🔗 Resources
 • ngrok Setup: https://ngrok.com/

Resources that were previously in Discord have been moved here → ailabspro.io
Video code: V22

In this video, I’ll walk you through exactly how to build your own ChatGPT App using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the same tech powering these built-in tools. You’ll learn how to:
 • Build an MCP server from scratch using Express
 • Connect it to APIs like Google Places or The Movie Database
 • Run it locally and expose it using ngrok
 • Register and test it directly inside ChatGPT
 • Publish and iterate on your app before the App Store goes live

We’ll cover two complete workflows — one where you build your own MCP, and another where you use existing ones — plus I’ll share my personal prompt templates that make the whole process repeatable and fast.

With ChatGPT now reaching over 800 million users, this is your chance to get ahead before the App Store launches in just a few months. Whether you want to build productivity tools, custom AI assistants, or visual widgets, this tutorial shows how to do it step-by-step.
