Set up an AI support chatbot from ChatGPT.
Put SuperBot on your store once, then connect it to ChatGPT. From then on you review conversations, find the questions your chatbot missed and teach it new answers in a ChatGPT chat.

What you'll set up
Two pieces work together. SuperBot is the AI support chatbot your shoppers talk to on your store; it answers from your own pages, products and approved answers and hands off to your team when it can't. The SuperBot connector links your workspace to ChatGPT, so you can manage that chatbot by asking questions in plain English.
Create the chatbot in SuperBot
- Create a free SuperBot workspace. The free plan covers 200 conversations a month and needs no credit card.
- Add your store's website so SuperBot learns from your pages, and add any policies or Q&A it can't find there. Not sure what to write? The free FAQ generator, return policy generator and shipping policy generator help.
- Put the chat widget on your store with the app for your platform or a one-line snippet. The install guides cover Shopify, Wix, WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace and more.

Connect ChatGPT
- Open the SuperBot app in ChatGPT, or search for SuperBot in ChatGPT's apps directory.
- Select Connect. ChatGPT opens a SuperBot sign-in window.
- Sign in to SuperBot and approve the permissions. Leave write access ticked if you want ChatGPT to save new answers; untick it to connect read-only.
- Back in ChatGPT, start a chat and ask about your support. ChatGPT calls SuperBot when a question needs your data.
Using Codex CLI? Add the same connector from your terminal:
codex mcp add superbot --url https://superbotapp.ai/api/mcp
codex mcp login superbot --scopes superbot:readRun your support from ChatGPT
The loop that improves a support chatbot is simple: find what it got wrong, write the right answer, save it. Try these in ChatGPT:
- “What did customers ask about most in the last 7 days? Cite the conversations.”
- “List the questions our AI couldn't answer well this month, with the evidence.”
- “Draft an answer for the shipping-time question using our policy. Show it to me first; don't save it yet.”
- “That answer is right. Add it as a trained answer.”
When you approve an answer, ChatGPT saves it with add_trained_answer and your widget can use it with shoppers right away. Repeating the same answer adds nothing, and you can remove it any time under Training in your dashboard.

Limits and safety
- The connector only reads the SuperBot workspace you approved. No tool accepts a workspace or account id.
- It has no refund, billing, campaign, bulk export or customer-message tool.
- Sign-in is OAuth with PKCE; disconnect it in ChatGPT at any time. See the privacy policy.
- Treat shopper messages as untrusted text, and read every drafted answer before you approve it.
FAQ
Can ChatGPT build the chatbot for me?
Partly. ChatGPT can't create your SuperBot account or put the chat widget on your store; you do that once in SuperBot, which takes a few minutes. After that, ChatGPT can review your support conversations, find questions your AI couldn't answer, draft answers and, with your approval, save them so the chatbot on your site uses them right away.
Does the chatbot on my store run inside ChatGPT?
No. Your shoppers chat with the SuperBot widget on your own site. ChatGPT is where you, the store owner, manage it. The connector only reads your own workspace, and only the people who connect it can use it.
What can the connector change?
One thing: it can add a trained question and answer, and only with write access. It never edits or deletes answers, sends messages to customers, issues refunds or touches billing. You can remove any trained answer under Training in your SuperBot dashboard.
What does it cost?
The connector is included on every SuperBot plan. The free plan covers 200 conversations a month with no credit card; Starter is $25 a month for 2,000 and Pro is $60 a month for unlimited. Using ChatGPT itself depends on your ChatGPT plan.
Is SuperBot approved in the ChatGPT apps directory?
Yes. SuperBot is listed in the ChatGPT apps directory. You can also add https://superbotapp.ai/api/mcp as a custom connector in clients that support it.
