🧠 A new paradigm: apps inside the conversation

OpenAI has redefined the concept of "application."
With theApps SDK, developers can create experiences integrated within ChatGPT, allowing users to perform real actions-such as making reservations, purchases or consulting information-without leaving the chat.

In practice, software becomes dialogue: no longer buttons or forms, but conversations that generate actions.

💬 Reflection for SMEs.

Enterprises that understand this transformation can fit in At the exact moment when the purchase intention arises.
A local small business, artisan, or consultant may be featured in ChatGPT at the time the user is looking for a solution, Reducing the distance between demand and conversion to zero.

💬 What does "conversational" mean in modern marketing

In the context of ChatGPT, "conversational" means creating useful and natural interactions.
The user no longer navigates between pages, but converses with an assistant who understands the context and acts.

Practical example:

"Find a Japanese restaurant near me" → built-in app shows three options → user makes reservations directly in the chat.

🎯 Impact on marketing

This type of interaction shortens the conversion funnel.
No more need for landing pages, forms or external bots: everything happens at the point of maximum attention.
For SMEs, this is an opportunity to convert in real time and create more fluid and human customer experiences.

⚙️ The key principles of ChatGPT Apps according to OpenAI

  1. Natural: Integrate into the chat flow.
  2. Smart: Understanding the user's context.

  4. Responsive: respond quickly.
