How to upload your Brand Ready skill in ChatGPT

If you use ChatGPT, uploading your Brand Ready skill is the best way to give it richer access to your brand system from the start.

Once installed, ChatGPT can use your skill when it is relevant, helping it generate outputs that are more aligned to your brand colours, assets, structure, and guidelines.

Before you start

You will need:

•   your brand-skill.zip file

•   a ChatGPT plan that supports Skills

•   a workspace where Skills are enabled

As of April 2, 2026, OpenAI says Skills are available in beta on ChatGPT Business, Enterprise, Edu, Teachers, and Healthcare plans, and workspace admins can control access. If you do not see Skills in your account, it may be because your plan or workspace settings do not currently support them.

Step 1: Open the Skills area in ChatGPT

In ChatGPT:

1  Click your profile icon

2  Select Skills

This opens the Skills page, where you can view installed skills, create new ones, or upload one from your computer.

Step 2: Upload your Brand Ready skill

On the Skills page:

1  Click New skill

2  Choose Upload from your computer

3  Select your brand-skill.zip file

4  Wait for ChatGPT to process the upload

Upload the ZIP file as it was delivered to you. Do not unzip it first.

Step 3: Install the skill

Once the upload is complete, ChatGPT will show you the skill details.

Review the name and description, then install it to your account.

After installation, your Brand Ready skill will appear in your Skills list and can be used straight away in ChatGPT.

Step 4: Start using it

Once installed, you can start using your Brand Ready skill straight away.

A simple first prompt might be:

Create a proposal using my brand skill

You can also try prompts like:

•   Create a one-page report using my brand skill

•   Draft a presentation outline using my brand skill

•   Create a branded document using my brand skill

•   Generate a concept for a one-page brochure using my brand skill

In some cases, ChatGPT may recognise that the skill is relevant and use it automatically. But if you want to be explicit, you can simply mention your brand skill in the prompt.

What to expect

A Brand Ready skill gives ChatGPT more to work with than a normal prompt alone.

Depending on your setup, that can include:

•   your logo

•   your brand colours

•   template references

•   formatting rules

•   your brand guidelines, if you shared them with us during setup

Because of that, skill-based outputs can take longer than a normal chat response. That is normal. In many cases, it may take a few minutes rather than a few seconds.

If you do not see Skills in ChatGPT

If the Skills option is not visible, the most likely reasons are:

•   your plan does not currently support Skills

•   your workspace admin has not enabled them

•   you are using a personal ChatGPT account without access to the beta feature

If that happens, you can still use your branded Word template as your main workflow.
