Search, display and video ads on Google. Google's open-source Google Ads MCP server is read-only: an AI client can query account data with GAQL but can't change campaigns.
Google's developer guide describes an open-source MCP server that reads Google Ads data through GAQL queries. Its tools include search, resource metadata and a list of accessible customers. It runs locally (stdio) or over Streamable HTTP. source ↗

How Google Ads connects to each AI platform: native connector or MCP, API through code the agent writes, browser control, or file upload.
| Platform | MCP / connector | API (agent-written code) | Browser | Upload / export |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude (incl. Claude Code) | Not documented Google Ads has an official MCP server and Claude (incl. Claude Code) supports MCP, but Google Ads's docs don't name this pairing. Auth setup may differ. Google Ads MCP docs ↗Claude (incl. Claude Code) MCP docs ↗ | Not documented Claude (incl.

Confirmed is reserved for evidence of the specific connection route. The current named integrations include plugins, skills and CLIs, so a named platform alone does not confirm MCP or a native connector. Inferred means each side documents a relevant capability, but no document describes the pairing. Code execution still needs network and credential access; file handling still needs a compatible format and transfer direction. Not documented means the records do not establish the route. IonBin has not tested these pairings. Recorded Oct 18, 2026.
| Level | Status | Detail / source |
|---|---|---|
| Native connector / MCP | Yes | Official docs ↗ |
| API / CLI | Yes | Official docs ↗ — Google Ads API |
| Browser / manual | No | Browser access is recorded alongside a documented programmatic route. |
| File upload / import | Yes | Official docs ↗ — the API supports bulk mutate operations |
Recorded Oct 18, 2026. Setup and plan limits vary; check the vendor's docs. How levels are assigned.
An official MCP server is documented for this tool. These platforms separately document MCP client support: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Gemini (Google), Google Antigravity, Grok, Grok Bot, Lindy, LM Studio, Mistral Vibe, OpenAI Codex. This inventory does not establish compatible transport, authentication or actions for a pairing. Check the connection matrix and linked sources.
Automation hubs to assess for a custom API connection: Gumloop, Make, n8n, Zapier. Verify credentials, supported requests, limits and error handling; no configured integration is implied.
No long-form review yet. Verdict is based on research, not hands-on testing.
Ads on Facebook, Instagram and Meta's other apps. The Marketing API covers campaign creation, management and reporting, and the Conversions API sends server-side events. We found no official Meta MCP server.
Self-service connected TV advertising with campaign measurement and a reporting API. QuickFrame AI provides a separate self-service path to create video ads; an official MCP server remains unverified.
