ChatGPT can now connect to your personal apps to mimic writing style By Mayank Parmar September 7, 2026 06:36 AM 0 OpenAI appears to be testing a new "Writing Style" feature for ChatGPT that can learn how you write by looking at examples from your connected apps. OpenAI lists Slack under messaging, Google Drive and Notion for documents, and Gmail for email.
How ChatGPT can now connect to your personal apps works
Once configured, ChatGPT could reference the way you naturally write across those services when drafting new content, rather than requiring you to repeatedly explain your preferred tone or paste examples into a conversation. It sounds similar to Claude Styles, but goes further with connected apps Anthropic previously offered a similar personalization feature called Styles, which let users upload or paste writing samples and then generate a custom style based on their communication patterns.

Why ChatGPT can now connect to your personal apps matters now
OpenAI's experiment appears to take a different approach by letting ChatGPT reference writing that already exists inside connected services. See the full write-up from BleepingComputer via the source link for quotes and complete context.
Who ChatGPT can now connect to your personal apps changes things for
That could give ChatGPT a much larger set of real examples, including how you write emails compared with messages or longer documents. OpenAI has confirmed it's testing Writing Style, but we don't know when it'll roll out to users widely.
What to watch after ChatGPT can now connect to your personal apps
Once attackers have valid credentials, only 37% of their actions are blocked Overall prevention scores can hide what happens after initial access. Once attackers are using valid credentials, prevention drops sharply.The Blue Report 2026 measures defenses technique by technique across 338 million simulations run in customer production environments.
Developer Action Items
- ☐ Verify the claim on the official OpenAI / Anthropic / Claude page (or BleepingComputer), not from this recap alone.
- ☐ Name the surface that moved — API, policy, model, hardware, or commercial terms — before you Slack the thread.
- ☐ Assign one owner a day to read the primary material and decide: this-sprint, this-quarter, or noise.
- ☐ Do not change production on day-one coverage. Watch the vendor changelog and one independent write-up first.
