Which platform carries your sales?
This is the deciding question. Madgicx describes itself as "the AI Ads Manager for Meta", and every product it names on its homepage, from the AI Marketer to the Meta Creative Tracker, is about Meta ads.[1]Its One-Click Report can pull in Google Ads, GA4, Shopify, Klaviyo and TikTok data, but that is reporting, not campaign management.[2]
RunAds went the other way. It started on Google Ads, where it builds Search, Shopping, Performance Max, Demand Gen and Local Service Ads campaigns, and added Meta in November 2026. Meta Ads opened to every RunAds account in November 2026: connect a Meta ad account and Mission Control plans and launches Meta campaigns, with Meta spend metered on the same credits. If most of your spend is on Meta today and you want years of Meta-specific tooling, Madgicx has the head start.
How do the features line up?
Building campaigns
Madgicx lists an Automated Ad Launch Tool that deploys creatives across campaigns.[1] RunAds runs a mission: it reads your website and account, plans the campaigns, writes the ads and images, and stops at review. Google dry-runs each Google campaign before the launch card reaches you.[4]
Optimizing
Madgicx's AI Marketer audits accounts and gives budget and audience recommendations. RunAds sends budget and bid changes as approval cards on accounts you connect, so nothing moves until you say yes, unless you switch the account to autopilot.
AI assistants
The RunAds MCP server lets you ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor about your account and approve changes from chat; writes return a preview first.[5] Madgicx's homepage links to a blog post about a Facebook Ads MCP but does not describe a connector, so we do not count it here.
Price
RunAds publishes its rate: credit packs from $25, used at 5 credits per $1 of Google ad spend: 4 above $10,000 a month, 3.5 above $100,000, 3 above $1,000,000.[3] Madgicx shows its Pro Complete price inside the app, after signup, and offers 7 days free to try it.[2]
Which fits you?

Method
We read Madgicx's homepage and pricing page on Nov 9, 2026. Third-party sites quote Madgicx prices, but they disagree and Madgicx does not publish one, so we leave price out. RunAds facts come from our pricing and product code. RunAds is our product.
