ChatGPT connectors and apps
MCP connectors that put your data inside ChatGPT — designed, built, secured, and taken through OpenAI’s technical and marketplace review to launch.
OpenAI Select Partner
Ship on the OpenAI platform, with a partner who builds there daily.
Node8 builds ChatGPT connectors, GPT-powered automations, and custom GPTs — and trains the teams who use them. From your first API workflow to a connector approved in the ChatGPT marketplace.
What We Build
Four ways we put OpenAI to work
GPT-powered automations
Production workflows built on the OpenAI API: lead qualification, research and enrichment, document processing, and internal assistants wired into your systems.
Custom GPTs for teams
Purpose-built GPTs on your data and playbooks — from product research assistants to Python and SQL generators that answer data questions without waiting on engineering.
ChatGPT enablement and training
Company-wide training that covers when to reach for ChatGPT versus other tools, how to prompt well, and department workshops built on each team’s real workflows.
In Practice
Recent OpenAI platform work
For an investment research firm, we built and launched an MCP server on Google Cloud that serves research data to AI assistants including ChatGPT — authentication, business logic, and platform review included. In training engagements, product teams learned to generate Python and SQL with ChatGPT and ship custom GPTs over internal docs, and GTM teams automated research and outreach workflows with the OpenAI API.
Why Node8
A partner, not a reseller
OpenAI Select Partner
Node8 is part of the OpenAI Select Partner program — we build on the OpenAI platform daily and stay current as models and product surfaces evolve.
Marketplace experience
We have taken connectors through platform review processes at OpenAI, Anthropic, and Microsoft — submission mechanics, security requirements, and approval timelines included.
From experiment to production
Our engagements end with a system running in production and teams trained to use it — not a proof of concept and a slide deck.
FAQ
OpenAI partnership questions, answered
What does working with an OpenAI Select Partner mean for us?
You work with a team that builds on the OpenAI platform daily and has direct experience with its product surfaces — ChatGPT connectors, custom GPTs, and the API. That shortens the path from idea to a working system and helps avoid dead ends as the platform evolves.
Can you publish our data as a connector inside ChatGPT?
Yes. We build MCP connectors that make your data usable inside ChatGPT, handle authentication and access control, and guide the connector through OpenAI’s technical and marketplace review. One MCP server also serves Claude, Copilot, and other MCP-compatible clients.
Do you build custom automations on the OpenAI API?
Yes. We design and ship production workflows on the OpenAI API — lead qualification and research automation, document processing, classification, and internal assistants connected to your CRM, data warehouse, and internal systems.
Can you train our teams on ChatGPT?
Yes. Our training programs cover ChatGPT alongside Claude and Copilot: company-wide sessions, per-team workshops built on real workflows, custom GPT setup, and adoption measurement with usage baselines and a 60-day metrics report.
How do you choose between OpenAI models and other providers?
By the workload. We benchmark against your actual tasks — reasoning depth, latency, cost, and integration surface — and often combine providers in one system. As a partner across the major AI platforms, we recommend what performs, not what we resell.
