FAQ

ChatGPT ad specs, answered

The questions people actually ask.

01

What fields are included in a ChatGPT ad?

OpenAI's current format documentation lists advertiser name, favicon or logo, title, copy or description, landing page, and an image creative. The unit is clearly labeled and appears separately below a relevant response.

02

What is the ChatGPT ad title character limit?

OpenAI's public creative guide recommends concise titles but does not state a numeric maximum on the public page. In 16,639 captured creatives with titles, the observed median is 28 characters and the range is 4 to 236. Observed values are not official limits.

03

How long is ChatGPT ad copy?

Across 16,610 captured descriptions, the observed median is 63 characters, the average is 70.5, and the observed range is 7 to 5000. These are descriptive statistics, not a platform limit.

04

What image size does a ChatGPT ad require?

OpenAI's public best-practices page says images should be simple, relevant, easy to interpret, and aligned with the title and copy. It does not currently publish a numeric image dimension or file-size requirement on that page.

05

What makes a valid ChatGPT ad landing page?

OpenAI says the destination should be relevant, valid, reachable, consistent with the creative, and accessible to OAI-AdsBot and OAI-SearchBot. Advertisers can add their own UTM tracking parameters.

06

Are all ChatGPT ad creatives approved automatically?

No. OpenAI reviews the advertiser, creative, image, and landing page for policy compliance. Misleading, inconsistent, inaccessible, or disallowed content can be rejected.
