Self-serve was reported to be opening to Indian businesses around launch, with dates that differ by source, so check your own account. If you already run Google Ads or Meta Ads in-house, you may be able to run a small ChatGPT test yourself using our readiness guide and testing plan.

An agency helps most when you lack capacity, need creative and landing-page work, or want independent measurement.

Partner status and what to verify

Coverage of the launch named WPP and Omnicom as first agency partners, and described the arrangement as non-exclusive. We have not seen a public list of certified agencies in India. If an agency claims a partnership or certification, ask for written proof and confirm with OpenAI.

Ktech Media Solutions does not claim to be an OpenAI partner. We offer paid media readiness reviews and landing-page work.

Questions to ask before you hire

• ☐ What exactly have you run on ChatGPT Ads, for whom and for how long?
• ☐ Can I speak to a client, and see anonymised reporting?
• ☐ Who writes the ads and who approves claims?
• ☐ How do you track outcomes beyond clicks?
• ☐ What do you charge: fee, percentage of spend or both?
• ☐ Who owns the ad account, data and creative?
• ☐ What is the exit process and notice period?
• ☐ What happens when an ad is rejected?

How agency fees usually work

• Percentage of spend: simple, but it rewards higher spend.
• Fixed retainer: predictable, but should map to defined work.
• Setup fee plus management fee: common for new platforms.
• Performance-linked: be careful, since outcome definitions matter.

We have no verified India fee benchmark for this platform, so we do not quote one. Compare at least two proposals and insist on the ad account being in your name.

Red flags

• Guaranteed leads, sales or ROAS.
• Claimed certifications they cannot document.
• Case studies with no named client or context.
• Pressure to commit a large budget quickly.
• Refusal to give you account access and raw reports.

Before any spend, check the policy and brand safety guide and your eligibility.

A sensible way to begin

1. Run a readiness review of landing pages and tracking.
2. Agree a capped test with a clear stop rule.
3. Review results with your own analytics.
4. Decide to continue, adjust or stop.

Ktech Media Solutions can help with steps one and two, and with Google Ads and Meta Ads, which remain the proven channels.
