OpenAI Ads MCP: ChatGPT Ads campaigns and insights in your AI app

Connect the OpenAI Ads MCP server to your AI app

1. 1Click Connect OpenAI Ads by Trakkr free. There's no sign-in, so its tools are ready at once.
2. 2Most of the 13 tools read campaigns, ad groups, ads and audiences. `manage_conversions` changes conversion pixels, API keys and event settings, so switch it off if a person should handle those.
3. 3Add ContextGate to your AI app as a connector or MCP server. The steps for each app are on the Works with page.

Ad reporting from Claude or Cursor

• List campaigns, ad groups and ads with `list_campaigns`, `list_ad_groups` and `list_ads`.
• Pull performance with `get_insights`, split by product, country or device over a time range.
• Find geo target ids for campaign targeting with `search_geo`.
• Draft context hints for an ad group from product, audience, intent and keywords with `draft_context_hints`.

This is Trakkr's open-source OpenAI Ads MCP server.

Keep your ad account's settings safe

• Switch off `manage_conversions` and your AI app can't change pixels, keys or event settings.
• Policies check every call, so an API key pasted into a prompt can be blocked.
• Activity records every call to the ad account, reads and changes alike.
