How to Claim Your Cleaning Business on ChatGPT (Free, 10 Minutes)

A homeowner in your city types into ChatGPT: “Who’s a good house cleaner near me?” ChatGPT answers with a short list. Is your company on it? And if it is, are the phone number and hours right?

Until this week, you had no say in that. Now you do. On November 10, 2026, OpenAI launched business profiles, and you can claim your cleaning business on ChatGPT for free.

I ran a cleaning company before I built Allclean. I’d have done this the same day, so we started the claim for Allclean this week. Here’s the process, what to write in your profile, and what to fix on your website first.

Your Next Customer May Never Open Google

1.2 billion people use ChatGPT every week. That’s OpenAI’s own number. They ask it what to cook, what to buy, and who to hire.

“Who should clean my house” is one of those questions now. The homeowner doesn’t scroll through ten search results. They get a short list and call one.

Here’s the part most owners miss. ChatGPT probably has a listing for your company already. It builds them from public records. One owner who went through the claim found a profile showing an address he never gave anyone at OpenAI.

So the question isn’t whether you’re on ChatGPT. It’s whether ChatGPT has you right.

A wrong phone number is a call that never reaches you. Old hours are a customer who thinks you’re closed. You already know what a missed call costs. We put it at $80K or more per year for a cleaning company. A wrong listing is the same leak, one step earlier.

The feature is days old. Most of your competitors haven’t touched it yet.

What a Claimed ChatGPT Business Profile Gets You

Three things.

• A verified check. A blue check next to your company name when ChatGPT shows your profile.

• Control over your details. Phone, website, hours, services, photos and a short description.

• Insights. How often ChatGPT mentions you, how many people open your profile, and how many click through to your website, over 7 and 28 days.

What it costs: OpenAI has not announced a fee. A free ChatGPT account works. Ads are a separate paid product, and you don’t need them to claim.

One honest caveat. A profile does not buy recommendations. OpenAI says ChatGPT still decides on its own which businesses to suggest. What you control is accuracy. When ChatGPT mentions you, it gets you right.

Claim Your Cleaning Business on ChatGPT in 5 Steps

Ten minutes of work, plus some waiting.

1. Open Business Hub. Sign in to ChatGPT and go to chatgpt.com/business-hub. Use an account the company controls, like [email protected]. Moving a profile to another account later may not be simple.

2. Search for your company. Find your listing and confirm the address. For now, local businesses can only claim a listing that already exists in the U.S.

3. Verify you own it. You get two options: a code sent by text or call to your business phone, or a DNS record added to your website’s domain. Pick the phone. It takes a minute. It has to be a direct line, not an extension.

4. Wait for the review. OpenAI emails you the decision. One marketer reported approval in a little over two hours. Yours may take longer.

5. Verify your identity. Before you can edit anything, OpenAI asks for a government-issued ID. This is where we are with Allclean’s own claim, so plan for it.

Two things to expect after that.

Insights start empty. They need some activity before they show numbers. Check back in a few weeks, not the next morning.

It’s a beta. Steps and eligibility may change. If you don’t see your company today, look again next month.

Write a 300-Character Description That Books Jobs

The profile form is short. Three fields matter.

Category. Pick “House cleaning service”. Add “Carpet cleaning service” or “Commercial cleaning service” only if you offer them. A category you can’t deliver sends you calls you can’t book.

Description. You get about 300 characters. That’s two sentences. Spend them on where you work, what you clean, what it costs and how to book. Copy this and fill in the blanks:

[Company] provides house cleaning in [cities]: standard, deep and move-out cleaning with flat prices from $[price]. [One thing that sets you apart]. Call or book online 24/7: [phone], [booking link].

Skip “family-owned and passionate about clean homes.” Every company says it. A starting price and a city name are what a homeowner asked for.

Hours. Enter your real service hours. Don’t mark yourself “open 24 hours” unless your crews work nights. ChatGPT will repeat it, and someone will expect a cleaner at 2 AM.

But if your phone gets answered around the clock and customers can book online at midnight, say so in the description. “Call or book 24/7” is true for every company running Kelly. Most of your competitors can’t say it.

Fix Your Website So ChatGPT Can Quote Your Prices

ChatGPT doesn’t stop at your profile. It reads your website too.

If your prices hide behind a “call for a quote” button, ChatGPT has nothing to tell the customer. The company down the road that publishes “standard cleaning from $170” gets quoted. You get “contact them for pricing.”

It’s the same booking funnel problem that makes Yelp and Google Ads so expensive for cleaning companies. The lead shows up, finds no price and no way to book, and leaves.

Four fixes that work on any website:

• Publish starting prices as text. Not in an image. Not in a PDF. “Deep cleaning from $225” on the page is enough.

• List the cities you serve. Spell out the names. “Greater metro area” tells nobody whether you come to their street.

• Match your details everywhere. Same name, address and phone on your website, your Google Business Profile and your ChatGPT profile.

• Let ChatGPT in. One owner found his server was turning away ChatGPT’s crawler while letting Google through. Ask whoever runs your website to check.

We built Allclean booking pages for this. Your services and starting prices are published as plain text. Give an AI assistant the details of a home, such as bedrooms, bathrooms and type of cleaning, and it comes back with a price from your own price list.

No “call us for a quote.” A number, and a link to book.

Answer the Call ChatGPT Sends You

ChatGPT can hand a homeowner your phone number. It can’t pick up for you.

You’re on a job. Or it’s 9 PM. The call goes to voicemail, and the homeowner calls the next name on the list.

Voicemail doesn’t book jobs. Kelly does.

Kelly answers the calls you miss, at any hour. She quotes your exact prices, checks real availability, books the job, and texts the customer a link to confirm and pay. You wake up to a paid booking, not a callback list.

One Allclean customer booked $9,340 in new jobs in Kelly’s first month. Every one came from a call that used to go to voicemail.

Kelly starts at $99 a month and runs on a free Allclean account, so you keep the scheduling software you have. If she doesn’t pay for herself at least 2x, you pay nothing. For the bigger picture, read our guide to AI for cleaning businesses.
