Questions

What can the AI do in online-convert.com?

The AI can create conversion jobs, add input files (for example a remote file link) and conversions, start and cancel jobs, and read jobs, inputs, conversions and output files with their download links. It can also list supported conversion types, job statuses and presets, and check your contracts and remaining credits.

Does the AI see my online-convert.com credentials?

No. Your online-convert.com API key is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with only looking up formats and jobs. Creating and starting jobs uses conversion credits, and cancelling a job deletes it, so these tools can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own online-convert.com account (an API2Convert account). Registered users get 30 free conversion credits per 24 hours.

Does converting a file use credits?

Yes. Creating a job that processes right away, or starting one later, uses online-convert.com conversion credits. Registered users get 30 free credits per 24 hours. The AI can check your contracts and remaining credits before it starts a job.
