actually correlate with results.
That is the structural difference. Foreplay helps you decide what to make; Omniscia helps you judge what you made, predict how it will deliver, and learn which of your scores matter, replacing a single-purpose swipe tool with a creative-intelligence layer.

frequently asked
- Is Omniscia a swipe file like Foreplay?
- No. Foreplay is built around collecting and tagging inspiration. Omniscia analyses and scores your own creatives across six weighted categories and flags how they'll cluster in delivery.
- What does Omniscia do that Foreplay doesn't?
- It grades your creatives from Excellent to Critical with named weaknesses, flags Andromeda cluster risk, and ties scores to real performance, things an inspiration library doesn't model.
- Is Omniscia more expensive than Foreplay?
- Omniscia's Starter plan is $99/mo, comparable to Foreplay's roughly $99, but it replaces several single-purpose tools rather than just the swipe-file one.
- Can I still use both?
- Yes. Many teams keep an inspiration library for ideation and use Omniscia to score, cluster-check and performance-tie the creatives they actually produce.
