OpenAI just launched the ChatGPT App Store, and DeGPT is ready.
On December 17, 2025, OpenAI unveiled a new way for developers to integrate tools directly into ChatGPT. Now you can clean and format AI-generated text without switching apps or copying to external tools.
The problem: AI text doesn't paste well
You've been there. ChatGPT gives you a perfect answer, but when you try to paste it into an email, Word document, or Slack message, you get:
- Bold asterisks that don't render: **important point**
- AI filler phrases: "Sure! Here's..." and "I hope this helps!"
- Markdown headings that show as raw text: ### Step 1
- Broken bullet points and weird spacing
- Hidden characters like zero-width spaces that cause formatting issues
- Smart quotes and em-dashes that look wrong in some apps
Every day, millions of people manually clean up ChatGPT output before using it. That's time wasted on formatting instead of actual work.
The solution: Just say 'DeGPT it'
With DeGPT in the ChatGPT App Store, you can clean any response in seconds:
Get any response from ChatGPT
Ask your question as usual. ChatGPT responds with markdown formatting.
Say "DeGPT it" or "Clean this for [destination]"
DeGPT processes the text with destination-optimized settings.
Copy and paste anywhere
Get clean, professional text that pastes perfectly into any app.
Try these commands:
- "DeGPT it"
- "Clean this for email"
- "Format for Word"
- "Remove the filler"
- "Make this copy-paste ready"
17+ destination presets - one click to perfection
Different apps need different formatting. DeGPT includes presets optimized for every major destination:
Email (Outlook & Gmail)
Removes AI filler, strips markdown, converts to clean HTML with proper paragraph spacing. Your emails look professional, not AI-generated.
Perfect for: Client emails, follow-ups, cold outreach, support responses
Word & Google Docs
Preserves smart quotes and typographic elements that Word handles well. Tables convert properly. Lists maintain structure.
Perfect for: Reports, proposals, documentation, meeting notes
PowerPoint & Google Slides
Clean, concise text without formatting characters. Removes links (you'll add them in the presentation). Ready for bullet points.
Perfect for: Presentation content, talking points, executive summaries
Slack, Teams & WhatsApp
Compact lists (no extra spacing), clean text without markdown. Each platform gets formatting it can actually render.
Perfect for: Quick messages, team updates, sharing information
LinkedIn, X (Twitter) & Facebook
Clean, professional text for social posts. No markdown artifacts. Keeps links for CTAs and sharing.
Perfect for: Thought leadership, announcements, engagement posts
Code, GitHub & Jira
Code preset: Extracts ONLY code blocks, removes all explanations. GitHub: Preserves markdown for PRs and issues. Jira: Clean text for tickets.
Perfect for: Developers copying code snippets, writing documentation, filing tickets
AI Prompt (Claude, Gemini, etc.)
Removes AI boilerplate for clean input to other AI tools. ASCII punctuation for maximum compatibility. Flattens links to text format.
Perfect for: Multi-AI workflows, prompt chains, automation pipelines
What DeGPT removes (and why it matters)
Every transformation serves a purpose. Here's what DeGPT cleans and why:
| What's Cleaned | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| AI filler phrases "Sure!", "I hope this helps!" | Screams "I used AI" - unprofessional in client communication |
| Bold/italic asterisks **bold**, *italic* | Most apps don't render markdown - shows raw asterisks |
| Heading markers ## Heading | Hash symbols appear as literal text in email/Word |
| Zero-width spaces Invisible Unicode chars | Cause copy-paste bugs, search failures, display issues |
| Smart quotes → straight " " → " " | Some systems can't handle curly quotes (especially code) |
| Em-dashes → hyphens — → - | ASCII-safe for maximum compatibility across platforms |
Privacy-first design
DeGPT processes your text with privacy as a core principle:
- In-memory only: Text is processed and immediately discarded - never stored or logged
- No third-party sharing: Your content never leaves the processing pipeline
- Optional PII masking: Hide emails, phone numbers, and addresses before sharing
- Custom term masking: Define company-specific terms to redact automatically
DeGPT is designed for professional use. We don't need your data - we just format it.
Real examples: Before and after
Email: Client follow-up
BEFORE (raw ChatGPT)
Sure! Here's a professional follow-up email for you:
Hi **John**,
I wanted to follow up on our meeting—specifically regarding the **Q4 roadmap** and next steps.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Best,
Sarah
I hope this helps! Let me know if you'd like me to adjust anything.
AFTER (DeGPT - Email)
Hi John,
I wanted to follow up on our meeting - specifically regarding the Q4 roadmap and next steps.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Best,
Sarah
Code: Extract function only
BEFORE (raw ChatGPT)
Sure! Here's the function you requested: ```javascript function calculateTotal(items) {return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);}``` This function takes an array of items and returns the sum of their prices. Let me know if you need anything else!
AFTER (DeGPT - Code)
function calculateTotal(items) {return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);}
Why the ChatGPT App Store changes everything
Before the App Store, cleaning AI text meant:
- Copy from ChatGPT
- Open another tool or website
- Paste and process
- Copy the result
- Finally paste where you need it
Now with DeGPT in ChatGPT:
- Get your ChatGPT response
- Say "DeGPT it"
- Copy and paste
That's it. No context switching. No extra tabs. The cleaned text appears right in your conversation, ready to copy.
