How to check a site for the ChatGPT ads tag

  1. Open the site in Chrome and open DevTools (⌥⌘I on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows), then the Network tab.
  2. Reload and filter for bzrcdn.openai.com. A request to it (or ads.openai.com) means the tag is live on that page.
  3. Not there? It may only fire on conversion pages, or sit inside Google Tag Manager. Search the container’s tags (or the gtm.js response) for bzrcdn.openai.com.

What is bzrcdn.openai.com?

It serves OpenAI Ads measurement pixel (oaiq.min.js) — the tag advertisers add so ChatGPT ads can measure ad clicks and conversions on their own site. Its presence means a site has set up ChatGPT Ads measurement; it does not tell you how much, or whether, they are currently spending.

Open the site in Chrome, open DevTools → Network, reload, and filter for "bzrcdn.openai.com". A request to it means the tag is live on that page. If the site uses Google Tag Manager, the tag can also sit inside the container and fire only on certain pages.
