Advertising and Visibility in ChatGPT and AI Assistants
We help brands prepare for paid ads in ChatGPT where OpenAI offers them, improve how they appear in AI answers, and use AI sensibly in day-to-day marketing, without promising access or placements we do not control.
ChatGPT and AI Assistant Advertising: what it covers
Shoppers increasingly ask AI assistants what to buy, which brands to trust and how products compare. OpenAI began testing ads in ChatGPT in the United States in early 2026 and has since opened a self-serve Ads Manager beta in more countries. Availability, formats, targeting and eligibility are set by OpenAI and change often, so the first job is to check what is actually open to your business today.
This page separates four things that often get mixed together. Paid ads in ChatGPT are an official product with limited access. Organic visibility in AI answers depends on your content, structured data and product feeds. AI-assisted marketing means using AI tools for research, creative and analysis. Readiness work is what we do now, so your brand can move quickly if and when ad access reaches you.
We never promise access, placements or launch dates. What we offer is clear advice on where you stand and practical work that pays off across search, AI answers and paid channels: sharper intent research, landing pages that answer real questions, a measurement plan that separates AI referrals from other traffic, and messaging that is ready to test the day an ad account opens.

The challenges we solve
Hype about ads you cannot buy yet
Plenty of advice talks about ChatGPT ads as if every brand can switch them on. In reality access depends on your country, account status and OpenAI's policies, and some topics are excluded. We check your actual position and plan around it instead of selling a placement that may not exist.
Missing from AI answers
When an assistant recommends products in your category and never names you, the cause is usually unclear entity information, thin product data, weak third-party mentions or pages that AI crawlers cannot reach. We find which of these applies and fix it with your SEO and content work.
No way to measure AI traffic
Visits from AI assistants often land in GA4 as referral or direct traffic and get ignored. We set up channel grouping and reporting for AI referrals, track the conversions those visitors complete and keep a log of brand mentions, so you can judge whether the effort is worth it.
Our ChatGPT Ads services
AI advertising strategy
A plain review of whether ChatGPT ads and other AI placements suit your products, margins and markets, and how they would sit alongside Google, Meta and your existing channels.
ChatGPT advertising readiness
We check availability for your market, prepare account details, policies and assets, and set up campaigns in OpenAI's Ads Manager if and when your business has access.
AI-driven audience and intent research
We map the questions people ask assistants before they buy in your category, then turn them into context themes, landing page topics and messaging angles.
Brand visibility in AI platforms
Regular checks of how ChatGPT and other assistants describe your brand and competitors, with a tracked list of mentions, citations and gaps to work on.
Product and service discovery optimisation
Clean product feeds, structured data, clear entity details and crawl access for AI bots, so assistants can find accurate facts about what you sell. This links directly with our SEO work.
Landing page preparation
Pages that answer the specific question a visitor asked an assistant, with clear comparisons, pricing, proof and a fast route to purchase or enquiry.
Conversion measurement strategy
GA4 channel groups for AI referrals, conversion tracking that works with OpenAI's pixel or Conversions API where you advertise, and reporting that separates paid from organic AI traffic.
Creative and messaging strategy
Short, factual headlines and descriptions that suit conversational contexts, plus AI-assisted research and drafting for copy, always reviewed and edited by our team.
Performance evaluation
Quarterly reviews of AI referral sessions, assisted conversions and paid campaign results where available, with a clear recommendation to scale, hold or pause.

How we work
Business & Market Discovery
We learn how your business makes money: your products, margins, customers, competitors, target markets and revenue goals, so every later decision is anchored to commercial reality rather than platform metrics.
Marketing Audit & Research
We review existing campaigns, tracking setup, audience data, ad account history, creative performance and how well your website converts, to find wasted spend, missing data and quick opportunities.
Strategy & Campaign Planning
We choose the right channels, allocate budget between them, and plan campaign structure, target audiences, creative direction and the conversion goals each campaign will be measured against.
Campaign Setup & Launch
We configure campaigns, conversion tracking, landing pages, creatives, audiences and conversion events, then check everything fires correctly before launch so data is reliable from the first day.
Testing & Optimisation
We run structured tests on audiences, keywords, creatives, bidding strategies, landing pages and budget splits, keeping what works and retiring what does not, one clear change at a time.
Reporting & Scaling
We analyse results, highlight new opportunities and report in plain language. When the data is reliable and returns hold up, we scale budgets and expand into new channels, products or markets.
Frequently asked questions
Can any brand advertise in ChatGPT today?
No, as of late 2026 ChatGPT ads are available only in markets OpenAI has opened, through its self-serve Ads Manager beta or its sales team and partners. Ads are shown to logged-in adult users on certain free and lower-cost plans, and OpenAI decides eligibility, so we check your position before planning anything.
Can you promise our ads will appear in ChatGPT?
No, nobody outside OpenAI can promise access, placements or launch dates. OpenAI states that ads are labelled, shown separately from answers and do not change what ChatGPT says, so paid ads are a separate route from being recommended in the answer itself.
How do we appear in AI answers without paying?
You improve the information assistants can find and trust about you. That means clear product and company details, structured data, accurate product feeds, helpful pages that answer buying questions, mentions on reputable third-party sites and allowing AI crawlers to reach your content. This work overlaps heavily with good SEO.
What do you mean by AI-assisted marketing?
We use AI tools inside our own work for keyword and intent research, first drafts of ad copy, creative ideas and faster analysis of campaign data. Every output is checked and edited by a person, and we never publish unreviewed AI content on your store.
Which topics are excluded from ChatGPT ads?
OpenAI keeps ads away from sensitive or regulated conversations, such as personal health, mental health and politics, and does not show ads to users it identifies as under 18. Rules can change, so we review the current advertising policies before preparing any campaign for your category.
Is it worth preparing now if we do not have access?
Yes, because most readiness work pays off immediately elsewhere. Intent research improves search and social campaigns, better landing pages lift conversion from every channel, and measurement for AI referrals shows how much traffic assistants already send you.
