Connect ChatGPT to Ecobot
ChatGPT supports custom MCP connectors on paid plans. Add Ecobot once from a desktop browser and the connector syncs to the iOS and Android apps. ChatGPT prefers MCP tools shaped like search / fetch — Ecobot's search_supplement_content tool works everywhere; richer tools surface most reliably in Deep Research mode and developer contexts.
