OpenAI Business Hub Puts ChatGPT Visibility Insights in Brand Hands
· 22h ago · Originally reported by Adweek
OpenAI launched a Business Hub that gives brands visibility into how they appear in ChatGPT, positioning OpenAI as both gatekeeper and measurement provider for generative engine optimization (GEO). The Adweek piece also touches on Meta Muse's agentic traffic growth and CEO departures.
Why it matters
As AI assistants become a discovery channel, whoever controls visibility data controls the emerging 'GEO' market — similar to how Google shaped SEO. Brands will need to understand a new optimization layer with a single vendor as referee.
