Short answerTypingMind documents a migration from ChatGPT: chat history imports, but Custom GPTs, memories, Projects and knowledge files must be recreated by hand. Instructions become agent system instructions and Actions become plugins or MCP.
| Your GPT | In TypingMind |
|---|---|
| Instructions | An AI Agent's system instructions (plus few-shot examples, welcome message, conversation starters) |
| Knowledge files | Training files (PDF, XLSX, CSV, TXT, placed in the instruction, so they must fit the model's context) or a Knowledge Base (RAG) |
| Actions | Plugins (JSON schema, OAuth 2.0) or MCP servers |
| Model | Any supported model through your own API key |
What to know
- It is a chat app you bring your own API key to; API usage is billed by your provider.
- Sharing creates a link others use to import your agent. The embeddable chat widget was discontinued in June 2026, per TypingMind's docs, so it is mainly for you or your team.
- Pricing: TypingMind pricing.
General process: step by step. See also platforms with official guides.
