Integration · OpenClaw × Google Ads
Run a Google Ads agent inside OpenClaw
OpenClaw is an open-source agent runtime that speaks MCP. NotFair adds Google Ads as a typed tool surface so OpenClaw-built agents can diagnose and optimize live campaigns.
Connect your Google Ads account
Authorize once at notfair.co — then open OpenClaw and start asking real questions about your account.
Setup
Connect OpenClaw in three steps
OpenClaw consumes MCP servers via standard config. NotFair drops in like any other server.
1. Open OpenClaw's MCP config
Edit the mcp section of your OpenClaw config (typically openclaw.json or your runner's config).
2. Add NotFair
Register NotFair under mcpServers.
{ "mcpServers": { "NotFair-GoogleAds": { "url": "https://notfair.co/api/mcp/google_ads" } } }3. Authorize Google Ads
Run notfair.co/connect, complete Google OAuth, and OpenClaw can call NotFair tools immediately.
Capabilities
What OpenClaw can do with NotFair
Open-source friendly
NotFair speaks vanilla MCP — no proprietary client SDK required.
Typed primitives
Read tools, write tools, freshness metadata — all documented and stable.
Approval gates
Even in fully autonomous OpenClaw loops, writes require approval by default.
Audit log
Every write is logged with provenance so you can review what the agent did.
Example workflows
Prompts that lead to real account work
Autonomous weekly audit
“Run my weekly Google Ads health check. Diagnose performance, surface wasted spend, propose negatives. Wait for my approval before applying writes.”
OpenClaw schedules and runs the workflow weekly; you get a report and an approval queue.
Multi-account ops
“For each connected Google Ads account, surface the top 3 issues. Group by account, rank by spend impact.”
Cross-account snapshot useful for agencies and operators managing multiple accounts.
Conversion-tracking sweep
“Audit conversion tracking on every campaign. Flag any campaign optimizing for a conversion action that hasn't fired in 30 days.”
Surfaces broken conversion setups that quietly destroy automated-bidding effectiveness.
Why NotFair for OpenClaw operators
OpenClaw is the open-source path to running agents on your own infra. NotFair complements that with the open Google Ads tool surface — no vendor lock-in, no proprietary protocol.
- Standard MCP — no proprietary OpenClaw plugin required
- Typed primitives that survive model upgrades
- Approval gate even in fully autonomous loops
- Operation log integrates with whatever observability you already run
FAQ
Common questions about using OpenClaw with Google Ads through NotFair.
Does NotFair require a paid plan for OpenClaw use?
No. The MCP server is free during open beta and the free tier is planned to remain generous for solo and small-team OpenClaw operators.
Is NotFair safe to use on a real Google Ads account?
Yes. NotFair separates read tools from write tools. Diagnostic queries run freely, but every write — bid change, negative keyword, ad copy, campaign state — is approval-gated and logged with full provenance so you can audit exactly what the agent did.
How much does NotFair cost?
Free during open beta. NotFair plans to keep a generous free tier for solo operators and a usage-priced plan for teams managing multiple accounts. See /pricing for current limits.
Is NotFair an official Google or Anthropic product?
No. NotFair is an independent product built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard and the Google Ads API. MCP is Anthropic's open protocol for connecting AI clients to external tools; NotFair is one focused entirely on Google Ads.
