OpenAI’s New App Store Could Turn ChatGPT Into an Everything App


A new app store from the creator of ChatGPT invites companies to build custom “GPTs” that add functionality to the chatbot. OpenAI isn’t saying how app builders will get paid.

OpenAI is an unconventional company in many ways, but last November it took a leaf from the standard tech industry playbook: It held a developer conference where CEO Sam Altman urged software makers to build on top of ChatGPT. The way it works is a user goes into an app-specific GPT, such as hiking guide AllTrails, design tool Canva, or Khan Academy’s Code Tutor and makes a query just like they would to the original ChatGPT. Olson, CEO of Consensus, says he understands OpenAI’s plans to charge by usage and engagement, saying it fits with the company’s core business of computing and organizing the information.
