If you already ask Claude to draft emails or summarize documents, the natural next step is asking it about your actual numbers: "which of my campaigns are wasting spend" or "what are my highest-converting keywords this month", without exporting a CSV first. FINTY now supports exactly that: a direct connection between your Google Ads account and Claude.
What this actually is
Claude supports custom connectors, external tools it can call directly from a normal chat, once you've connected one. FINTY runs a Google Ads connector your Claude account can add, so a question like "list my Google Ads accounts" or "show my Search campaigns by cost" gets answered with your real, live data, the same account you already manage in Google Ads, not a copy or an export.
Step-by-step: connecting Claude to Google Ads via FINTY
1. Connect Google Ads to FINTY first
In FINTY, go to Settings → Ads and click Connect Google Ads. You'll be sent to Google to approve access, then back to FINTY showing your account connected. This is the same real OAuth consent Google Ads itself uses, not a pasted API key.
2. Add FINTY as a custom connector in claude.ai
In claude.ai, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and enter https://finty.in/mcp as the URL.
3. Log in and approve
Claude redirects you to a FINTY consent screen. Log into your existing FINTY account if you aren't already, then approve the connection. This is the same founder login you already use for FINTY, not a separate credential to manage.
4. Ask Claude
That's it. The connector shows as connected. From any claude.ai chat, try something like "using the finty-ads connector, list my Google Ads accounts" or "what are my top campaigns by spend this month" to confirm it's working.
What you can ask Claude once it's connected
- List the Google Ads accounts and their details (currency, time zone, live vs. test).
- Search campaign performance: cost, clicks, conversions, cost-per-conversion, budget.
- Ad groups, individual ads, and negative keywords.
- Keyword research with real Google search-volume data.
- Any custom report via a direct Google Ads query, for anything the built-in tools don't cover.
Why this is read-only by default
A tool that can read your numbers and a tool that can spend your money are very different levels of trust, so FINTY keeps them separate on purpose. The Claude connection is scoped to reporting. It cannot pause a campaign, change a budget, or create anything, unless a founder has explicitly opted into a separate write-access setting, which asks for a distinct approval and is designed so nothing can go live without a human turning it on.
Everything else FINTY does with your Google Ads connection
The same connection also turns Google Ads Lead Form submissions into CRM leads automatically, see how FINTY handles leads from every channel in one pipeline, WhatsApp included. Every FINTY plan includes Google Ads reporting and lead capture; the Claude connector is free once you've connected your account. Start a 14-day free trial to try it on your own campaigns.
