Your assistant can run benjiads. You stay in charge of the money.
Connect benjiads to ChatGPT, Claude or any assistant that supports MCP. Ask in plain words. It reads your leads and results, edits and publishes your site, prepares, launches and pauses your ads. You choose what it is allowed to do and can revoke it anytime. It never sees your card and cannot spend past the budget you funded.

benjiadsHow did my ads do this week?
benjiadsget_metricslist_campaigns done
9 people texted you from your ads this week. You spent $61, so about $7 a lead. Electrical repair · Long Beach is your only active campaign and you have $189 left in your ad balance.
A read, not a spend. Numbers are examples.
In plain words
Ask like you would ask a person.
Every answer below maps to a real benjiads tool. The small gray line under each question is the tool your assistant used.

benjiadsSet up a $30/day campaign for Long Beach and Signal Hill with my three newest ads. Don't turn it on yet.
benjiadscreate_campaignget_job done
Prepared and paused. 3 ads, $30 a day total split across both areas. Nothing spends until you say go. Say launch and I'll turn it on at that budget.

Signal Hill is in your service area now. Here is the draft with the EV charger line. Publish it? (Yes) Published. Want a campaign with your existing ads for EV chargers? It would stay paused until you approve.
Numbers are examples. Yours come from your own workspace. Muse support depends on Meta's connector review; the MCP connection itself works today.

Ask for what you need, when you need it.
19 things. Each one runs the same checks as your dashboard, whoever asks.

Monday check-in
Coffee, phone, thirty seconds. Ask what happened while you were on jobs.
How did last week go?
214 people visited your site and 11 left their number. 8 of those came from your ads.
Visits, form starts and leads for the last 1, 7 or 30 days, same numbers as your dashboard. Cost per lead comes from combining this with your ad spend.
benjiadsget_metricsRead results & usageWhat is running, and how much ad money do I have left?
One campaign is active, Electrical repair in Long Beach. You spent $61 this week and have $189 left in your ad balance.
Balance is what you funded in your dashboard. The assistant cannot add money to it. If Meta is unreachable, spend may come from the last stored figure.
benjiadslist_campaignsRead ads & balanceWho reached out this weekend?
3 new leads since Friday: a panel upgrade in Lakewood, an outlet repair in Signal Hill and an EV charger quote. Want me to read them out?
Phone numbers and emails stay masked when your subscription or trial is not active, exactly like your dashboard. Names stay visible.
benjiadslist_leadsRead leadsIs my new campaign ready yet?
Yes. 8 ads are prepared and paused. Say launch when you want them live.
Ready means prepared, not live. A licence hold shows here too and is cleared in your dashboard.

Slammed week, slow week
Turn the tap down or up without opening a laptop.
I am slammed until Monday. Pause my ads.
Paused Electrical repair in Long Beach. Nothing spends until you say go.
Pausing is immediate and uses the same access rules as the dashboard. Relaunching is a separate ask.
benjiadspause_campaignPrepare, launch & pause adsIt is Monday. Turn them back on.
Electrical repair in Long Beach is live again at the budget you saved. I checked your subscription and ad balance first, both fine.
Needs an active subscription or trial, available ad balance, finished preparation and any required licence. Billing pauses cannot be overridden. Your assistant is told to confirm the budget with you before launching; benjiads itself enforces those checks.
benjiadslaunch_campaignPrepare, launch & pause adsSet up a water heater campaign with my usual daily budget across both locations. Do not turn it on yet.
Preparing it now, paused. I will tell you when it is ready to review. It will not go live until you say so.
Always prepared paused. Runs the subscription, wallet, creative ownership and licence checks. The daily budget is the total across your locations, not per location.

New service area, new service
Your site changes as fast as your business does.
What does my site say about service areas right now?
Long Beach, Lakewood and Seal Beach. Your headline is 'Same-day electrical repair'. There is an unpublished draft from Tuesday.
Reads the live site and the draft. Works without a subscription.
benjiadsget_siteRead site & workspaceAdd Signal Hill to my service area and update the phone number on the site.
Done. Signal Hill is listed and your public number is updated.
Business details, appearance, service areas and publication status. Lead capture keeps working without a subscription.
benjiadsupdate_siteEdit & publish siteAdd a section about EV charger installs, but do not publish yet.
Saved as a draft. Check it in your dashboard, or tell me to publish.
Same checks as the site builder. The assistant reads your current site first. Nothing changes on the live site.
benjiadssave_site_draftEdit & publish siteLooks good. Publish it.
Published. Your site now shows the EV charger section.
Publishes the saved draft only. Review it first. No subscription needed. Buying a domain stays in the dashboard.

Before you spend
Know what your state and your trade require before an ad goes anywhere.
Which business are you connected to?
Mike's Electric, mike.benjiads.com. I can read your site, ads and results and pause or launch ads. Billing is off on this connection.
One business per connection. The assistant cannot switch to another workspace.
benjiadsget_workspaceRead site & workspaceIs anything blocking my ads in California?
One thing: your contractor licence number is missing for CA. Add it in your dashboard and the ads can go live.
Only a missing licence number blocks launch. Other fields guide your ad copy. Verification happens in the dashboard, never in chat. Subscription and funding are checked separately at launch.
benjiadsget_workspace_requirementsRead site & workspaceDo you handle HVAC too? My brother-in-law asked.
Yes, HVAC is supported, with its own state rules and ad-copy restrictions. Each business gets its own benjiads workspace.
A listed trade can still be on hold in some states. Reading the catalog does not open a new ad channel.
benjiadslist_verticalsRead site & workspaceWhat am I not allowed to say in an electrician ad?
Here are the copy rules, required disclosures and the states that need a licence number, in plain words.
Describes the trade's rules. It does not check your own licence; ask about blockers for that.

Tax time and the bill
The paperwork, without logging in.
Am I still on the trial?
Your subscription is active. The current period ends on the 28th.
Read only. Active includes an eligible trial, exactly as your dashboard shows it.
benjiadsget_subscriptionRead billingSign me up.
Here is your checkout link. Open it, sign in and confirm. I cannot take card details or confirm payment from here.
Hands you to the benjiads checkout in your browser. The call itself never charges a card or unlocks access. Existing subscribers manage billing from the same link.

Here are your subscription invoices for the year, with dates and amounts.
Subscription invoices only. Ad funding lives in your ad balance, not here.

In the last 30 days: 41 actions, mostly reading results and leads, plus 2 pauses. None of it adds to your bill.
Counters only, over the last 30 days. Using the assistant costs nothing extra.

See the API referenceThe rules it plays by
It works for you. It never spends for you.
Never sees your card
Subscribing hands you to the benjiads checkout in your browser; the call itself charges nothing and unlocks nothing.
Cannot spend past what you funded
Ads run on money already in your ad wallet, launch is refused when the balance is gone, and topping up happens in your dashboard only.
Every campaign starts paused
Going live is a separate ask that checks your subscription, ad balance, preparation and any required licence first.
You choose the permissions
Reading, editing your site, launching and pausing ads, leads and billing are each their own permission. Change or revoke them anytime in Integrations, and connections expire on their own.
Leads masked without a subscription
Lead phone numbers and emails stay masked when your subscription or trial is not active, on the server, exactly as in your dashboard. Names stay visible.
One connection, one business
The assistant works on the workspace you approved and cannot reach another, even with its IDs.
A retry never runs twice
Every action carries a key, so a flaky connection cannot launch two campaigns or publish twice.
These are checks in benjiads itself, the same code your dashboard runs. An assistant cannot talk its way around them. Full details in the docs: limits, retries and errors.
Limits, retries and errorsFor developers
Same operations, as a REST API.
Every tool on this page is also a REST endpoint under https://api.benjiads.com/v1, described by an OpenAPI file at https://api.benjiads.com/v1/openapi.json. The tool name is the operationId. Same workspace, permissions, subscription, licence, funding and retry checks. Every write carries an idempotency key so a retry never runs twice. 120 operations and 20 writes per minute per workspace.
Using the API or MCP adds nothing to your bill. Personal API keys live in Integrations.

-H "Authorization: Bearer <api-key>"FAQ
Questions owners ask.
Which assistants work with benjiads?+
ChatGPT, Claude and any assistant that supports remote MCP. You paste one address, api.benjiads.com/mcp, in its connectors or MCP settings and sign in with your phone. Muse is shown as an example client; benjiads does not claim a Muse directory listing yet.
Does it cost extra?+
No. Your assistant uses the same benjiads subscription and ad balance as your dashboard. There is no usage price for the connection or the API.
Can my assistant spend my money?+
Only inside what you already funded, and only when you ask to launch. It never sees your card, cannot top up the ad wallet, and every campaign it prepares starts paused.
Will it launch ads on its own?+
No. Everything it prepares starts paused. Launch is a separate step, at the budget you approved, and it still has to pass the subscription, funding and licence checks.
Can it read my leads?+
Yes, if you give it the Read leads permission. Phone numbers and emails stay masked when your subscription or trial is not active, exactly like your dashboard; names stay visible. Leads are still captured either way.
What can it not do?+
Fund the ad wallet, verify a licence, buy a domain, generate new creatives, delete campaigns or touch your Facebook page and ad account. Those stay in your dashboard. It also cannot reach a business you did not connect.
How do I disconnect it?+
Open Integrations in your dashboard and revoke the connection or key. Access stops immediately. Connections also expire on their own: an API key after 90 days by default, an assistant connection stops renewing after 30 days.
Do I need a developer?+
No. Paste the address, sign in with the code we text you, allow the permissions. Developers can use the same operations as a REST API at api.benjiads.com/v1 with an OpenAPI file.
Set up your site and ads first. Then hand the busywork to your assistant.
