Orbiads GAM MCP - Google Ad Manager for AI Agents¶

Hosted MCP server with 200+ tools for Google Ad Manager. Manage campaigns, line items, creatives, inventory, and reporting from any MCP-compatible AI agent. OAuth on-behalf-of-user - your agent acts as you with the permissions you grant.

What It Does for Operators¶

Campaign Management - Create, update, pause, and archive GAM campaigns from natural language
Line Items - Full line item lifecycle: create, target, traffic, and optimize
Creatives - Upload and manage image, video, HTML5, and native ad creatives
Interactive Reporting - Ask questions about performance in natural language, get formatted reports
Inventory Exploration - Search ad units, placements, and inventory availability
Ad-Ops Compliance - Audit campaigns against best practices (frequency caps, competitive exclusions, viewability thresholds)
Forecast - Delivery forecasts, inventory availability predictions

Installation¶

This is a hosted MCP server - no local installation required. Connect via Streamable HTTP:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbiads-gam": {
      "url": "https://api.orbiads.com/mcp/gam",
      "transport": "streamable-http"
    }
  }
}

First-time connection opens a browser for Google OAuth - authorize once, and the agent reuses credentials for future sessions.

Media Buyers - Pull inventory availability data directly into AI research workflows. Compare CPMs across placements without manual exports.
Compliance Auditors - Run automated audits against GAM setups. Flag missing frequency caps, broken competitive exclusions, and below-threshold viewability.
Reporting Automation - "Send me a report of top-performing line items by revenue, last 7 days" - get formatted reports without building GAM queries.

CorpusIQ Angle¶

First Google Ad Manager MCP server - fills a gap in the marketing/adtech MCP ecosystem. Operators running ad operations alongside their business can now manage GAM from AI agents. Complementary to CorpusIQ's analytics connectors - GAM performance data alongside GA4, Stripe, and QuickBooks in one AI conversation.

Limitations¶

Hosted only - no self-hosted option (vendor dependency)
OAuth requires a Google Ad Manager account with appropriate permissions
New project (3⭐). API stability and uptime not guaranteed.
GAM API v202602 - requires up-to-date GAM network
