Ads next to the answer.
ChatGPT Ads sit under the response, labelled and separated. We run them against the people who can actually see ads (Free and Go), with the pixel and crawler wiring OpenAI's
The short version.
ChatGPT Ads sit under the end of a response, labelled and visually separated, never inside the answer. OpenAI says that in its own help centre. The click is often cheaper than Google. The problem is who can see the ad, and what happens after
Ads reach Free and Go only. Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu are ad-free. An enterprise demo offer is buying the complement of its own buyer. We say that before anyone spends. The offers that fit this surface are low-friction: an audit, a quote, a comparison. In SE Ranking's 50,006-prompt sample, BestMoney, a lead-gen site, accounted for 13.56% of all ChatGPT
The other failure mode is silent. OpenAI requires OAI-AdsBot to be allowed in its own robots group, and the pixel drops events if the data object is missing. On this site we caught 3,930 rejected page_viewed events after launch because the measure call shipped without its data object. That gate is now in CI. We will not run a ChatGPT Ads account onto a site that fails the

Fit check
We confirm your buyer is on Free or Go before anything is spent. If they live on Plus or Enterprise, we say so
Step 02
Wiring floor
OAI-AdsBot allowed, pixel events carrying their data object, UTMs on every URL. All three verified before launch, because OpenAI's review fails silently

Ad group tests
Each creative you want a real read on gets its own ad group, because delivery inside one group is greedy and there is no

Delayed read
Reporting lags up to 7 hours and conversions attribute over 24 to 48 hours, so decisions wait for the window to close and are judged against Google on

ChatGPT Ads, answered.
Who sees ChatGPT Ads?
Free and Go accounts. Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu are ad-free, and so are under-18 accounts, Temporary Chats, and the ChatGPT Atlas browser. If your buyer is on a paid plan, they will not see the ad. That is OpenAI's published rule, not
Can you target keywords on ChatGPT Ads?
No. There is no keyword targeting, no demographics, no interest audiences, and no dayparting. You get geo, platform, context hints, custom audience include and exclude, and bid multipliers. Context hints are relevance inputs, not exact-match targeting. OpenAI says so in the
Do you have ChatGPT Ads case studies?
Not client ones. We run the channel on this site, which is how we found the 3,930 rejected pixel events and why the CI gate exists. We will not borrow a Meta or Google result and relabel it as
What does ChatGPT Ads management cost?
Paid advertising starts at $7.5K per month with a typical range of $7.5K to $12K, published on our pricing page. Ad spend is billed separately by OpenAI. We manage from $25K per month in monthly media across the
