How to connect Reddit Ads to Claude

Porter’s Reddit Ads connector for Claude takes 3 steps, with no code or Reddit developer app. Connect your ad accounts in Porter, add one MCP URL to Claude as a custom connector and ask. To connect Reddit Ads to Claude Code, see the tutorial. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard Claude uses to connect to tools.

What you need first

  • A Reddit login with access to the ad account in Reddit Ads Manager, as well as a free Porter account and any Claude plan. Porter then sees every ad account that login can manage.
  • Custom connectors work in Claude, Cowork and Claude Desktop on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans, but Free allows one (Anthropic’s guide to custom connectors). If you use Claude Code, follow the same Porter tutorial.

  1. Step 1: Connect Reddit Ads in Porter

    Sign up free at Porter, pick Reddit Ads as the source, sign in with Reddit and then click Allow. Pick the ad accounts Claude should read, then pick Claude as the destination.

  2. Step 2: Add the Reddit Ads connector to Claude

    In Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, click “+ Add” and choose Add custom connector. Then name it Porter Metrics, paste this URL and click Add:

    MCP URL
    https://mcp.portermetrics.com/mcp

    Porter’s Go to Claude button also opens the same window.

  3. Step 3: Ask Claude about Reddit Ads

    Finally, sign in with your Porter account to authorize Claude, then paste this prompt:

    Prompt
    List my Reddit Ads ad accounts and show Spend, Impressions and Clicks by Campaign Name for the last 7 full days. Calculate CTR and CPC yourself.

02Use cases and prompts

What you can ask Claude

Here are 8 things to try, and each starts with a real situation. Each use case comes with a prompt to copy, the fields it uses from the Reddit Ads fields list and who it’s for. Every prompt also has Claude work out CTR, CPC and eCPM from Spend, Impressions and Clicks.

Can Claude tell you which communities (subreddits) are worth the spend?

You get the subreddits to cut or grow from one question instead of a custom report and a pivot table.

Prompt
For the last 30 full days, by Community, show Spend, Impressions and Clicks. Calculate CTR, CPC and eCPM yourself from those totals. Rank communities by Spend and flag any community whose CPC is more than 30% above the account's CPC for the same period.
Then ask
Prompt
Now show the same for my top 3 campaigns by Spend, by Campaign Name and Community.

For: in-house paid social managers · agencies · B2B marketers

Fields used: CommunityCampaign NameSpendImpressionsClicks

Can Claude find Reddit campaigns that spend but don't convert?

The campaigns to rework sit at the top of one table, while ROAS is already worked out from purchase value.

Prompt
For the last 30 full days, by Campaign Name and Campaign Objective, show Spend, Clicks, Total Results, Cost Per Result, Purchase Clicks, Purchase Views and Purchase Total Value. Calculate ROAS as Purchase Total Value ÷ Spend. Rank campaigns by Spend and flag the ones in the top half of Spend with Cost Per Result above the account's.

For: e-commerce and DTC marketers · in-house performance marketers · agencies

Fields used: Campaign NameCampaign ObjectiveSpendClicksTotal ResultsCost Per ResultPurchase ClicksPurchase ViewsPurchase Total Value

Can Claude compare Reddit interest and keyword targets?

You see which audience type gets cheaper clicks before you move budget between interest and keyword ad groups.

Prompt
For the last 30 full days, by Interest, show Spend, Impressions and Clicks; calculate CTR and CPC. List the 10 interests with the most Spend and mark those with CPC above the account's.
Then ask
Prompt
Now the same by Keyword.

For: in-house paid social managers · B2B marketers · agencies

Fields used: InterestKeywordSpendImpressionsClicks

Can Claude show which Reddit video ads get watched?

Cost per 3-second view and completion share tell you which creative gets the next round of budget, so there’s no spreadsheet in between.

Prompt
For last month, by Ad Name, show Spend, Impressions, Video Starts, Video Watched 3s and Video Watched 100%. Calculate cost per 3-second view (Spend ÷ Video Watched 3s) and completion share (Video Watched 100% ÷ Video Starts). Show the 5 best and 5 worst ads by completion share with at least 1,000 Video Starts.

For: video and brand marketers · agencies

Fields used: Ad NameSpendImpressionsVideo StartsVideo Watched 3sVideo Watched 100%

Do Reddit ads work better in the feed or on the comments page, and on which devices?

You choose placements and devices on CTR and CPC together, rather than on whichever one looks better alone.

Prompt
For the last 30 full days, by Placement and OS Type, show Spend, Impressions and Clicks. Calculate CTR and CPC yourself and tell me which Placement and OS Type pair has the best CTR at below-average CPC.

For: in-house paid social managers · e-commerce marketers

Fields used: PlacementOS TypeSpendImpressionsClicks

Can Claude find which countries and regions get the cheapest clicks?

You can weight budget toward regions with cheap, steady clicks instead of guessing from the country list.

Prompt
For the last 30 full days, by Country and Region, show Spend, Impressions and Clicks; calculate CPC and CTR. List the 10 regions with the most Spend and the 5 with the lowest CPC that had at least 500 Clicks.

For: e-commerce marketers · agencies · B2B marketers

Fields used: CountryRegionSpendImpressionsClicks

Can Claude pace Reddit campaign budgets and pause the ones overspending?

This replaces a weekly spend-vs-budget sheet and flags trouble before the end date, not after.

Prompt
List my active Reddit Ads campaigns with Campaign Goal Type, Campaign Goal Value, Campaign Start Time, Campaign End Time and Campaign Effective Status. In a second step, show Spend by Date and Campaign Name since each campaign started. Project spend to the end date and flag campaigns that will pass their lifetime budget or spend under 80% of it.

For: agencies · in-house paid social managers

Fields used: Campaign NameCampaign Goal TypeCampaign Goal ValueCampaign Start TimeCampaign End TimeCampaign Effective StatusSpendDate

Can Claude compare Reddit and LinkedIn Ads?

Both platforms land in one weekly table, so the budget split starts from CPC and cost per result instead of two dashboards.

Prompt
For the last 8 full weeks, show Reddit Ads Spend, Clicks and Total Results by Date, then LinkedIn Ads spend, clicks and conversions by date. Group both by week, calculate CPC and cost per result for each platform and tell me where the next $1,000 should go.

06Data and actions

Reddit Ads data Claude can use

The Reddit Ads connector gives Claude 155 fields in 11 groups, all named in the Reddit Ads field list. They cover account, campaign, ad group and ad settings, as well as spend and delivery, conversions by event, and video. Community, interest, keyword, placement, device and geography breakdowns can also split any of them.

The 12 Reddit Ads fields Claude uses most

These 12 rows cover most questions. Porter's CTR, CPC, eCPM and Frequency are right per day but wrong on multi-day rows, so Claude works them out from Spend, Impressions and Clicks. Cost Per Result, however, is fine.

How fresh is the data, and how far back?

Porter queries Reddit live for each question, but Reddit's numbers can take up to 6 hours to settle. Late conversions land in Reddit's daily refresh, so past days can still change (Reddit's notes on freshness and history).

History goes back 24 months, including reach and frequency from June 2024. Paid Porter plans read all 24 months, while the free plan reads a shorter window, listed under pricing.

07Security

Is it safe?

Yes. The Reddit Ads connector for Claude reads your reports through Reddit's official Ads API, and only after you sign in with Reddit and click Allow. Claude talks to Porter rather than to Reddit, so it only sees the ad accounts you connected in Porter. If you remove the Porter connector in Claude, that access is gone.

Can Claude pause, edit or create Reddit Ads campaigns?

Claude gives you the exact changes and why, based on the numbers it read, and you make them in Reddit Ads Manager in a few clicks. Your campaigns, ad groups, ads, budgets, bids and targeting stay exactly as you set them.

What the connector needs from Reddit Ads

Sign in with the Reddit user who manages the ad account, check the username and then click Allow (Reddit's Ads API sign-in steps). Porter can read every ad account that user manages, and that set changes when the user's permissions do.

Porter reads reports through Reddit's own Ads API with your sign-in, which is the route Reddit built for reporting tools, so there's no scraping (Reddit's Ads API overview).

08FAQ

FAQ

Most questions before connecting are about other AI apps, several ad accounts, conversions, an existing Data Studio connection and free options. The last three answers cover numbers or questions that look wrong, each with the first fix to try.

Does Porter work in ChatGPT and Claude Code?

Yes, the MCP URL behind the Reddit Ads connector for Claude also works in ChatGPT and Claude Code. If you use ChatGPT, follow the guide to connect Reddit Ads to ChatGPT. If you need the terminal setup, see the Claude Code section of Porter's Reddit Ads tutorial.

Can I connect several Reddit ad accounts, like an agency?

Yes, one Reddit login brings every ad account that user manages into Porter. Then Claude can compare them in one answer with Ad Account Name as a column. Porter bills each ad account once you connect it, while every client stays under one subscription.

Can Claude report purchases, sign-ups and leads?

Yes, Claude reports results and cost per result for your key conversion, by campaign, ad group and ad. It also reads purchases, sign-ups, leads, add to cart and page visits, split into click-through and view-through, including purchase value.

Conversions come in once the Reddit Pixel or the Conversions API runs on your site (Reddit's Conversions API guide).

I already send Reddit Ads to Data Studio with Porter. Do I need to reconnect?

No, because a Reddit ad account connected in Porter feeds every Porter destination, including Data Studio and Claude, at no extra cost. Just add the MCP URL to Claude, then sign in with the same Porter account and ask.

Is there a free Reddit Ads MCP?

Yes, Porter's free plan includes the Reddit Ads connector for Claude, with no time limit and the history window listed under pricing. Community servers on GitHub, such as RedditAdsMcp, are also free if you host them yourself and create your own Reddit developer app.

Troubleshooting

Why don't Claude's numbers match Reddit Ads Manager?

Compare complete days and let Claude work out CTR, CPC and eCPM from raw counts, and its Reddit Ads numbers through Porter should line up with Reddit Ads Manager. Reddit numbers settle within 6 hours, and late conversions arrive in the daily refresh.

Reach over a range is also a sum of daily reach, and ready-made ratios drift over several days.

Why does Claude return no data for one Reddit ad account?

Reconnect the Reddit ad account in Porter with the Reddit user who manages it, then ask Claude again. Claude returns no rows when that sign-in in Porter broke, or when the Reddit user lost access to the account. An account with a broken sign-in looks like one with no activity, so it's easy to miss.

Why did a Reddit Ads question fail in Claude?

Ask one breakdown at a time and keep hourly questions to a week, and your Reddit Ads questions in Claude run through Porter cleanly. A question fails when it breaks one of Reddit's report rules.

From December 8, 2026, Reddit rejects community, interest or keyword together with country, region or device. It also rejects requests with more than 3 breakdowns and hourly ranges over 7 days.
