Ads in AI chatbots: where you can buy today

You can buy ads inside AI chatbots and AI answers in three main places today: ChatGPT ads (sponsored cards below ChatGPT answers), Google’s AI Overviews and AI Mode (through your Search campaigns) and AI app networks such as Gravity (sponsored suggestions in chat apps, coding assistants and AI search). Each buys, targets and reports differently.

Facts verified 4 steps

1. ChatGPT ads

A self-serve channel of its own, bought by impression, click or conversion goal with a USD 25 daily minimum, and targeted with context hints.

Where ads appear
Below a ChatGPT response (one ad unit); multi-image ad format being tested during image generation[1]
Minimum daily budget (self-serve)
USD 25 per day (varies by currency, e.g. EUR 15, GBP 15, CAD 25, AUD 25, JPY 2,500, INR 725)[2]
Context hints
Ad-group descriptions of relevant products, use cases or needs; not exact-match keywords; up to 2,000 per ad group[3]

2. Google AI Overviews and AI Mode

Not a separate product: Search, Shopping and Performance Max campaigns are eligible automatically, with no separate targeting or reporting.

Eligible campaign types
Existing Search, Shopping and Performance Max campaigns are automatically eligible; no new campaign or separate budget needed.[4]
Placement-only targeting or opt-out
Not possible: you can't target only AI Overviews/AI Mode or opt out of them separately from Search.[4]

3. AI app networks

Networks place ads inside many smaller AI apps. Gravity is self-serve with no minimum; others, such as Koah, Imprezia, Thrad and Kontext, differ in how you buy and what they publish.

Where ads appear
Chat apps, coding assistants and IDEs, consumer AI apps and AI search. Gravity names no specific publisher apps.[5]
Minimum spend
No minimum; start with any daily budget. A payment method is required before a campaign can launch.[6]

4. Running them together

Each channel has its own account, billing, creative rules and reports. Admux buys all three from one prepaid balance, splits a campaign into one leg per channel, and screens each leg against that channel’s rules.

Channels
ChatGPT ads, Google Search (including eligible AI placements) and the Gravity network[7]
Billing
Prepaid USD balance; each campaign reserves its full budget when submitted[7]
Creative
You supply it; Admux screens it against each channel’s rules and never generates ad content[7]

Questions

Which is the easiest to start with?

Gravity has no minimum budget. ChatGPT ads start at USD 25 a day in Ads Manager. Google’s AI placements need no new campaign if you already run Search, Shopping or Performance Max.

Do ads influence what the chatbot says?

OpenAI says ads in ChatGPT run on separate systems and advertisers can’t shape responses. Google labels ads in AI answers “Sponsored”.
