Adspirer pricing is based on tool calls, not ad spend. A tool call is a task your AI assistant performs for you — anything from a one-line question to a full multi-platform campaign launch.
Think of a tool call as a task, on a complexity spectrum. The same plan covers tasks at every level — you just use more calls when the task is bigger.
Why tasks vary so much: A single sentence to your AI can trigger anywhere from one tool call to forty, depending on what you ask for. The Pro plan (600 calls/month) is sized to handle real production work — typically 50–60 medium tasks or a smaller number of complex multi-platform launches.
Plans
Plus plan includes pay-as-you-go overage. After your 150 included calls, you can keep using tools at 0.50peradditionalcall,cappedat50/month in overage charges. Overage billing is auto-enabled for Plus subscribers — you can disable it anytime from your billing page.
Add-ons (One-Time Purchases)
These are one-time charges, not subscriptions. Nothing about them recurs, and they don’t change your plan price.
The Prompt Engineering Playbook generates a custom agent skill, an account dossier, a prompt book, and paste-ready agent instructions from your ad account’s real campaigns and history. You download the files and install them in Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cowork, Cursor, or Codex. They’re yours to keep, and rebuilding them against fresh data later is free and unlimited.
It’s priced per ad account because it’s generated from that account’s own data — two accounts means two playbooks. Buying several is one checkout and one charge, and selecting every eligible account takes 20% off the whole cart (minimum two accounts; a partial selection pays full price per kit).

Because each playbook is generated on demand from your account, it’s non-refundable once the build has completed and the files are available to download. Failed builds and accounts you can’t access are a different matter — contact support.
The number of ad accounts you can have active (used by the agent) on each platform depends on your plan and billing interval. You can connect unlimited accounts on any plan — this is about how many can be active simultaneously.
The cap is per platform — a Plus annual customer can activate up to 5 Google Ads accounts and 5 Meta accounts and 5 LinkedIn accounts and 5 TikTok accounts at the same time. See Multi-Account for how the agent fans out tool calls across active accounts.
If you downgrade and end up over the cap, Adspirer demotes excess accounts to inactive automatically (most-recently-synced kept; primary-set accounts kept first). Reconnecting or activating different accounts is a one-click operation in the Manage Accounts modal.

Annual subscribers get a single yearly pool instead of per-month caps.
There are no monthly resets — use your calls whenever you need them.
The annual perk: Monthly plans reset every 30 days — if you hit your cap mid-month, tools stop. Annual plans give you one large pool for the whole year. Spend calls heavily during a campaign launch, coast during slow periods — no monthly wall to hit.
How the annual pool works:
- Your pool renews on your subscription anniversary date (not monthly).
- Unused calls do not roll over to the next year.
- The quota counter in your account shows calls remaining for the current year.
- Max annual (50,000) is intentionally higher than 12× monthly (36,000) — the annual plan is the upgrade incentive for high-volume periods.
- Annual subscribers never hit overage charges; the yearly pool is their total budget for the year.
How up-to-date your campaign data is depends on your plan.
Free Plan — One-Time Data Sync
When you first connect an ad account on the Free plan, Adspirer pulls a one-time snapshot of your last 90 days of campaign performance. That snapshot is used for analysis, keyword research, and wasted-spend detection.
The data is not refreshed after signup. If you return a month later, your performance data will be a month stale. Tools like get_campaign_performance and analyze_wasted_spend will reflect the state of your account at the time you signed up, not today.
To work with current data, you need to upgrade to Plus or above.
Plus, Pro & Max — Ongoing Background Sync
Paid plans run regular background metric collection — Adspirer syncs campaign structures, keywords, performance metrics, and budget data from your connected ad accounts automatically. When you ask “what’s my ROAS this week?” you get current data, not a stale snapshot.
Sync frequency varies by platform:
If you’re on the Free plan and your data feels outdated, upgrading to Plus immediately triggers a fresh sync. You’ll have current data within minutes of upgrading.
Google Ads sync cadence: Google Ads background collection runs 3 times per week rather than daily. This is due to Google Ads API rate limits and reliability constraints that affect background collection jobs. For on-demand live data, use tools like get_campaign_performance directly — those always pull fresh data from the API in real time, regardless of sync schedule.
Which Plan Do I Need?
Use this guide based on your situation:
The more platforms you manage and the more campaigns you run, the more tool calls you’ll use. Multi-platform users burn through calls faster because each platform query is a separate tool call.
Each tool invocation counts as 1 call, regardless of:
- Which platform (Google, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok)
- Which AI client (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Cursor, etc.)
- How much data is returned
- How long the operation takes
Typical Usage by Task
Full Workflow Cost Examples
Most users don’t run individual tools — they run workflows. Here’s what typical end-to-end workflows cost:
Can I create campaigns on the free plan? Yes — one campaign, if you know exactly what you want. A medium campaign launch uses 8–12 tool calls, so the free tier (15 calls) is sized to verify Adspirer connects to your AI client and ad accounts and to run one end-to-end campaign as a taste test. For ongoing production work, plan on Plus or above.
Monthly Usage Examples
How Adspirer Pro Compares to Hiring
The Pro plan (600 tool calls/month for $99) delivers roughly 120 hours of equivalent specialist work per month — the same workload an in-house paid media specialist or contracted PPC freelancer would cover.
The math:
- Adspirer Pro is ~76× cheaper than building it in-house
- And ~15× cheaper than even a part-time Upwork contractor (who only covers ~20% of the workload)
- Annual savings vs in-house: $88,812
- Annual savings vs Upwork contractor: $16,812
- Total Adspirer Pro spend per year: $1,188
Reference scenario: a benchmark account spending ~$10K/month on Google Ads with 2–3 active campaigns. See the full breakdown in our research.
Why this comparison matters: Pricing pages typically frame “99/mo"asacost.Therealframeiswhat99/mo replaces — the difference between Adspirer Pro and the cheapest alternative that does the same workload is over $1,400/month.
Counts: Any tool invocation through MCP — get_campaign_performance, research_keywords, create_search_campaign, etc.
Does NOT count:
- Connecting your AI client to Adspirer
- OAuth authentication / login
- Viewing your account status
- AI assistant thinking / reasoning between tool calls
- Failed tool calls due to authentication errors
Checking Your Usage
Ask your AI assistant:
This returns your current plan, calls used this month, and calls remaining.
The Usage & Billing page at adspirer.ai shows the same numbers, plus a Connection Health card: whether your AI assistant is connected via MCP and, per ad account, whether the OAuth link is healthy or needs reconnecting — with a Test now button that re-checks live.
Overage billing (Plus plan)
Plus subscribers get pay-as-you-go overage after their 150 included tool calls:
How it works
- Your first 150 tool calls each month are included in your $49 Plus subscription
- After 150 calls, each additional call costs $0.50 — billed through Stripe at the end of your billing cycle
- Overage charges are capped at 50/month(100extracalls),soyourmaximummonthlybillis99
- If you hit the $50 cap, tools are paused until your next billing cycle — or you can upgrade to Pro
Disabling overage
If you prefer the previous behavior (tools stop at 150 calls), toggle overage off from your billing page. When disabled, you’ll see an upgrade prompt at 150 calls instead of being billed per call.
Overage billing applies only to Plus monthly subscribers (0.50/callafter150,cappedatanadditional50/month). Pro and Max monthly subscribers hit a hard cap — no overage charges. Annual subscribers (Plus, Pro, or Max) never hit overage — the yearly pool is their total budget for the year.
Upgrading
If you hit your limit mid-month, upgrade takes effect immediately and resets your counter. Visit adspirer.ai to manage your plan. The Manage Subscription link on the Current Plan card opens the Stripe billing portal, where you can update payment details, switch between annual and monthly billing, or cancel.
FAQ
I was charged $39 on top of my plan — is that a new subscription?
No. That’s the Prompt Engineering Playbook, a one-time add-on for one ad account. It appears on the same invoice as your plan as a separate line called “One-time Agent Setup — 1 Ad Account”, which is why that month’s total was higher. Your recurring plan price didn’t change and the $39 won’t appear again. Do unused calls roll over?
Monthly plans: No. Tool call limits reset on your monthly billing date. Unused calls do not carry over.Annual plans: No. Your yearly pool renews on your subscription anniversary date. Unused calls at year-end do not roll over to the next year.
Can I pay per call instead of monthly?
Plus subscribers get per-call overage billing after their 150 included calls — 0.50peradditionalcall,cappedat50/month. Pro and Max plans are fixed subscriptions without per-call billing. Does the same Adspirer account work across all AI clients?
Yes. Your tool call limit is shared across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Cursor, and all other clients. One account, one limit.
Can I create campaigns on the free plan?
Yes — one campaign, if you know exactly what you want. A typical campaign launch (Google Search, Meta image/video, or LinkedIn) uses 8–12 tool calls when you include keyword research, ad copy, asset validation, and creation. The free tier (15 calls/month) is sized to verify Adspirer connects to your AI client and ad accounts and to run one end-to-end campaign as a taste test — not for ongoing production work. For active campaign management, plan on Plus or above.
Do I need a paid ChatGPT or Claude subscription to use Adspirer?
It depends on your AI client. Custom MCP connectors require:
- Claude: Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise (connectors aren’t available on the Claude free tier)
- ChatGPT: Plus or Pro (connectors aren’t available on the ChatGPT free tier)
These are AI platform requirements, not Adspirer’s. Free alternatives: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, OpenClaw, and Gemini CLI connect to Adspirer through their own MCP support — no paid subscription to Claude or ChatGPT required. What happens if I run out of tool calls mid-month?
How do I know which plan I need?
It depends on how many platforms you use, how many campaigns you create, and how often you check performance. See the “Which Plan Do I Need?” section above. You can also try our pricing calculator.
