Connect Google Ads to ChatGPT
ChatGPT can work with your Google Ads accounts through MCP, the open standard for connecting AI assistants to real tools. Adplane is a hosted Google Ads MCP server that works through the Google account you already use for Google Ads. Install it from the ChatGPT plugin directory and ask about your campaigns in plain language.
Setting it up
- Go to adplane.ai and sign in with the Google account you already use for Google Ads. Every Google Ads account you can access is connected automatically.
- In ChatGPT, open adplane in the plugin directory and click Install plugin. Connectors are available on plans that support them.
- ChatGPT sends you through a one time approval where you sign in to Adplane. After that the tools are available in your conversations.
Checking it works
Ask:
List my Google Ads accounts.
You should get your accounts back with IDs, names, and currencies. From there, reporting and campaign management both work the same way they do in Claude: ask questions, get answers from live data, and describe changes you want made.
Which search terms cost me the most without converting last month?
Create a search campaign for our spring sale, 40 dollars a day, targeting Canada.
What keeps your spend safe
The safety model does not depend on which assistant you use, because it is enforced by the server:
- Created paused, always. Nothing Adplane creates can serve or spend until you explicitly turn it on.
- One deliberate path to spending. A single update tool is the one way to enable anything.
- No bulk operations, guarded delete. Anything that has spent, or whose spend cannot be confirmed, is removed only after you see what Adplane found and confirm.
- Every change read back. Adplane reports what Google actually stored, not what was requested.
The full walkthrough, including example prompts for reporting and campaign building, is in the docs.
Frequently asked questions
Does ChatGPT support Google Ads?
Not natively, but ChatGPT can use connectors. Adplane is a hosted Google Ads MCP server listed in the ChatGPT plugin directory: install it from the listing, sign in with Google, and ChatGPT can read your reporting data and, when you ask, build and change campaigns.
What do I need to get started?
The Google account you already use for Google Ads. You sign in with it and approve Adplane's access to Google Ads, and every account that login can reach is connected. Adplane then works only through your login, on your behalf. There is nothing to install or configure.
Can ChatGPT spend my budget?
Nothing spends without you. Everything Adplane creates starts paused, a single update tool is the one path to enabling anything, and anything that has spent, or whose spend cannot be confirmed, is deleted only after you see what Adplane found and confirm. Every change is read back from Google before it is reported as done.
Does the same connector work in Claude?
Yes. Claude connects in one click from the Claude connector directory. Cursor, Claude Code, and other MCP clients with OAuth support add the same server as a custom connector with the URL https://mcp.adplane.ai.
