Perplexity

Analyze ad spend inside Claude Desktop

The `get_campaign_performance` tool pulls exact spend and conversion numbers from your Basis account directly into your chat window. Instead of exporting CSVs from the DSP, you just ask your agent to pull yesterday's metrics. Claude grabs the raw data and builds the summary tables you need. You compare client budgets against actuals in seconds using `get_tactic_performance` alongside your regular prompts.

Audit active creatives and line items

Running the `list_ads` tool gives your agent a complete view of every creative running across your accounts. It checks naming conventions and flags formatting errors before you spend money on broken assets. When a stakeholder asks what's currently live, you don't need to hunt through the UI. You fire `list_tactics` and let the agent generate a plain-text breakdown of active line items instantly.

Map brand hierarchies instantly

Firing `list_brands` maps out your entire advertiser structure without touching the Basis interface. This MCP server lets your agent see exactly which clients own which campaigns. If a specific brand needs an audit, `get_campaign` fetches the exact targeting parameters and flight dates. Your client formats that data into whatever reporting template your agency requires.

Common questions about Basis Technologies MCP in Claude Desktop

Paste your Vinkius endpoint URL into the Custom Connectors section under Settings in Claude Web. If you prefer the local app, add the command to your claude_desktop_config.json file. The tools appear immediately after you save.

Yes. The agent pulls live numbers via get_campaign_performance and formats them into your specific template. You skip the manual export process entirely.

No. This server focuses entirely on reading data. Tools like get_tactic and get_ad only fetch configuration and performance metrics.

Dashboards force you to click through multiple screens to answer simple questions. Asking an agent to run list_clients and summarize their active campaigns takes one sentence.

Your campaign metrics and ad creative metadata stay isolated within the Vinkius V8 sandbox. The system destroys the execution environment the moment your query finishes. Authentication requires a single endpoint token, keeping your core DSP credentials out of the chat client entirely.
