ChatGPT Ads

The way people search is changing. Hundreds of millions now turn to ChatGPT for recommendations, comparisons and advice before they ever open a search engine — and OpenAI has now opened ChatGPT up to advertisers. ChatGPT Ads puts your business in front of them at the exact moment they’re asking for help.

Be the answer, not just a result

Instead of competing for a click among ten blue links, your business can be part of the conversation itself — surfaced when someone is actively asking ChatGPT for a recommendation in your category.

Get in early, before the market catches up

ChatGPT Ads only opened to self-serve advertisers in 2026 and only reached the UK in August 2026. Fewer businesses are bidding today than will be in a year’s time — early movers typically get more attention for less spend.

Clearly labelled, brand-safe advertising

Every ad is marked as sponsored and kept separate from ChatGPT’s own answers. Ads never appear next to sensitive topics like health or politics, and advertisers never see anyone’s actual conversations — so your brand shows up in a safe, well-governed environment.
