Distribution build guide · ChatGPT nano
Building a ChatGPT nano for US insurance distribution
Two parallel series. The plain-language series (seven pages, one minute each) answers “what is this and where do I start?” without assuming code. The technical reference (six pages) has the architecture, build walkthrough, guardrails, and publishing details. Both framed around US insurance distribution specifics: producer licensing, state solicitation rules, rate-filing compliance, PII handling, DOI audit readiness.

Reality check on timing

- End of afternoon, NOT realistic: a publicly available nano. Review takes days; publishing needs a privacy policy, a demo account, screenshots, and a stable production server.
