Control. Autonomous platforms like Perpetua, Teikametrics and Quartile change bids for you. Marketplace Ad Pros connects your Amazon Ads, Seller or Vendor Central, DSP and AMC data to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client; AI proposes changes and you confirm each one before it runs.
Several do now, including Helium 10, Teikametrics, Intentwise and Pacvue. Marketplace Ad Pros launched its MCP server in May 2025.
