<div id="readability-page-1"><div> <p id="speakable-summary">OpenAI offers app integrations in ChatGPT to allow you to connect your accounts directly to ChatGPT and ask the assistant to do things for you. For instance, with a Spotify integration, you can tell it to create personalized playlists that will show up right in your Spotify app.</p> <p>To get started, make sure you’re logged into ChatGPT. Then type the name of the app you want to use at the start of your prompt, and ChatGPT will guide you through signing in and connecting your account.</p>   <p>If you want to set everything up at once, head over to the Settings menu, then click on Apps and Connectors. You can browse through the available apps, pick the ones you like, and it’ll take you to the sign-in page for each one. </p> <p>However, it’s important to note that connecting your account means you’re sharing your app data with ChatGPT. Make sure to review the permissions you’re giving when you’re linking your accounts. For example, if you connect your Spotify account, ChatGPT can see your playlists, listening history, and other personal information. (Sharing this info helps personalize the experience, but if you have privacy concerns, consider whether you’re comfortable with this level of access before connecting.)</p> <p>You can also disconnect any app whenever you want, right from the Settings menu.</p> <h2 id="h-available-apps">Available apps </h2> <figure><img height="383" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Booking_OpenAI.png.jpeg/query-dz02ODA?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="680" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Booking_OpenAI.png.jpeg/query-dz02ODA"/><figcaption><span><strong>Image Credits:</strong>OpenAI</span></figcaption></figure> <h2 id="h-booking-com">Booking.com</h2> <p>This integration with the online travel giant is designed to help travelers, especially first-time visitors in need of suggestions for where to stay.</p> <p>Once you link your Booking.com account, you can ask ChatGPT to find hotels in your preferred city based on your dates and budget. You can also specify how many people are coming and whether you want the hotel near public transport. ChatGPT aims to make this process more intuitive than searching directly on the Booking.com site. Plus, you can be more specific, like searching for options “with breakfast included.” </p> <div> <div>  <p>Techcrunch event</p> <div>  <p><span>San Francisco</span> <span>|</span> <span>October 13-15, 2026</span> </p>  </div> </div> </div> <p>When you find a hotel you like, just open the Booking.com listing to complete your reservation.</p> <h2 id="h-canva">Canva</h2> <figure><img height="383" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Canva-ChatGPT.jpeg/query-dz02ODA?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="680" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Canva-ChatGPT.jpeg/query-dz02ODA"/><figcaption><span><strong>Image Credits:</strong>Canva</span></figcaption></figure> <p>Canva in ChatGPT is a helpful tool for graphic designers and anyone else who needs to generate visual content quickly. Whether it’s for a social media post, a poster, or a slide deck for a presentation, this may be a good way to help kickstart your project and brainstorm ideas. </p> <p>Once you connect your Canva account, you can ask ChatGPT to design something like “a 16:9 slide deck about our Q4 roadmap” or “a fun poster for a dog-walking business.” You can include specifics such as the fonts you prefer, color schemes, formats (like Instagram posts or stories), and exact dimensions. </p>   <p>AI-generated designs are seldom perfect, with occasional distorted images or spelling mistakes. However, some users may find this better than starting from scratch, and they can jump into Canva at any time to tweak their design and make it look just how they want.</p> <h2 id="h-coursera">Coursera</h2> <figure><img height="483" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Demo_Desktop_Oct6_V4-1.gif/query-dz02ODA?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="680" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Demo_Desktop_Oct6_V4-1.gif/query-dz02ODA"/><figcaption><span><strong>Image Credits:</strong>Coursera</span></figcaption></figure> <p>Coursera’s integration is designed to help you quickly discover the best online courses for your skill level.

You can ask it to create a playlist based on your current mood, or just a playlist that only includes tracks by your favorite band. </p>   <p>It can also suggest new artists, playlists, audiobooks, and podcast episodes.
