What is a ChatGPT App?

ChatGPT apps are custom-built applications that live inside the ChatGPT interface. They respond to natural language prompts and can embed interactive UI elements directly within the chat, blending conversation with intuitive interfaces. These apps allow your brand, service, or data to be seamlessly integrated into users’ ChatGPT sessions, opening up new opportunities for engagement and functionality.

Built on OpenAi’s Apps SDK and Model Context Protocol (MCP) framework, ChatGPT apps can be used for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Booking Services
  • Advanced Search Functionality
  • Content Generation
  • Product Recommendations

What exactly is a ChatGPT app and how is it different from a chatbot or API integration?

How long does it take to build a ChatGPT app?

It depends on complexity. A minimal viable app might take 6–8 weeks; a richer feature set or enterprise integration could take several months. This timeline includes design, development, testing, and submission phases.

Can the app access my internal systems / databases?

Yes, with proper API integration and security layers. We can architect middleware or connectors so your internal systems are exposed securely (and only what’s needed) to the app logic layer.

For users to log into their existing account they have with you requires an authorisation server which supports a common protocol such as OAuth.

How is monetisation handled?

OpenAI plans to support monetisation models and introduce features like Agentic Commerce Protocol (for instant checkout) in future. OpenAI We can help advise or integrate monetisation flows (e.g. gated premium features, subscription unlocks, transaction fees). Monetisation will be different for each brand, it could be by simply having an app you start to drive awareness of your brand and traffic to your site.

Will the app continue working if OpenAI changes their SDK or APIs?

We build with modular, maintainable architecture to adapt to version changes. We also monitor OpenAI’s developer updates and can support migrations or upgrades when needed.
