Connect Profound to ChatGPT
Give ChatGPT governed access to Profound’s 61 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up
Add Profound to ChatGPT in four steps
Admins approve the server once. Everyone in ChatGPT then gets it through the same governed connection.
- 1
Add Profound to Runlayer
Profound isn’t in the Runlayer catalog yet, so an admin adds it by its MCP server URL.
Adding a connector manually - 2
Connect ChatGPT to Runlayer
Admins publish the Runlayer Plugin and its skill to the whole ChatGPT organization. With direct tool listing turned on for your deployment, Profound’s 61 tools show up in ChatGPT’s own tool list.

Sign in to Profound
Sign in the way Profound requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in ChatGPT
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what ChatGPT exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Profound call from ChatGPT passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, ChatGPT as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Compliance API import (available)
OpenAI Compliance Logs Platform imports ChatGPT web chats for review.
Managed browser extension (available)
Managed Chrome, Edge, and Firefox deployments can monitor supported web-chat activity and apply prompt-time controls where the surface permits it.
Native enforcement adapter (not available)
Runlayer has no device-side adapter for ChatGPT yet, so control happens at the gateway.
