## What it is
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Cursor manage Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram) end to end — launching campaigns, uploading creatives, updating budgets, and analyzing performance via natural conversation. It is the Meta node of Pipeboard's five-platform MCP family, offered primarily as a hosted remote MCP with a free plan, with local installation available for technical users.

## Use cases
- manage facebook ads from claude
- launch instagram ad campaigns with an ai assistant
- pause underperforming ad sets and reallocate budgets via chat
- analyze meta ads campaign performance without dashboards
- upload creatives to meta ads through an mcp server
- connect chatgpt or cursor to facebook ads api
- manage multiple client ad accounts through one oauth flow

## When to choose
- you want to run Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram) operations through Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, or any MCP client without writing code
- you need write operations (create campaigns, update budgets, duplicate ads), not just reporting
- you want a hosted remote MCP with no developer token or self-hosting
- you plan to manage ads across multiple platforms and want a consistent toolset (Pipeboard family)
- you are an agency needing OAuth-based access to many client ad accounts

## When to avoid
- you need ad management for platforms outside Meta, Google, TikTok, Snap, or Reddit
- you require a fully self-hosted solution with no third-party hosted service involved
- your usage exceeds the free plan's weekly tool-execution limits and you cannot accept a paid subscription
- you need a permissively licensed codebase — the project uses BUSL-1.1 / source-available terms
- you only need read-only reporting and prefer a simpler dashboard or API client
