OpenAI has unveiled a significant enhancement to ChatGPT, enabling seamless interaction with a variety of popular applications, including Spotify, Canva, Figma, and others. This development allows users to engage with these services directly within their ChatGPT conversations, streamlining workflows and enhancing productivity.
Integration Details:
As of October 6, 2025, ChatGPT users across Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans—excluding those in the European Union—can access this feature in English. The initial rollout includes integrations with Booking.com, Canva, Coursera, Figma, Expedia, Spotify, and Zillow, tailored to the regions where these services operate.
Spotify Integration:
Users can now link their Spotify accounts—both Premium and Free—to ChatGPT. By initiating prompts with Spotify, users can request podcast recommendations, playlist creation, and more, based on specific genres, moods, or artists. Sten Garmark, Spotify’s Senior Vice President and Global Head of Consumer Experience, commented on this collaboration:
> Spotify’s vision has always been to be everywhere you are. By bringing Spotify into ChatGPT, we’re creating a powerful new way for fans to connect with the artists and creators they love conversationally, whenever inspiration strikes.
Canva Integration:
The integration with Canva empowers users to transform text documents into various visual formats such as presentations, pitch decks, and posters. By uploading a file and providing specific instructions, ChatGPT collaborates with Canva to produce the desired visual content.
Figma Integration:
With Figma’s integration, users can convert rough sketches or ideas into polished diagrams and designs. For instance, by providing a basic sketch and prompting ChatGPT with Figma, turn this sketch into a workable diagram, the AI collaborates with Figma to generate a refined design.
Travel Planning with Expedia and Booking.com:
The integrations with Expedia and Booking.com facilitate efficient trip planning. Users can refine search results using natural language, view options on interactive maps or carousels, and make informed travel decisions—all within the ChatGPT interface.
Apps SDK and Developer Access:
In conjunction with these integrations, OpenAI has introduced a preview of its new Apps SDK. Built on Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), this toolkit enables developers to create custom integrations with ChatGPT. While currently in preview, broader third-party developer access is anticipated later this year.
Future Prospects:
OpenAI’s initiative to integrate ChatGPT with various applications signifies a move towards creating a more interconnected and efficient digital ecosystem. By allowing users to interact with multiple services through a single conversational interface, OpenAI aims to enhance user experience and productivity.
