What you'll learn

Understand what a ChatGPT App actually is

Choose a set of capabilities the model calls mid-conversation, not a replica of your existing product.

Recognize good-fit vs. poor-fit use cases

Use OpenAI's "Know, Do, Show" framework and discuss real examples.

Ask the right scoping questions to ensure success

Before you build an app: Does it need conversation? Can it complete in-chat? Is it something ChatGPT can't already do?

Know the three display modes for ChatGPT Apps

OpenAI recommends inline cards, carousels, and fullscreen - we'll discuss when each makes sense for your use case.

Why this topic matters

ChatGPT Apps let third parties extend what ChatGPT can do, but they're not for every product or feature. Before getting started, you need to know what makes a great app, what works inside a conversation, and how to spot ideas that won't fit. This lesson gives Product Managers and business leaders the foundations to evaluate opportunities and ask the right questions.
