ChatGPT Ads is introducing new campaign management and measurement features as the advertising platform expands into Brazil and Mexico, giving marketers greater control while adding more automation to campaign optimisation.

Advertisers can now choose a new Maximize results bid strategy. The option allows ChatGPT Ads to automatically set and adjust bids based on the selected campaign goal, aiming to generate as many results as possible within the available budget.

The change reduces the need for advertisers to manage individual bids manually. Instead, they select a campaign objective and allow the platform’s automated bidding system to optimise towards that goal.

Advertisers also have more control over where their campaigns appear. A new Eligible platforms setting allows them to select supported surfaces, including the iOS app, Android app or Web. This could help advertisers manage campaigns differently where conversion rates, customer value or user behaviour vary between platforms.

ChatGPT Ads Manager is also adding 1-day view-through conversion reporting at the campaign, ad group and individual ad levels.

A view-through conversion is counted when a user converts within 1 day of seeing an eligible ad, without a qualifying ad click receiving credit for that conversion.

This means advertisers may see conversions attributed to ChatGPT Ads even when those conversions did not come directly from clicks. As a result, marketers will need to distinguish between click-through and view-through performance when assessing campaign results.

Advertisers can also connect ChatGPT Ads with WorkMagic to view campaign performance alongside other advertising channels. The integration can send conversion signals back to OpenAI through the Conversions API, giving advertisers another way to share outcome data with the platform.

The combination of automated bidding, platform-level targeting, view-through attribution and conversion signal integrations gives advertisers more tools to manage and measure campaigns.

However, the changes also make performance evaluation more important. Advertisers will need to compare the new Maximize results strategy with more controlled bidding approaches and assess how much reported performance comes from newly available view-through conversions.

With the latest updates, ChatGPT Ads is becoming more automated and measurable while expanding its reach into additional markets across Latin America.
