OpenAI has quietly rolled out powerful new integrations for ChatGPT Pro users, expanding its capabilities with direct connections to Canva, Notion, HubSpot, and custom connectors. The updates, available to Pro subscribers outside the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, and the UK, let users pull, search, and work with data and content from these platforms without leaving ChatGPT.
The Canva and Notion integrations allow seamless interaction with creative assets, documents, and notes through chat-driven search and research tools. HubSpot integration, part of OpenAI’s Managed Connector Platform (MCP), enables Pro users to extract insights, summaries, and customer data directly from HubSpot’s CRM tools. Custom connector support lets businesses link their internal tools, creating tailored pipelines to bring critical data into ChatGPT for instant processing and analysis. These additions build on earlier integrations with Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and other productivity services, further turning ChatGPT into a central productivity hub.
Meanwhile, attention is shifting toward the highly anticipated GPT-5 release. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has confirmed the model is “coming soon,” with reports pointing to an early-to-mid-August 2025 launch. GPT-5 is currently in its final evaluation and safety-testing phase and is expected to deliver significant advancements in factual accuracy, multimodal capabilities (spanning text, images, and audio), and user-level customization.
Industry insiders also expect smaller GPT-5 variants, such as “mini” and “nano,” optimized for specific enterprise and API-based use cases. Together with these new integrations, GPT-5 could significantly enhance ChatGPT’s role as an all-in-one AI assistant for businesses and creators worldwide.
