Overview

AI-generated overview

Apify-hosted MCP server that scrapes Google Ads Transparency Center records by company domain, returning ad creatives, formats, advertisers and shown dates.

What you can do
  • Look up Google Ads Transparency Center records for a company domain
  • Retrieve ad creatives, formats, advertisers and first/last shown dates when available
  • Run bulk domain lookups and summary options
  • Export structured JSON for competitor ad research and brand monitoring
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to research competitors' Google advertising by domain, monitor brand ad activity, or feed ad records into n8n, Make or other automation. It is a scraping tool, not a live ad-spend or performance analytics service.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com over streamable HTTP. An Apify account and an Apify API token sent as an Authorization Bearer header; a free Apify account is enough to connect. Runs are billed through Apify.
Before you install
The Authorization header carries an Apify API token, so keep it out of public links or client-side code. Runs consume Apify Actor events and platform/storage charges; the live Pricing tab controls rates and there is no blanket free-run promise. A successful run can still return source diagnostics or no useful data, so review the output.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Google Ads Transparency Scraper: Competitor Ads by Domain in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.edtool79-collab%2Fgoogle-ads-transparency-scraper/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

HirePulse public data tools

19 public Actors verified in the owner account on October 28, 2026. Choose tools by their actual public evidence and output, not by a promised business outcome. Current Apify Input and Pricing tabs are authoritative.

Start with a useful first run

Each guide includes an actual dated owner-run sample, runnable input, Python, source limits and an explicit event-charge cap. Owner tests are not customer results. A cap is not a quoted price.

Current public catalog

Run through Apify

Run an Actor in Apify Console or use the REST API and an existing Apify token. Put the token in the Authorization Bearer header, not in public links or client-side code. To start: POST /v2/actors/hirepulse~ACTOR_NAME/runs, with the Actor input JSON and maxTotalChargeUsd, timeout and memory query parameters. Poll the returned run ID and inspect its dataset and OUTPUT diagnostics. Do not automatically repeat a run-start POST after a timeout.

Bounded Python runner. Use the Apify integration in n8n or Make, or the official Apify MCP server: https://mcp.apify.com . These Actors are distinct from the separate HirePulse gateway and its prices.

Source and billing limits

Public/native SEO and keyword modes do not measure traffic, Google ranking positions, volume or CPC. Crawler readiness is an HTTP checklist, not AI answer citation tracking. llms.txt output is a draft, not deployment or a sales guarantee. A first hiring snapshot is a baseline, not a hiring spike. A successful run can still contain source diagnostics or no useful data. Review the actual output.

Apify Actor events, external collection and applicable platform/storage charges must be considered separately. The live Pricing tab controls current rates; there is no blanket free-run promise. No search ranking, future source availability or customer outcome is guaranteed.
