Google Ads Transparency Monitor MCP Server

An MCP server for the Mamba Labs Google Ads Transparency Monitor actor on Apify. Give it a company domain or an advertiser name. Each run reads Google's public Ads Transparency Center and returns one row per ad, with the format, first and last shown dates, a creative link, and the ad's page, plus a company summary row with Google's total ad count band.

What it does

List the Google ads a company runs. Give a company domain (for example stripe.com) or an advertiser name, or lists of either. You get one row per ad with the advertiser, ad ID, format (text, image, or video), first and last shown dates, a creative link, and the ad's Transparency Center page, plus one summary row per input that says whether the company runs Google ads, how many (Google's own count band, for example 8,000 to 9,000), and in which formats. Rows with no ads, blocked requests, or a changed Google page come back free with a row_status saying so.

All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.

Quick start

You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mamba-google-ads-transparency-monitor": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@mambalabsdev/mcp-google-ads-transparency-monitor"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart the client. The get_google_ads tool appears.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18 or newer.
• An Apify API token from console.apify.com/account/integrations, set as APIFY_TOKEN. The server lists its tool without a token; a call needs one.

Example prompts

• "Does notion.so run Google ads? How many, and in which formats?"
• "Show me the 10 most recent video ads HubSpot ran in the US."
• "For stripe.com, ramp.com, and brex.com, which ones advertised on Google in the last 30 days?"

Tool

get_google_ads. One tool. Example arguments:

{
  "company_domain": "stripe.com",
  "max_ads": "20",
  "since_days": "90"
}

Inputs

Every buyer facing input of the live actor, unchanged. Omitted inputs take the actor's own defaults. Give one of company_domain, advertiser_name, domains, or advertiser_names.

Pricing

Pay per event on Apify, billed to your Apify account. Prices in USD.

Rows with no ads, blocked rows, changed source rows, error rows, and cached rows are free.

Your keys

The actor needs no provider key. It reads Google's public Ads Transparency Center and holds no key of its own. If a run uses the Apify proxy, that traffic adds nothing to your price: Mamba Labs pays the platform costs of the run. proxy_mode is a reliability setting.
