AdRoll Ships MCP Server for ChatGPT and Claude Campaign Access

AdRoll launched an open beta MCP server that lets marketers query campaign performance, create draft campaigns, and manage ABM workflows directly inside AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Microsoft Copilot Studio. The integration uses OAuth authentication and draft-first controls that stage changes for human review before going live.

The bottom line: Mid-market teams can now ask natural language questions like 'What changed in performance this week?' and get instant cross-campaign summaries without dashboard hopping.

MiniMax M3 Beats GPT-5.5 on SWE-Bench Pro at 5% of the Cost

MiniMax launched M3 on June 1, an open-weights model scoring 59.0% on SWE-Bench Pro with a 1-million-token context window and native multimodal input. Priced at $0.60 per million input tokens (with a 50% launch discount), it undercuts closed-source flagships by 90%. Model weights will be open-sourced within 10 days of launch.

The bottom line: Data teams building internal tools or running code generation workloads should benchmark M3 against current models. The price-performance ratio could significantly lower AI infrastructure costs.

HockeyStack Research: B2B Buyers Now Require 71 Touchpoints to Convert

HockeyStack's attribution data shows the average B2B company now needs 71 touchpoints to generate a marketing qualified lead, a 31% increase from 2023. Different stakeholder roles engage through different channels: technical buyers prefer documentation and GitHub while executives focus on ROI content and analyst reports.

The bottom line: Single-touch attribution is increasingly misleading. Teams should implement account-level multi-touch tracking that connects individual interactions to account-level progress across all buying committee members.

19 US States Now Enforce Privacy Laws: Rhode Island Eliminates Cure Period

By January 2026, 19 US states have enacted comprehensive data privacy laws, with Indiana, Kentucky, and Rhode Island joining the list. Rhode Island's lower applicability threshold (35,000 residents) and elimination of the 'right to cure' period represents an enforcement escalation. Organizations ignoring Global Privacy Control signals while claiming compliance are facing coordinated state investigations.

The bottom line: Audit your pixel implementations immediately. State AGs are running coordinated sweeps targeting businesses that claim to honor GPC but continue firing retargeting pixels without consent.
