Reddit Ads MCP server
by camlowe
Lets your AI read your Reddit ad campaigns and reports, and make changes like pausing or budget edits when you allow it.
This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to your Reddit Ads account. Once it is set up, you can ask your AI questions about your campaigns and, if you choose, have it make changes like pausing an ad or adjusting a budget. It is handy for anyone who runs Reddit ads and wants to skip clicking around the dashboard.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app or service. This one connects your AI to Reddit Ads, so it can look up your campaigns, ad groups, ads, and performance numbers, and make changes there when you ask. You stay in charge: at first it can only read, and you have to turn on changes yourself.
What this MCP server does
You ask your AI something about your Reddit ads, like how a campaign did last week. Your AI uses this helper, which talks to Reddit's Ads system using your account login. Reddit sends back the numbers or the list of campaigns, and the helper passes them to your AI. Your AI then explains it to you in plain words in the chat. If you turn on changes, the same path lets it pause an ad, rename something, or adjust a budget.
Click to zoomWhat you can do with it
- List your Reddit ad accounts and give you an overview of one
- Show your campaigns, ad groups, and ads, filtered by active, paused, or archived
- Pull performance reports for a date range, by campaign or by ad
- Compare two time periods or two ads side by side
- Search for subreddits, interest categories, and locations you can target
- Pause or rename campaigns, ad groups, and ads
- Create new campaigns, ad groups, and ads (they start paused)
- Copy ads into another ad group, with an option to rewrite tracking links
Try asking your AI
- “Give me an overview of my Reddit ad account.”
- “Show the last 7 days of performance by campaign.”
- “Which of my ad groups are currently active?”
- “Pause the ad group called Spring Test.”
- “Compare this week to last week for my main campaign.”
What it gives back to you
You get answers in the chat: lists of campaigns or ads, tables of numbers like impressions, clicks, and spend, and short summaries your AI writes from that data. When it makes a change, it tells you what it did, and you can check the result in your Reddit Ads dashboard. Reports come back as numbers and text, not as files.
Before you start
What you need
- A Reddit Ads account with business-admin access
- Node.js 20 or newer on your computer
- An MCP client like Claude Code or Claude Desktop
- A Reddit app you register yourself to get a client ID and client secret (the setup helper walks you through it)
Good to know
Once you turn on writes, this can change live ads and budgets and affect real ad spend, so review every change it makes and keep your Reddit credentials safe.
Install it with your AI
Add Reddit Ads MCP server to your AI, no technical skills needed
You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.
Sign in to get the install prompt
Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check Reddit Ads MCP server, install it and connect it for them, step by step. You don't need any technical skills: you copy, paste and answer a few questions. Your connected AI can also find and install any of the 4,066 MCP servers here for you.
Who it's for
People who run Reddit ads, like marketers, small business owners, and media buyers, who want to check and adjust campaigns by talking to their AI instead of clicking through the dashboard.
