CHATGPT HITS $100 MILLION IN AD REVENUE AND IS OPENING SELF-SERVE ACCESS IN APRIL

Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

ChatGPT generated over $100M in annualized ad revenue just 6 weeks after launching its ad pilot program. Less than 20% of eligible US users currently see daily ads. The platform now hosts more than 600 advertisers and plans to open self-serve access in April, potentially expanding to Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Since around 85% of Free and Go tier users are eligible for ads, the current revenue represents only a fraction of the platform's total advertising capacity.
