The safe X Ads MCP server
For X Ads (formerly Twitter Ads), with drafts & safeguards
Let your agent promote your winning posts on X (formerly Twitter), reach look-alikes of your competitors' followers, cut wasted spend, and pull your reports. Every change lands as a draft you approve before X sees it.

"My agent analyzed my account using Adkit, found what to optimize, and drafted all the changes, I only had to click 'Approve'. The first 30 minutes already saved me 8 hours of work."
The X Ads Manager makes simple work take an hour
- Dig through analytics to figure out which posts are worth promoting
- Rebuild the same handle-targeting list in the Ads Manager, campaign after campaign
- Export CSVs and build the same report every week
- ...or use other MCPs that have no guardrails and break your account
- 1. Tell your agent what you wantOne prompt, plain English. "Launch this campaign" or "cut the spend that isn't working".
- 2. Review the draftEvery campaign, creative, and budget change lands in AdKit as a draft. Inspect it before X sees a thing.
- 3. Publish when readyApprove and the draft ships to X Ads. Your live campaigns stay frozen until you sign off.
"AdKit MCP has been extremely useful. I've been using my AI agent for a month now and last month I wanted to run an ad, I had to manually copy-paste csv, fix all the settings, spend hours. AdKit allows me to create and iterate on ads in a single prompt"
What you can do with your agent
ClaudeFind my best post from the last 7 days and promote it. $50/day.
Your CPA thread hit 48k impressions. Drafted a $50/day promotion for your approval.
[ Promote Posts ]
Put budget behind your winning posts
The playbook X marketers swear by: don't write ads from scratch, promote the posts that already earned engagement. Your agent spots the winners and drafts the promotion, so your best content does the selling.

ClaudeBuild a campaign targeting look-alikes of the followers of @stripe, @paddle, and 20 similar accounts
Drafted: follower look-alike targeting across 22 handles, ready for your creatives.
[ Targeting ]
Reach people like your competitors' followers
X's follower look-alike targeting reaches people similar to the followers of accounts in your niche. Name the accounts and your agent builds the targeting, no rebuilding it by hand in the Ads Manager.
ClaudeTurn this image into X ad creative variants
Done! 3 creative variants ready for review.
[ Ads Creation ]
Create X ad creatives, fast
X campaigns need a steady supply of fresh creatives: the common advice is 5-10 variants, refreshed weekly. Hand your agent an image and it generates the variants, each landing as a draft for your approval.
ClaudePause any campaign over $80 CPA, and relaunch 'Retargeting Q3', it stopped delivering yesterday.
Two moves drafted for approval:
Pause 'Prospecting: Broad' campaign
CPA hit $94, above your $80 cap
Relaunch 'Retargeting Q3' campaign
Daily budget exhausted, reset and resume delivery
[ Budget Control ]
Keep your ad spend under control
X campaigns can overspend or stop delivering without warning. Your agent watches both and drafts the pause or the relaunch for your approval.
"Now I can use my AI agent for monitoring competitors, creating static ads, publishing them, and analyzing their performance. This has 10x'd my capabilities to iterate on ads."

"Just this morning I used the MCP with Claude and basically I didn't even need to open up the app. It just did everything directly from Claude, which is a super nice unlock if you're into automation."
"Why not just use X's official MCP?"
X has its own Ads MCP. X runs it, and your agent can use it to pull reports and create campaigns, line items, and ads. New campaigns start paused, so nothing spends until you switch it on. If you only run X ads and have a developer on hand, it's a fine place to start.
The catch: setting it up is a developer job. You create an app in the X Developer Console, turn on Ads API access, and connect it with your own OAuth login. And it only covers X, so Meta, Google, or LinkedIn each need their own setup.
There are also free, open-source X Ads MCP servers. You host them yourself, and every change they make goes straight to your live account. Agents send bad requests, trip validation errors, and set the wrong budget. Against a live account, you pay for every one of those mistakes.
Your X ad account represents real spend, tracked conversions, and campaign history. You probably want something between your agent and all of that.
AdKit sits between your agent and X.
Your agent talks to AdKit. AdKit talks to X. Every change becomes a draft first, including edits to campaigns that are already running, and you review it before it goes live. The same connection also runs your Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, Reddit, Microsoft, Pinterest, and ChatGPT Ads accounts. And it installs in one click in Claude and ChatGPT, with no developer app to set up.
AdKit was engineered specifically for AI agents. It checks every request, catches mistakes, and keeps your agent inside the guardrails, so nothing sloppy ever reaches X.
"Other tools I found were just small proxies for ad platform APIs. One bad call and you could mess up a live campaign. What I like about AdKit is that everything goes through a draft first. I review before anything goes live. That "buffer" between your agent and Meta is what makes it safe to use."
AdKit vs X's official MCP vs X Ads Manager
  | X's official MCP | X Ads Manager | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who it's for | Brands and agencies running several ad accounts on several platforms. | Developers who only run X ads. | Anyone happy to do it all by hand. |
| Platforms | Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Reddit, Microsoft, Pinterest, and ChatGPT Ads from one connection. | X only. | Log into each ad manager separately. |
| Safety | Every change is a draft you approve, including edits to running campaigns. You control access per ad account: read-only, drafts, or full access. | New campaigns start paused until you switch them on. | You click the buttons, so mistakes are yours to catch. |
| Setup | One-click install in Claude and ChatGPT, or one URL anywhere else. You log in with OAuth: no access tokens, developer app, or config files. | Create an X developer app, turn on Ads API access, then connect with OAuth. | No setup needed. You already have your login. |
| Team access | Give each team member Admin, Write, or Read-only access, and only the projects they need. | No roles of its own. It acts with your X login's permissions. | Set access in X Ads Manager. |
| Reporting | Ask your agent how your campaigns are doing across all platforms. | X reports only. | Open X Ads Manager and check the dashboards yourself. |

A word from the founder
Hi there 👋 I'm Nico, the founder of AdKit 😄
Before building startups, I was a media buyer. I managed over $1,000,000 in Ads, sold two startups grown with ads, and helped 1,000+ makers learn Meta Ads through my online guides.
I love ads but... it involves a lot of repetitive, boring work 😩 And I hated every second of it. So I built AdKit to fix that.
To let me and other marketers focus on the fun parts: the strategy, the thinking, the creativity. And not have to waste my time clicking around in buggy interfaces.
It's the app I always dreamed of, and I hope you'll like it too 😀
You're probably wondering...
Every change is a draft by default. Your agent creates campaigns, ad groups, and ads in AdKit's dashboard. Nothing touches your X account until you approve it. Review everything before it goes live.
AdKit connects to X using the official Ads API. Built-in rate limiting, request validation, and error handling. Your agent never talks to X directly.
If you can type instructions to Claude or Cursor, you can manage ads. No code, no API keys to configure, no terminal commands required.
People like you love AdKit:
Founders & Solopreneurs
You're growing a product and don't have the budget for an agency. You want to run ads yourself without spending your week in Ad Managers UI.
Agencies & Media buyers
You run multiple ad accounts and want a way to manage them faster. 10 accounts = 10x the same work, and every hour wasted in ad managers is time you'll never get back.
Growth Marketers
You already do most of your work with AI agents. Ads should work the same way, not force you into a separate tool with its own learning curve.
Brand Managers
You need to easily keep track of what competitors are doing and get ideas. AdKit lets you track your competitors across platforms and search 1M+.
