ChatGPT Introduces Connectors for Your Workspace

AI is moving deeper into how organizations manage knowledge and meetings.

This week, OpenAI introduced new ChatGPT capabilities designed for enterprises: automated ​meeting note capture​ and ​deep integration​ with business apps like Google Drive, Box, and Notion, helping leaders and teams work faster, with fewer gaps and missed insights.

Meeting Note Recording and Transcription

• Recording audio during live conversations.
• Auto-transcribe and capture notes: Summarizes conversations with time-stamped citations.
• Suggest next actions: AI analyzes the conversation and proposes actionable follow-ups.
• Query meeting notes like a database: Search across past meetings to quickly retrieve decisions or discussed points.
• Turn action items into projects: Push tasks into Canvas (OpenAI’s AI-first workspace for documents and coding).
• Access control: Follows your company’s internal access rules to ensure private data stays secure.

ChatGPT now connects directly to your core work tools:

• Secure connections: Link Google Drive, SharePoint, Box, OneDrive, Notion, Confluence, and more, without complicated IT setup.
• Smart search: Ask ChatGPT to search documents and pull answers from within your connected apps.
• Run deep research: ChatGPT can now research across multiple internal sources, add citations, and generate detailed reports.
• Sync and index: Pre-load important documents to improve speed and accuracy in ChatGPT’s answers.

Here are some examples of how leading teams are already putting these new capabilities to work:

• “Summarize everything we shipped in the last two sprints across PR descriptions, design docs, and spec files from our Google Drive and Confluence.”
• “Compare our feature adoption numbers with industry benchmarks mentioned in internal analyst reports and external sources.”
• “Find the root cause of the outage referenced in yesterday’s post-mortem and list all follow-up actions, citing internal documentation.”

Thought to leave you with: If finding the right document or decision took seconds instead of hours, what would that free your team to focus on?
