# ChatGPT

> Add ScoutLayer as a custom app in ChatGPT's developer mode to pull live contact and company data into any chat.

<Note>Requires a ChatGPT workspace with developer mode or custom MCP apps enabled.</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable developer mode">
    In ChatGPT, go to **Settings → Apps → Advanced settings** and enable developer mode.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a custom app">
    Create a custom app using the ScoutLayer MCP endpoint as its server URL:

    ```text theme={null}
    https://scoutlayer.io/mcp
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize">
    Complete the ScoutLayer authorization flow and review the exposed tools.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Use it in a chat">
    Enable the app in a chat and ask ChatGPT to call a ScoutLayer tool.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Try it

Once the app is enabled, ask ChatGPT a natural-language question and it calls ScoutLayer for you:

> Find the best contact email for stripe.com, along with their LinkedIn and any phone numbers.

ChatGPT returns live data straight from the company's own site — public emails, phones, social profiles, and company details — each fact linked back to the page it came from, so nothing has to be taken on faith.
