Comparison matrix
Capacity and creative control first
This table separates monthly call capacity, LinkedIn Ads-specific tool breadth, image handling, and video handling. “Not published” means the vendor’s public documentation does not support a more specific claim.
| Server | Operations / month | LinkedIn Ads tools | Change image assets | Change video assets | Write access |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
NotFair Our verdict | Free: 300/month after 7 unlimited days. Growth: unlimited ($99/mo monthly, or $950/yr (~$79/mo) annually).Usage source | 42 LinkedIn Ads tools | Yes — uploadImage fetches a public URL and returns urn:li:image for creatives.Capability source | No — chunked LinkedIn video upload is out of the current v1 media helper. | Yes — campaign groups, campaigns, creatives, targeting, audiences, conversions, and lead forms; new entities default to draft |
Markifact | 200 one-time signup credits; paid plans use a selected monthly credit balance. Most MCP data operations cost about 1 credit.Usage source | LinkedIn-specific count not published; 1,000+ operations across 30+ marketing platforms | Vendor documents LinkedIn creatives and lead-gen form attach-only workflows; a dedicated image-upload tool inventory is not published at NotFair granularity. | LinkedIn video upload granularity is not published on the pages used for this row. | Yes — approval before writes is documented |
Adspirer | Free 15; Plus 150; Pro 600; Max 3,000 tool calls/month.Usage source | 55 LinkedIn Ads tools on the current integration page | Vendor documents LinkedIn creative workflows on the integration page. | Video-upload specifics follow that page; this row does not add unpublished limits. | Yes — paused-first creation is documented on Adspirer ad-platform pages |
Ryze AI | Free to connect; no public monthly MCP operation cap is stated. Paid Ads Autopilot starts at $89/month. | LinkedIn-specific count not published; 150+ tools across connected platforms | Vendor advertises LinkedIn as a connected ads platform; image-upload details are not published at tool granularity. | LinkedIn video upload details are not published on the connector pages used here. | Yes |
Pipeboard | No public monthly MCP operation cap is stated on the LinkedIn connector used for this row. | LinkedIn-specific count not published on the public connector page | Public connector exists at linkedin-ads.mcp.pipeboard.co; image-mutation inventory is whatever that connector documents. | Video-mutation inventory is not published at a counted level on that page. | Yes — hosted LinkedIn Ads writes are advertised |
NotFair LinkedIn image upload fetches a public URL and PUTs bytes to LinkedIn’s initializeUpload URL. Chunked video upload is deliberately out of the current v1 media helper.
Operating model
Setup, safeguards, account routing, and client reach
| Server | Best for | Delivery | Credentials | Safety lifecycle | Multi-account | Clients |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
NotFair Our verdict | Operators who want hosted LinkedIn Ads reads and draft-first writes | Hosted remote MCP | Hosted OAuth; no customer LinkedIn developer app required | Exact proposal, explicit approval, and operation provenance. NotFair does not expose Google Ads-style impact snapshots or undo for this platform. | Connected-account selection with explicit per-call account routing | Claude Web/Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenClaw, Hermes |
Markifact | Cross-platform marketing workflows that include LinkedIn | Hosted remote MCP | Hosted connection | Vendor documents approval before writes | Unlimited ad accounts on current paid plans | Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, and other MCP clients |
Adspirer | Multi-platform campaign creation with an explicit LinkedIn tool list | Hosted remote MCP + ChatGPT App | Hosted OAuth | Research → validate → confirm workflow; paused-first creation | Connected-account selection | ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw |
Ryze AI | Teams wanting one hosted connector across ads and analytics | Hosted remote MCP | Hosted OAuth | Vendor documents approval controls, dry-run mode, and change limits | Vendor advertises per-client isolation | Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP-compatible clients |
Pipeboard | Teams that want a LinkedIn-specific hosted MCP endpoint | Hosted remote MCP | Hosted OAuth | Public docs describe hosted OAuth; NotFair-style approval/provenance is not assumed | Hosted LinkedIn ad-account connection | MCP clients that can reach linkedin-ads.mcp.pipeboard.co |
NotFair is the publisher of this comparison and is therefore not a neutral party. Vendor-wide tool totals are not treated as LinkedIn Ads-specific totals.
Testing method
A benchmark that can be rerun
We review the connection boundary, tool surface, write contract, account routing, and recovery path. Marketing claims without a public document, schema, or observable flow are not treated as verified capabilities.
01
Monthly capacity
How many MCP operations can the user run each month, what consumes quota, and what happens at the limit?
02
Tool depth
How many tools are LinkedIn Ads-specific rather than a cross-platform total, and which workflows do they actually cover?
03
Creative assets
Can the server upload or attach supplied image and video assets—not merely generate ad copy?
04
Connection
Can a non-developer connect without building OAuth infrastructure?
05
Useful reads
Can the agent inspect accounts, performance, settings, and related entities with typed outputs?
06
Safe writes
Are mutations previewed, bound to explicit approval, and protected by server-side guardrails?
07
After the write
Can the operator identify provenance and reverse supported changes? Google Ads-style impact snapshots are not assumed.
08
Account routing
Can the agent discover and explicitly target the intended ad account?
09
Client reach
Does the same remote endpoint work in the AI workspace the operator already uses?
Test boundary
NotFair was verified against its production LinkedIn Ads registrar and hosted OAuth connection. Competitor rows are based on linked public documentation; no competitor account was connected and no competitor write was executed for this review.

NotFair production path
Inspect → preview → approve → execute → verify
- The agent reads campaign groups, campaigns, creatives, targeting, and analytics.
- New campaigns and creatives default to draft unless activation is explicit.
- Execution waits for explicit user approval.
- The operation records its author, ID, timestamp, and provenance.
- uploadImage returns an urn:li:image for creative content.
- Video file upload is not part of the current NotFair LinkedIn v1 media helper.
