Overview

Bring your customer research into ChatGPT. Search your Dovetail workspace, pull docs and customer quotes, and use real research to write PRDs, shape roadmaps, or prepare stakeholder summaries, all from a ChatGPT conversation. ChatGPT is a first-party integration, no manual server configuration or API tokens needed. It uses OAuth, so you just sign in and authorize. ChatGPT is a connected app: each user connects Dovetail to their own ChatGPT account. To start from Dovetail instead, go to Settings → Connected apps, find ChatGPT under MCP connectors, and select Enable. This opens the Dovetail app in ChatGPT in a new tab.

Tips

ChatGPT matches against your workspace, so ask it to list projects first if you’re unsure.
The best results come from chaining search, docs, and highlights together, e.g. “Search for X, then get the full doc, then pull supporting quotes.”
Ask ChatGPT to search only highlights or only docs if results are too broad.
Results return 20 items at a time. Ask ChatGPT to “get the next page” for more.
