Original: Stop Browsing Dashboards: Using MCP to Turn AI Agents into Google Ads Managers
Short summary
An exploration of using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to give AI agents read and write access to Google Ads, enabling automated campaign management decisions. The author describes a workflow where an agent can check ROAS, identify underperforming campaigns, and pause them autonomously. The post also covers the infrastructure requirements (OAuth, developer token, customer ID) and safety considerations for giving LLMs write-access to ad spend.
