To forecast reach in Google Ads with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Ads account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to forecast the reach of a planned campaign, which estimates reach, impressions and cost for a location and budget. You choose a location, a product, dates and a budget. The forecast only reads and spends nothing.
A reach forecast tells you what a budget can buy before you commit it. Claude looks up the options, then runs the forecast:
list_plannable_locations lists the locations available for reach planning.list_plannable_products lists the ad products available for planning in a location.generate_reach_forecast estimates reach, impressions and cost for a location, a product, dates and a budget.list_plannable_locations, list_plannable_products and generate_reach_forecast only read your account.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| list_plannable_locations | Finds a plannable location ID |
| list_plannable_products | Finds the product code |
| generate_reach_forecast | Runs the forecast |
The budget is given in micros, so 10 euros is 10 million. You do not have to convert it, as the assistant does it for you. Treat the output as an estimate, since real delivery depends on competition and the audience.
These steps use Claude to forecast reach. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.
Register at paidsync.ai and connect Google Ads with Google's own sign-in screen. It needs no developer token and no Google Cloud project. Pick the Google login that manages the account you will forecast reach in.
Add PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Google Ads accounts" and choose the one to forecast reach in.
Ask for the plannable locations and choose the market you want to reach.
Ask for the plannable products in that location and choose the format, such as a video format.
Give the dates and budget. The assistant runs the forecast and sums up reach, impressions and cost.
Run the forecast at two budgets and compare. If doubling the budget barely lifts reach, the smaller one is the better buy.
Use these two prompts to forecast reach, in this order.
