24 ChatGPT Agent Examples Worth Copying
Every team’s first question about ChatGPT Workspace Agents is “what would we actually build?” Below are 24 concrete agent examples organized by team function, with the connectors each one uses, the real-world impact teams see, and a note on which are good first builds. These are all workflows I’ve either shipped or scoped for real US teams on ChatGPT Business or Enterprise. Copy shamelessly.
How to read these examples
Each example below lists the agent’s name, what it actually does, the connectors it needs, and the impact I’ve seen from real teams running it. Where the example maps to one of my six productized agents, I’ve linked to the full spec — same build at a fixed $1,000 price. If you see something close to what your team needs but not quite right, that’s normal — a scoping call turns “close to right” into an exact spec.

Which example should you start with?
The right first agent depends on where the biggest time-drain is on your team. But most teams benefit from the same 3 starter picks:
- Lead Outreach Agent if you have an SDR or sales team with inbound volume. ROI is obvious within 1 week.
- Support Triage Agent if support is the bottleneck. First-response time drops immediately.
- Weekly Metrics Reporter if leadership is the audience. Low-risk, high-visibility, builds org trust in agents.
