Hosted quickstart

Connect Google Ads and get an MCP endpoint in 2 minutes.

How the hosted version works

The hosted version at burnrate.sh runs burn-r8 for you. You don't need a developer token, OAuth credentials, or a local Python environment. Just:

  1. Sign up
  2. Connect your Google Ads account (one-click OAuth)
  3. Create an API key
  4. Add the MCP endpoint to your AI tool

Step 1: Sign up

Create an account at burnrate.sh/signup. Free tier includes 50 tool calls per month.

Step 2: Connect Google Ads

Go to Connections in your dashboard and click Connect Google Ads. This opens Google's OAuth flow — sign in with the Google account that manages your ads. burn-r8 gets read/write access to your Google Ads accounts. You can revoke this anytime from your Google account settings.

Step 3: Create an API key

Go to Settings and create an API key. You'll see the full key once — copy it immediately.

Step 4: Add the MCP endpoint

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude/.mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "burnr8": {
      "url": "https://mcp.burnrate.sh/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer br8_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add the same configuration in Cursor's MCP settings.

Any MCP client

burn-r8's hosted endpoint uses the standard MCP Streamable HTTP transport at https://mcp.burnrate.sh/mcp. Pass your API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.
