Scorpion, a digital marketing and technology provider for local businesses, has officially partnered with OpenAI as an authorized technology partner supporting advertising within ChatGPT. The collaboration integrates ChatGPT ad management capabilities directly into Scorpion’s proprietary marketing ecosystem.
The partnership allows local businesses to create, deploy, and optimize ad campaigns across ChatGPT from their primary Scorpion management dashboard. The integration provides small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) direct access to ChatGPT’s audience of more than 900 million weekly active users and 50 million consumer subscribers as they research products, compare local services, and make purchasing decisions.
Leveling the Playing Field for Local Enterprise Ad Adoption
Historically, emerging digital ad channels have favored resource-rich national brands, while local businesses faced barriers due to complex onboarding processes, disparate software platforms, and isolated vendor management systems. By embedding ChatGPT ad management into its existing interface, Scorpion enables local service providers to bypass these traditional delays and adopt conversational AI advertising from day one.

We’re honored to be a technology partner and are ready to see the impact ads in ChatGPT can have for local businesses.”
