Stop wasting budget with instant campaign control

When a campaign burns through cash without converting, you need to act immediately. This MCP Server lets you issue commands to pause underperforming ads directly from your desktop chat interface. Your agent invokes `pause_campaign` or `enable_campaign` on the spot, bypassing the sluggish Campaign Manager web UI. You can quickly verify which campaigns are active by running `list_campaigns` to audit your setup. Claude Desktop executes these commands locally, giving you a fast, secure way to control your ad accounts without leaving your workspace.

Pull live B2B metrics into this Claude Desktop MCP Server

Getting fresh performance numbers usually requires exporting CSVs and manual cleanup. This integration lets your agent fetch raw data using `get_account_analytics` and `get_campaign_analytics` to analyze your actual return on ad spend. You get clean, structured data back instantly. Claude Desktop can then parse these numbers, calculate your cost per acquisition, and write a summary report for your team without any manual data entry.

Audit active creatives and campaign groups

Managing multiple target audiences means keeping track of dozens of variations. Use `list_creatives` to see exactly what copy and images are running, and match them against your structural setup with `list_campaign_groups`. Your agent cross-references these assets against your performance goals. It highlights which creatives are actually driving business results and which ones should be swapped out.
