ChatGPT Ads,
reach buyers while they decide.

More than 1.2 billion people use ChatGPT every week to explore options and decide what to buy, and businesses can now advertise there. ChatGPT Ads are self-serve in 89 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia and the UAE. I'm George Mortimer, a Google Partners All-Star who has run paid media across 35+ markets. I set up ChatGPT Ads with proper tracking, test them against your existing channels and only scale what pays back.

WHO I WORK WITH

For advertisers who want to be early, not reckless.

New channels reward the brands that test first, but only when the test is measured. Smaller businesses get a capped test with clear success criteria. Larger brands get a structured rollout alongside search and social.

WHY A CONSULTANT

ChatGPT Ads: a senior consultant vs an AI ads agency

New channels attract agencies selling early-access packages. A consultant runs a measured test, compares it with your other channels and only scales what pays back. Here's how the two compare. Read the full comparison: consultant vs agency →

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ChatGPT Ads, answered

  • ChatGPT Ads are sponsored placements in ChatGPT, shown when a product or service is relevant to the current conversation. They're clearly labeled and separate from ChatGPT's answers, and OpenAI says advertising doesn't influence the answers ChatGPT gives.

  • Sign up at ads.openai.com and use Ads Manager to set budgets, bids and pacing, upload ads and launch campaigns. Self-serve access depends on where your business is based. It's available in 89 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia and the UAE. Larger advertisers can also buy through OpenAI's sales team, agencies or technology partners.

  • You can buy on a cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM) or cost-per-click (CPC) basis and set your own budget and bids. Early US tests were reported at around a $60 CPM, but prices vary by market and competition, so I recommend a capped test budget to find your real cost per lead.

  • Ads appear only on the Free and Go plans. Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise plans are ad-free. OpenAI has said it doesn't show ads to users who say or are predicted to be under 18, and that ads aren't eligible to appear near sensitive or regulated topics such as health, mental health or politics.

  • Ads are matched to the topic of the current conversation. Advertisers don't see users' conversations or personal details, OpenAI says it doesn't sell user data, and users can turn off ad personalization.

  • Yes. OpenAI offers a pixel and a Conversions API, with aggregated performance reporting. I set both up and connect the results to your analytics, so ChatGPT Ads can be compared fairly with Google Ads and Meta.

  • They're most promising for products and services people research before buying. It's still a young channel, so treat it as a test: set clear success criteria, cap the budget and compare cost per result with your existing channels before scaling.
