Use CallForMe in ChatGPT

Short answer: Open CallForMe in ChatGPT's plugin directory (chatgpt.com/plugins, search CallForMe) and add it. It connects without asking for an email or card, and no Developer mode is needed. Ask ChatGPT to call a business; the first real call shows one setup link to add $5.

ChatGPT does not place outbound calls to businesses on its own. CallForMe is listed in ChatGPT's plugin directory, so adding it takes one step and gives ChatGPT that ability inside a normal chat.

Install in ChatGPT

  1. Open CallForMe in ChatGPT, or go to chatgpt.com/plugins and search for CallForMe.
  2. Add it. It connects right away; there's no email, no form and no card.
  3. In a new chat, just ask: "Use CallForMe to call the free demo pizza place and ask what time they close." The first time, ChatGPT asks to allow CallForMe. Choose Always allow so it can keep checking on the call without asking each time.

This works on a free ChatGPT account. Add it once at chatgpt.com in a browser and it shows up in the ChatGPT apps too.

Adding it by URL instead

Adding a custom server by URL needs a paid ChatGPT plan (Pro or a Business, Enterprise or Edu workspace, where an admin may need to allow it; Free accounts use the directory listing above). If you'd rather add the server yourself, go to chatgpt.com/plugins (some plans still ask you to turn on Developer mode first, under Settings, then Security and login), click +, choose Create custom MCP server, then Create MCP App. Name it CallForMe, use the Server URL https://callforme.tel/mcp with OAuth, tick I understand and want to continue, then Create. ChatGPT marks custom servers "elevated risk"; the directory listing above skips that.

Signing in from ChatGPT

Adding CallForMe from the directory (or creating the app with OAuth selected) connects it right away. There's no email, no form and no card. That creates your CallForMe account.

If ChatGPT doesn't show a Connect step

If your version of ChatGPT can't do OAuth sign-in, use one of these instead:

  • https://callforme.tel/mcp/open needs no sign-in. Your agent gets a setup link in each new session unless it saves the account_key it receives.
  • A personal URL, https://callforme.tel/mcp/k/<your key> as the app's MCP server URL with No authentication, using a key you create on the account page.

Tips for ChatGPT

  • ChatGPT asks you to approve write actions. Placing a call is one, so expect a confirmation before it dials.
  • Ask ChatGPT to "keep checking the call until it ends" so it keeps polling get_call and can answer the business's questions.
  • To call several places, say "call around": "Ask the pharmacies near 75024 what time they close tonight and give me a table." ChatGPT uses call_around and follows the batch with get_batch.

Your first real call in ChatGPT

The first time ChatGPT places a real call, CallForMe sends back a one-time setup link and ChatGPT shows it to you. Open it, check the call it describes, and add $5. The call starts by itself a few seconds later. Go back to ChatGPT and say "done" so it follows the call and tells you the result. Turn on auto-reload (one click right after paying) and the balance tops itself up, so you do this once. Details in how setup links work.

Try it in ChatGPT

Ask for something you actually need called ($1 if answered, nothing if not). Paste this into ChatGPT, with your own business and details:

Call my dentist, Parkside Dental, and ask to be put on the cancellation list for a cleaning in the next two weeks. Weekday mornings work best. My name is Sam Lee.

Open this in ChatGPT: it fills the box and waits for you to send it.

Want to hear one first? Demo lines are fictional and free:

Call Maple Street Pizza at (469) 770-7412 and book a table for 2 tonight at 7 under Alex. Ask for the confirmation number, then tell me how it went.

Questions

Does ChatGPT have a built-in way to call businesses?

Not on its own. CallForMe adds it as a plugin from ChatGPT's directory.

Do I need a paid ChatGPT plan?

No. Apps from ChatGPT's plugin directory, like CallForMe, work on any plan, including Free. Only adding a custom MCP server by URL needs a paid plan (as of October 30, 2026).

Why does ChatGPT ask me to confirm before calling?

ChatGPT treats tools that change things in the world as write actions and asks first. That's a good check before a real phone call goes out.
