Why connect YouTube Ads to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT only knows what you paste into it, so its answers are only as fresh as your last export. Connected through Lemonado, it reads your YouTube Ads video ads, view rate, watch time and conversions, so it can check whether YouTube lifts branded search with today's numbers.

  • Your whole YouTube Ads account

    Video campaigns and ads, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Quartile completion, synced from YouTube Ads automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "YouTube or Meta video?" use YouTube Ads and Google Ads, Meta Ads at once.
