ChatGPT ads are a new auction. Cogny reads it weekly.
Cogny reads OpenAI Ads through the MCP — campaigns, ad groups, chat cards, insights by country and device — finds context hints that attract the wrong conversations and cards that get impressions without clicks, and creates a ticket per fix. Approve in tickets — Cogny pauses, re-bids or re-budgets directly through the OpenAI Ads MCP.
cogny --replaces
FLOWSame outcome. Two very different processes.
- Open ads.openai.com. Read impressions, clicks and spend per campaign.
- Guess which context hints matched which conversations.
- Compare CTR across chat cards by eye.
- Decide what to pause, where to move budget.
- Open each ad group. Change bids and status — by hand.
- Cogny connects to OpenAI Ads with an Ads API key — one-time.
- Pulls campaign, ad group and ad insights (daily, by country and device) on a schedule.
- Finds insights: cards under 1% CTR, hints with no clicks, budgets that never deliver, pixels that stopped firing.
- Creates a ticket per proposed action.
- You approve in tickets.
- Cogny executes through the OpenAI Ads MCP — pause/resume, bid and budget changes.
- Tracks which tickets moved CPC and conversions. Smarter every week.

ASKThe questions we usually get on the demo call
Are ChatGPT ads and OpenAI Ads the same thing?
Yes. OpenAI named the product OpenAI Ads and it runs at ads.openai.com, but the ads themselves render as sponsored chat cards inside ChatGPT conversations — which is why most people search for "ChatGPT ads". Same ad account, same Advertiser API, same MCP in Cogny.
How are ChatGPT ads targeted, if there are no keywords?
Targeting is a campaign-level geo block plus context hints on each ad group — short free-text phrases describing the conversations the ad should appear in. The relevance model reads those hints together with the chat card's title and body, so Cogny audits hints and card copy as one unit rather than separately.
Does Cogny replace OpenAI Ads?
No. Cogny connects to OpenAI Ads and adds an AI analyst on top — you keep using OpenAI Ads for everything you do today.
Does Cogny make changes automatically?
No — Cogny creates a ticket for every proposed action, you approve in tickets, then Cogny executes the approved ticket through the OpenAI Ads MCP. Nothing ships without you signing off.
Does Cogny write copy or creative?
No. Cogny does not write ad copy, email bodies, post content, image creative or rewrite existing copy. Cogny’s execution is limited to structural changes — segments, tags, metadata, internal links, redirects, scheduling assets you’ve already drafted, status changes (pause/resume/archive), and code-level PRs via Cogny Code.
Does Cogny actually get smarter over time?
Yes. Every approval and rejection is a signal. Cogny tracks the outcome of each executed ticket (did the deal close, did the ranking recover, did the segment lift revenue) and tunes its proposals to your business — so noisy or irrelevant tickets fall off and the high-signal ones become the default.
