I live at the intersection of marketing and AI. Lucky to have tech friends who teach me everything. I help marketers set this up all the time.
So I wrote it down for you too.
What all these words mean (in plain English)
What You Can Build (examples from our community)

Example of a dashboard you can vibe code and connect to your Google Ads

Example of a client ad report with live data you can build

Where to Start: Cursor vs Claude Code
Two main tools. Pick one based on what you're building.
Option 1: Cursor
- →Visual stuff: websites, dashboards, landing pages
- →Easier for beginners
- →Free
Option 2: Claude Code
- →Backend stuff: automations, APIs, MCPs, agents
- →More powerful
- →Steeper learning curve
- →Works inside VS Code or terminal
My take: Start with Cursor. Build something visual. Get comfortable. Then move to Claude Code when you need APIs, MCPs, and automations.
How to Set Up Cursor
- 1Download from cursor.com
- 2Create a folder on your desktop
- 3Open folder in Cursor
- 4Press Ctrl+K to talk to AI
- 5Describe what you want
- 6Accept the code, iterate, done
How to Set Up Claude Code
- 1Download VS Code
- 2Install Claude extension from marketplace
- 3Sign in with your Anthropic account
- 4Open your project folder
- 5Open Claude panel
- 6Start describing what you want to build
The Vibe Coding Workflow
Every project follows four steps.
GitHub is also your backup. Every version saved. If something breaks, you can go back.
For bigger projects, talk to your developers. They can review your code, improve it, or take it from there. You built the prototype. They make it production-ready.
Connecting Google & Meta Ads to Your Projects
With MCPs, AI talks directly to your ad accounts. Pull reports. Pause campaigns. Adjust budgets.
What you can do once connected:
Read:
- →Pull campaign performance
- →Check spend and budgets
- →Get keyword and audience reports
Write:
- →Pause or enable campaigns
- →Adjust budgets
- →Create new ads
- →Update targeting
Use cases:
- →Build a Clawdbot chatbot that manages your ads through WhatsApp. Text "pause low performers" and it does it.
- →Auto-generate weekly reports. No more manual exports.
- →Get alerts when ROAS drops. AI pauses the campaign for you.
- →Ask questions about your data. "What's my best ad set this week?"
How to set it up:
- 1Get the API/MCP for Google/Meta Ads (you can use ours at Ryze AI → API or find one online)
- 2Follow the setup docs (they walk you through it)
- 3Connect to Cursor or Claude Code
- 4Start building
Any action you do manually in the ads UI — AI can now do for you.
