New channel
ChatGPT Ads opened to self-serve in May 2026 with no minimum spend, matching on the meaning of a live conversation rather than keywords. Early enough to matter — we run it as a real pilot, with a written decision rule, not a leap of faith.
New channel — early enough to move before it gets crowded
ChatGPT Ads is paid placement inside ChatGPT conversations, matched to what someone is actually asking rather than keywords typed into a search box. STRYON Growth runs ChatGPT Ads for service businesses, among the first agencies working in the channel.
People describe a whole problem in full sentences before they ever open a search engine — a richer intent signal than any keyword.
In most local service categories the auction is still thin.
This is an addition, not a replacement. Without a proven baseline you won’t be able to tell whether it worked.
Conversational context suits considered purchases and multi-step decisions far better than impulse buys.
In OpenAI Ads Manager, done properly the first time.
Ad-in-contextInstalled for measurement before spend, not after.
Ad-in-contextBuilt on semantic context and exclusions, not keywords.
Ad-in-contextAgainst your existing channels, with a written decision rule.
