Meta adds Instagram Live as a conversion ad placement
Matias Axel Ramayo has flagged that Meta has added Instagram Live as a new conversion ad placement. Advertisers can promote an Instagram Live that's currently running or scheduled for the future, with a simple setup in the campaign placement flow.

What changed
The format positions live video as a human-centric counterweight to the saturation of AI-generated content.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means brands running Instagram Live content as part of their organic strategy can now amplify those streams through paid placement. Particularly relevant for creator-led brands, product launches, and event-driven activations where the live moment is the primary conversion trigger.
