Yelp has entered into a licensing agreement with OpenAI to integrate its database of local business information directly into ChatGPT. Under the partnership, the chatbot will surface Yelp’s reviews, ratings, and photos in response to user queries about local services and establishments.
The collaboration also plans to incorporate Yelp’s "Request a Quote" feature, which will eventually allow users to contact local service providers for pricing and availability without leaving the ChatGPT interface. The deal reflects a broader trend of content providers seeking to maintain relevance as consumers increasingly turn to generative AI models instead of traditional search engines.
