# Using ADSMCP Across Multiple AI Clients

> Use the same ADSMCP account with ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Perplexity, Manus, and more. One account, one limit, any AI client.

Your ADSMCP account works with every supported AI client. Connect once, use everywhere. All clients share the same MCP (Model Context Protocol — an open standard for connecting AI assistants to external tools) connection.

## One Account, Any Client

| AI Client | Type | Best For |
| - | - | - |
| [ChatGPT](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/chatgpt.md) | Chat app | Marketers, non-technical users |
| [Claude](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/claude.md) | Chat app | Best MCP integration, progress streaming |
| [Claude Code](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/claude-code.md) | Terminal | Developers, automation, scripting |
| [Gemini CLI](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/gemini-cli.md) | Terminal | Developers using Google's AI CLI |
| [Cursor](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/cursor.md) | IDE | Developers who live in their editor |
| [Grok Bot](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/grok.md) | Cloud bot | Scheduled reporting that arrives on its own |
| [Codex](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/codex.md) | Autonomous agent | Scheduled tasks, daily monitoring |
| [OpenClaw](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/openclaw.md) | CLI agent | Pre-configured advertising agent |
| [Windsurf](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/windsurf.md) | IDE | Codeium users |
| [Perplexity](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/perplexity.md) | Chat app + Agent | Search-powered research + ad management |
| [Manus](https://docs.adsmcp.si/ai-clients/manus.md) | Autonomous agent | Deep research, dashboards, scheduled briefs |

All clients connect to the same MCP server (`mcp.adsmcp.si/mcp`) and share your tool call quota.

## Key Differences

### ChatGPT vs Claude

Both work well. Claude has deeper MCP integration (Anthropic created MCP) with progress streaming during long operations. ChatGPT may need more explicit tool mentions in prompts.

### Chat Apps vs Developer Tools

**Chat apps** (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity) are conversational — you describe what you want in natural language. No configuration files.

**Developer tools** (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenClaw, Windsurf) support **agent skills** — instruction files that teach the AI optimal advertising workflows. Skills enforce safety rules automatically and improve tool invocation accuracy.

### Interactive vs Autonomous

**Interactive** (all except Codex): You ask, the AI responds. Real-time conversation.

**Autonomous** (Codex): You define a task and schedule. The agent runs it without you being present — e.g., daily performance checks at 8 AM.

## Shared Tool Call Limit

Your monthly tool call limit applies across **all** clients. If your Plus plan has 150 calls/month:

* 50 calls from ChatGPT + 50 from Claude + 25 from Perplexity + 25 from Cursor = 150 total
* Switching clients doesn't reset your limit

Check usage from any client:

## FAQ

> **Do I need separate ADSMCP accounts for each AI client?**
>
> No. One ADSMCP account works across all clients. Your ad platform connections persist across all of them.

> **How do shared tool calls work for a whole team?**
>
> The single-account model above applies to one user. Agencies and teams who need multi-seat access — where every planner has their own login and tool calls are pooled across the team — should [book a demo](https://adsmcp.si/book-demo) so we can size a team plan.

> **Can I use different AI clients for different tasks?**
>
> Yes, and this is recommended. Use Claude for quick ad-hoc queries, Cursor for deep analysis sessions, and Codex for scheduled daily monitoring.

> **What if I switch AI clients mid-workflow?**
>
> Your ad platform connections persist. But workflow state (like "I was in the middle of creating a campaign") doesn't carry between clients. Start a new workflow in the new client.
