ChatGPT Ads hits $1B ARR; Ads Manager expands
OpenAI says ChatGPT Ads reached a $1 billion annualized revenue run rate in under 200 days after launch, with tens of thousands of advertisers. Starting 31 Aug, advertisers can buy ChatGPT ads directly via Ads Manager across India, Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa; Israel is not on the official self-service country list. Ads sit alongside subscriptions, enterprise, and API revenue, and fund an ad-supported free tier for more than 1 billion weekly active users.
