OpenAI has quietly rolled out an App Store inside ChatGPT, transforming it from a simple AI chatbot into a platform that can run third-party apps directly inside conversations.
With this update, ChatGPT can now go beyond answering questions. It can help users take actions like browsing services, managing tasks, and interacting with real-world tools — all without leaving the chat interface.
From a product and developer perspective, this is a significant move. It opens the door to AI-first app experiences and reduces the need for traditional app discovery models.
I wrote a detailed, easy-to-read breakdown covering:
• How the ChatGPT App Store works
• What users can do today
• Why this matters for developers
• Where this platform could be heading next

Would love to hear how developers feel about building inside AI platforms instead of traditional app stores.
