MCP won't unify market but will make it controllable
Magnus Ohlin, co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer at Camphouse, argues that the Model Context Protocol (MCP) will not create a single unified advertising market. Instead, MCP's main value is systematising and automating repetitive "micro-tasks" to generate structured, granular data that is currently hard to access. The article warns that multiple competing protocols and differing buying logics will prevent full centralisation, and that MCP will only be effective with disciplined, clean data and governance. It also highlights the broader role of agentic AI (browser and workflow agents) in orchestrating tasks across existing tools and workflows without forcing uniformity.
