Run Google Ads from Codex.

1. 01Which search terms spent money last month and never converted?
2. 02Show me campaign performance for the last 30 days against the 30 before it.
3. 03Which keywords have a CPA above $80, and what would pausing them save?
4. 04Build a Search campaign for our spring offer, paused, with a $40 daily budget.
5. 05Add the search terms with no conversions as exact-match negatives.
6. 06Why did conversions drop last week, and which campaign, device or country accounts for it?

Questions are reads: free on every plan, and they change nothing. A request to build or change something comes back as a proposal, and nothing reaches Google Ads until you approve it.

• 01

  Find the spend that never converts

  Adako lists every search term with no conversions that spent at least a threshold (by default the cost of 10 average clicks in the account, or a figure you set), totals the waste, and proposes a negative keyword for each with a match type and the reason. The analysis is a read, so it is free on every plan; the negatives are added only after you approve them.

• 02

  Read performance at every level

  Campaign, ad group, ad and keyword, with the previous period beside it. Search terms, quality signals, geo, hourly and device breakdowns. When a number moves, Adako splits the change by campaign, device, network, country and search term, and ranks the segments by how much of it each one accounts for.

• 03

  Launch Search and Performance Max campaigns, paused

  Adako resolves locations, languages and audiences to Google ids before anything is written, validates the draft against the campaign spec, and creates the campaign PAUSED. You look at it in the Google Ads interface and turn it on yourself.

• 04

  Manage budgets, bids, keywords and assets

  Daily budgets, bid strategies, ad schedules, device modifiers, assets and extensions, keyword and negative lists, labels. Every change is a proposal with a field-level diff, executed exactly once and read back from Google afterwards.

• 05

  Watch the account daily

  Rules run once a day against Adako’s synced copy of the account: CPA above a ceiling, ROAS below a target, spend rising faster than its baseline, a campaign that stopped serving. They email you, and a rule with an action proposes the pause or the budget cut. Monitors are included from the Pro plan.

• Support by email

  Write to support@adako.ai with any question about your account, a proposal or a bill.

• Listed in the MCP Registry

  Published in the official MCP Registry as ai.adako/ads.

• Public repository

  The skills, client configs, installers and registry entry are open at github.com/ruslan2027/adako-mcp. The server itself is hosted.

• Official APIs only

  Adako reaches Google Ads through the official Google Ads API, with your own OAuth sign-in. It never drives the web interface.

• Tokens stay with Adako

  Platform tokens are stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM). They are never sent to your assistant and never written to a log.

How do I add Adako to Codex?

Run codex mcp add adako --url with the Adako MCP URL, then codex mcp login adako, and approve the sign-in in your browser. Start a new Codex session, and connect Google Ads on the Adako Accounts page.

Can Codex work across several Google Ads accounts?

Reads, yes. One call runs across the accounts you have switched on in Adako, up to 20 at a time, and groups the results per account in each one’s currency. Writes stay one account at a time: every change is its own proposal, naming one object in one account.

Can an AI agent create Google Ads campaigns?

Yes. With Adako connected, your assistant can build a Search or Performance Max campaign end to end: keywords, ad groups, responsive search ads, locations, budget and bid strategy. It is created PAUSED, so nothing spends until you open Google Ads and turn it on. The research and validation steps are free reads; the create itself costs one task.

Is it safe to let an AI agent change my Google Ads account?

Every change is a proposal first: a summary, a field-level diff of the exact fields that move, and the expected impact. Nothing reaches Google until you approve it, it then runs exactly once, and Adako reads the object back so you see what Google actually stored. Reads change nothing and run immediately.

How does Adako find wasted spend in Google Ads?

It pulls the search terms report for the period you name, keeps the terms with no conversions that spent at least a threshold (by default the cost of 10 average clicks in your account), totals that spend, and proposes a negative keyword for each with a match type and a reason. The whole audit is a read, so it costs nothing on any plan.

Which Google Ads campaign types does Adako support?

It reads every campaign type in the account, including Display and Shopping. It creates Search and Performance Max campaigns, both paused. For a type it cannot create, it says so rather than guessing.

Does Adako use the official Google Ads API?

Yes. Adako talks to the official Google Ads API with your own OAuth grant, paced within Google’s limits. It never automates the Google Ads web interface, and you can disconnect the platform on the Accounts page at any time.
