What you'll learn

Know what goes into a ChatGPT App submission

What’s a good app name, tool descriptions, privacy policy, test account, verified organization, logos and screenshots.

Recognize the common rejection reasons so you can flag risks

Avoid vague tool descriptions, requesting unnecessary data or misleading metadata.

Understand the current platform constraints

Today, you can only sell physical goods, no ads, restricted to a general audience (13+), limited data you can collect.

Map out a realistic timeline from idea to published app

Including what gets locked after approval and when you'd need to re-submit.

Why this topic matters

OpenAI reviews every ChatGPT App before it goes live. Many submissions get rejected for avoidable reasons. This lesson gives PMs and business leaders an overview of the process, the platform constraints that affect what you can build, and the pitfalls that delay approval. You'll leave knowing what to expect and what to ask your dev team to take advantage of this new distribution opportunity
