In this post, we break down what the connector does, why it matters, who benefits, and how to get started — plus what it means for Velocity clients looking to amplify their CRM intelligence.

What Is the HubSpot Deep Research Connector?

The HubSpot deep research connector is a direct integration between HubSpot’s CRM platform and OpenAI’s ChatGPT Deep Research tool. Once enabled, it allows users to run in-depth, natural language queries on their CRM data — with no technical setup on the HubSpot side.

This means users can:

• Test hypotheses and explore patterns in customer behaviour

• Segment high-performing audiences by conversion rate, tech stack, industry and more

• Generate sales nudges, retention strategies, and support forecasts

• Identify churn risks and conversion bottlenecks

Who Gets It?

Access is instant for all HubSpot users who have a paid ChatGPT plan:

• Global (non-EU): Enterprise, Team, Pro, Plus, or Edu plans

• EU: Enterprise, Team, or Edu plans only (due to data privacy requirements)

No need to install anything in HubSpot — you simply activate Deep Research inside ChatGPT, connect HubSpot as a source, and you're ready to go.

Why This Is a Big Deal for Business Teams

This integration goes beyond dashboards and simple reports. It transforms how business units make data-driven decisions in real time.

Marketing Teams

• Identify fast-converting personas based on recent trends

• Segment leads by campaign performance and recommend next actions

• Optimise nurture sequences with real-time data insights

Sales Teams

• Highlight deals most likely to close this month

• Uncover new enterprise expansion opportunities

• Diagnose pipeline friction and suggest improvements

Customer Success Teams

• Flag at-risk accounts and suggest engagement plays

• Understand sentiment trends based on support tickets

• Generate proactive playbooks to reduce churn

Support Teams

• Forecast seasonal surges in support tickets

• Align resources with real-time capacity needs

• Improve triage with AI-generated summaries

How Each Team Benefits from the HubSpot Deep Research Connector

The table below outlines how different business teams can leverage the HubSpot deep research connector to drive performance, efficiency, and strategic insight.

No-Code, No Jargon — Just Powerful Insights

What makes the connector so valuable is its simplicity:

1. Log into ChatGPT and enable Deep Research from the Tools menu

2. Add HubSpot as a source

3. Choose your HubSpot account

4. Open a new chat, toggle HubSpot as a data source, and start querying your data in plain English

HubSpot’s API permissions ensure that users only see data they’re authorised to access, and critically, no customer data is used to train ChatGPT’s models.

Use Cases That Deliver Real Impact

Here are just a few sample prompts that showcase what’s possible:

• “List the top 10 sources of leads in the last quarter and their conversion rates.”

• “Which accounts had a drop in engagement after onboarding? Recommend next steps.”

• “Highlight deals over $50K stuck in the 'Proposal Sent' stage for more than 30 days.”

• “Segment contacts by job title and engagement rate to identify high-intent roles.”

The results can be used to trigger actions directly in HubSpot, from editing workflows to assigning tasks.

FAQs

1. Do I need a developer or IT support to set up the connector?

No. The HubSpot deep research connector is designed for business users. Setup happens entirely within ChatGPT, with no development or HubSpot-side configuration required.

2. Will this integration work with custom objects or fields in HubSpot?

Yes. The deep research connector can access custom objects and properties, provided the user has the appropriate permissions. This makes it highly adaptable to bespoke CRM setups.

3. Is there a cost associated with the connector itself?

The connector is free to use but requires a paid ChatGPT plan. There are no additional fees from HubSpot for accessing the integration.

4. Can I share insights generated through the connector with my team?

Yes. Insights can be copied, exported, or summarised for use in reports, team dashboards, or embedded directly into HubSpot workflows and custom properties.

5. What kinds of data security protocols are in place?

All data access is governed by existing HubSpot permissions. Users can only access data they are authorised to see, and none of the CRM data is used to train ChatGPT models.

6. Is this feature mobile-friendly?

At launch, the deep research connector is only available via the web version of ChatGPT. However, results can be copied or exported to tools that are accessible via mobile.

7. Can I use this for predictive analysis or forecasting?

Yes. By leveraging historical trends and customer behaviour, the connector can assist with predictive modelling, though results should be validated against your business context.

8. Does this replace HubSpot's built-in reports and dashboards?

Not at all. This integration complements HubSpot’s native analytics by offering a more flexible, question-driven exploration of your data.

9. How does this impact HubSpot's API usage limits?

Insights are subject to HubSpot’s standard API usage policies. Heavy usage may count toward daily limits, particularly in high-volume CRM environments.

10. Can Velocity help me build use-case specific prompts or workflows?

Absolutely. Velocity specialises in prompt engineering and workflow integration tailored to your industry, ensuring you get the most from this powerful AI capability.
