ChatGPTPlugins ForYour Business
Connect ChatGPT to your APIs, databases, and tools. Enable real-time data access, automate workflows, and unlock AI-powered operations.
Supercharge ChatGPT with Your Data
ChatGPT plugins let you extend ChatGPT with real-time access to your business systems, turning it into a powerful interface for your data and operations.
Real-Time Data Access
ChatGPT can fetch live data from your systems, databases, and APIs. No more outdated information.
Business Integration
Connect ChatGPT to your CRM, inventory, support tickets, analytics, and any business tool.
Custom Actions
Let users book appointments, place orders, update records, and perform actions via natural language.
Enterprise Security
OAuth 2.0, service token auth, encrypted connections, and fine-grained access control.
The Plugin Advantage
Without plugins, ChatGPT is limited to its training data (outdated and generic). With plugins, ChatGPT becomes a dynamic interface to your live systems, capable of fetching real-time data, executing actions, and providing truly personalized responses.
- ✓Access live inventory, pricing, and availability
- ✓Perform actions like booking, ordering, scheduling
- ✓Integrate with internal tools and databases
- ✓Provide personalized, context-aware responses

How ChatGPT Plugins Work
A simple, standards-based architecture that lets ChatGPT discover and call your APIs securely.
OpenAPI Specification
Define your API endpoints, parameters, and responses in OpenAPI 3.0 format. This tells ChatGPT what your plugin can do.
Plugin Manifest
JSON file that describes your plugin: name, description, auth type, API base URL, and legal info.
API Backend
Your server that handles requests from ChatGPT. Can be REST, GraphQL, or any HTTP API.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0, API keys, or service tokens to secure access to your plugin and verify users.
Request Flow
🎯 Key Benefits
- →Standards-based: Uses OpenAPI, OAuth, REST
- →Language agnostic: Any backend, any framework
- →Secure by design: OAuth 2.0, HTTPS required
- →Self-documenting: OpenAPI spec serves as docs

Optimized for ChatGPT
ChatGPT plugins require special API design considerations. We know what works and what does not.
Clear Descriptions
ChatGPT uses your API descriptions to decide when to call your plugin. We write clear, specific descriptions that help ChatGPT make the right decisions.
Minimal Parameters
The fewer parameters ChatGPT needs to collect from the user, the smoother the experience. We design APIs that infer as much as possible.
Rich Responses
ChatGPT presents your API responses to users. We structure responses to be informative, formatted, and ready for natural language.
Error Handling
When things go wrong, ChatGPT needs helpful error messages to explain to users. We provide clear, actionable error responses.
API Best Practices
✅ Good API Design
GET /products?sku=ABC123
Response: {
"product": "Blue Widget",
"stock": 3,
"price": 29.99,
"nextRestock": "2024-03-15"
}Clear, structured, includes all context ChatGPT needs
❌ Poor API Design
GET /api/v1/products/get
Response: {
"data": [3, 29.99, "2024-03-15"]
}Unclear structure, cryptic data, no context
Enterprise Security
OAuth 2.0
Secure authentication
API Keys
Rate limiting & validation
Encryption
TLS 1.3 + data encryption
Secure Your Plugin
Choose the right authentication method based on your use case and security requirements.
No Auth
Public plugins that do not require authentication. Best for read-only public data like weather, news, or documentation.
Service Level
Plugin authenticates with your API using a shared secret or API key. All users share the same credentials.
OAuth 2.0
Users authorize your plugin to access their data via OAuth. Each user has their own credentials and permissions.
OAuth 2.0 Flow
We Implement It All
Bulletproof Quality Assurance
We test at every layer to ensure your plugin works flawlessly in production.
Unit Tests
Test individual API endpoints, authentication logic, and data processing functions.
Integration Tests
Test full request/response cycles, database interactions, and external API calls.
ChatGPT Testing

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about building and launching a ChatGPT plugin.
Q:What is a ChatGPT plugin?
A ChatGPT plugin extends ChatGPT with real-time access to your data and services. When users ask questions in ChatGPT, the plugin can fetch live information from your APIs, perform actions, and return results. Think of it as connecting ChatGPT to your business systems.
Q:How much does it cost to build a ChatGPT plugin?
Simple plugins start at $5K-$10K and take 1-2 weeks. Standard plugins with OAuth and more features cost $10K-$25K and take 2-4 weeks. Complex enterprise plugins range from $25K-$100K and take 4-8 weeks. Contact us for a custom quote based on your needs.
Q:Do I need to be a ChatGPT Plus subscriber?
For public plugins, users need ChatGPT Plus to access the plugin store. For private/enterprise plugins, you can distribute to your team without requiring Plus subscriptions. OpenAI plans to expand plugin access to more users over time.
Q:Can I monetize my ChatGPT plugin?
Yes! You can charge subscription fees, per-use pricing, or earn commissions. Many plugins use freemium models or enterprise licensing. We help you implement payment processing and subscription management as part of the development.
Q:How long does OpenAI approval take?
For public plugins, OpenAI review typically takes 1-7 days. We handle the entire submission process and have a 100% approval rate. Private/enterprise plugins do not require OpenAI approval and can go live immediately after testing.
Q:What if my API is not ready yet?
No problem! We can build the API as part of the project. Many clients come to us with just an idea and a database—we create the API, implement security, and build the plugin end-to-end.
Q:Is my data secure?
Absolutely. We implement OAuth 2.0 or API key authentication, use HTTPS for all connections, and follow security best practices. Your data never goes through OpenAI servers—it flows directly from ChatGPT to your API. We can sign NDAs and comply with HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulations.
Q:Can users perform write operations through the plugin?
Yes! Plugins can be read-only or support write operations like placing orders, booking appointments, updating records, etc. We implement proper authentication and permissions to ensure users can only modify their own data.
Q:What happens if ChatGPT changes their plugin API?
We stay on top of all ChatGPT updates and handle any necessary changes. The first 30 days of support are included, and ongoing maintenance plans ensure your plugin stays compatible with new ChatGPT features and API changes.
Q:Can I test the plugin before it goes live?
Definitely! We provide you access to the ChatGPT Plugin Developer Console where you can test your plugin with real ChatGPT. You will see exactly how it works before we submit for approval or deploy to production.
Q:What if the plugin does not work as expected?
We guarantee the plugin will work exactly as specified. If there are any issues during the first 30 days, we fix them free of charge. We have never had a plugin fail in production—we test thoroughly before launch.
Q:Can I update the plugin after launch?
Yes! You can add new features, modify existing ones, or integrate additional data sources. Updates are straightforward—we just deploy new versions to your API. Public plugins may need re-approval if descriptions change significantly.
