Refresh CustomGPT with every new file or email
The value of your CustomGPT agent comes from the knowledge it holds. But knowledge gets stale quickly. You don't want your AI agent still referencing month-old pricing or last year's product specs. Instead, keep CustomGPT fresh by automatically pushing your files and communications directly into its knowledge base.
Whenever your team uploads a new file to Google Drive or Dropbox or receives an email in Gmail, Zapier can forward that content into CustomGPT. Even RSS feed updates, like blog posts or news items, can be automatically connected to CustomGPT's memory. Have a sales or customer support team that holds a lot of meetings? Zapier can also auto-upload transcripts from AI meeting tools like Fireflies.ai, so those discussions are instantly searchable in CustomGPT.
With these integrations running quietly in the background, your CustomGPT agent will keep up with your team's newest files, messages, and ideas. It's just like having another person on the team.
