We just launched something today, which is Plugins Insights. It will allow anyone to come to your site and use their connected Plugins, and so you see only your data on that site.
Claire Vo (0:10)
When you share this across the team, do they get different data in their sites than you get?
Kath Korevec (0:15)
They'll be looking at the exact same site, but they're going to see content based on what their team is.

And then you don't have to worry about API keys and all this stuff, you just get that magically connected. So if you are looking to build something in ChatGPT, in Codex and you're like, I need the Notion API or I need the Slack API. I like finding out what these magic incantations are.

My brain works in different ways than other people and I might just want a different view of Google Calendar for the day or for the week. I might be going on a business trip and I just want things organized differently. And so I'll build a site for that week and then I'll throw it away at the end of the week.

What are other ways you can use the infrastructure side of sites that you think is interesting and like most people wouldn't presume?
Welcome to How I AI today here at OpenAI Dev Day. I'm here with Kath, Product Lead for Sites. And I was showing her some of my sites earlier. And we are sites twins in a lot of ways. So I'm really excited for Kath to show us what sites are, how she uses them across work. We'll start with work and then we'll get to progressively less useful, more interesting.

That sounds great.
Okay, so I'm gonna take you to a less colorful site that I built. Okay, so a couple of different things. So Sites works obviously for work. It also works for a whole bunch of really fun things. We've been using it at OpenAI for a year, a little bit over a year. We launched it two months ago.
And we internally have just kind of seen it explode. And we used it actually for all of the slides that you saw today that were on screen during the keynote. That was a ChatGPT site. We're using it for all different kinds of things. I'm gonna show you what you're seeing here is an incident command overview that my team, the Sites team uses. And I will just mention this is demo content. So don't over index on it a bit. I kind of had to scrub it because it's incident content. So we do have kind of a replica of this, but I rebuilt this site so that I could show you kind of what it does. So what I did with this, we just launched something today, which is Plugins Insights, which Sam talked about at the keynote. And what that does is it will allow anyone to come to your site and use their connected plugins. And so you see only your data on that site. And this is available for enterprise workspaces.
So what happens is for this site, when you log in, it will actually ask you to approve your connections. And so I have this hooked up to Notion and Slack. And so it will go in, and it's also hooked up to my calendar. And so it will go in and look through all of my data and then ask me to approve all of my connectors. And it actually looks at which Slack channel I'm coming from and approving. And so I approve my site's private, my site's feedback, all of my site's Slack channels. And so it makes the assumption that I'm on the site's team. And so it says something like, okay, you're on the site's team, I'm going to show you all of the site's content. And it names the site, the site's incident command. And then what it does is it takes a timeline of all of the incidents that are happening at that time. And the reason why I built this is because I'm a product manager. And I spend a lot of my time with the team, but I also spend a lot of my time in meetings. And all over the place. And I don't have time to really dig in with a team on incidents, nor do I want to. I kind of want to stay in the background and not have to bug them and say, like, hey, what's going on with this incident? I want them to solve it without me getting in their way. And so this just gives me a really cool way of seeing what's going on, following along in the run book, and seeing what's happening down to the minute. And so it gives me that timeline. I can click into all of these and see, like, okay, what is going on, I can see who is addressing this. It also pulls in all of the people on the team that are working on this incident, and it also pulls in all of our tools. And so I had it from Notion go through and pull in, like, what are our run books and how do we respond? What are the guides, et cetera? So this will actually open up the run books and guides and things in Notion if I want to. So that's just one way that we're using plugins insights. There's a whole bunch of different ways we manage our team out of office calendar through this. And we manage this one, we manage fun stuff like sharing music and stuff like that.
