OpenAI’s GPT App Store Showcase
In Brief
Check out OpenAI's newest innovation, the GPT Store—a platform filled with custom applications tailored for ChatGPT users. Here, you can explore a diverse assortment of apps crafted in partnership with external services, including Canva and Zapier AI Actions. Thanks to a subscription model and revenue-sharing plan, developers can profit from their creations while users gain access to various GPT features. Discover what the store offers, its safety protocols, and the exciting future it holds within this vibrant ecosystem.
On January 10, OpenAI publicly launched the GPT Store, a marketplace specifically for unique applications tailored for the most popular ChatGPT tools, simply known as GPTs by the founders. This innovative store is exclusively accessible to individuals who subscribe to a paid ChatGPT plan, starting at $20 a month. These applications are co-developed by OpenAI in collaboration with various third-party platforms, such as Canva, AllTrails, Zapier AI Actions, and more.
Within the ChatGPT app store's community leaderboard, users can locate specific GPTs or browse through popular and trending options, akin to what you'd find in Apple’s App Store. Starting this quarter, creators can monetize their applications through a revenue-sharing model. While OpenAI has kept some specifics under wraps, developers will receive compensation based on user engagement with their applications.
The OpenAI app can be as simple or complex as the developer envisions, and there's no need for prior coding experience. For instance, it could be designed to answer queries based on a curated collection of recipes, or trained on student notes along with textbooks to aid learners in exam preparation. Creating your own GPT involves initiating a conversation, giving it clear instructions, and deciding on its capabilities, such as executing web searches, generating images, or analyzing data.
According to Metaverse Post The introduction of the OpenAI app store was first shared during the company's inaugural developer conference, DevDay, last year. However, its launch was postponed until December, likely prompted by significant management shifts within the company (notably CEO Sam Altman's firing by the board, only for him to return days later with a fresh board in response to investor and employee backlash) that unfolded in November right after the original announcement.
Naturally, the topic of safety has not been overlooked. It’s important to familiarize yourself with the terms of use and the guidelines for this new technology before launching your product in the OpenAI store to ensure it meets the required standards; otherwise, it risks being taken down. A new verification system has been introduced to bolster existing security measures in OpenAI products, incorporating both automated and human checks to ensure compliance with regulations. Users can also report violations. The details surrounding revenue-sharing arrangements remain unclear, potentially affecting the allure of GPTs for aspiring developers who need to secure a ChatGPT Plus subscription.
