ChatGPT opened an app submission path for developers
OpenAI opened review and publication submissions for apps in ChatGPT, alongside developer guidance and examples.
What happened
OpenAI opened an app submission process for review and publication in ChatGPT and published developer resources for chat-native apps.
Why it matters
Distribution inside an AI product rewards focused workflows that add context or complete an action, not generic wrappers.
For builders
Before building a chat app, define one user intent, one external action and one clear privacy boundary.
Try this
Write a one-page app spec: trigger phrase, needed data, action taken, failure state and user-facing consent copy.
