Deploy ChatGPT Canvas sites with VibeDeploy
Canvas is ChatGPT's side-by-side editor for writing and refining a page's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It does not host or publish anything. VibeDeploy takes the code out of Canvas and puts it online at your own domain, with EU hosting and automatic SSL, in under a minute.
Why VibeDeploy for ChatGPT Canvas
Canvas is a great place to iterate on a single page: you watch the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript change next to the chat and refine it line by line. But Canvas is an editing surface, not a host. There is no live URL, no custom domain, no SSL, and no way for a real visitor to open what you built. To go live you need somewhere to actually serve the files.
Canvas edits, VibeDeploy publishes
Canvas is where you shape the page; VibeDeploy is where it goes live. Copy the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript out of Canvas and VibeDeploy serves it on real infrastructure with HTTPS, so you get a link you can share.
Copy it over, or let ChatGPT deploy via MCP
Two honest paths. Paste or drag the code from Canvas into the VibeDeploy dashboard, or connect VibeDeploy's MCP connector in ChatGPT so the assistant ships the page directly and hands back the live URL. No API wrangling either way.
Your domain, in the EU
Point your own domain at the page with automatic Let's Encrypt SSL. Every site is served from a Belgian data centre, so your visitors' data stays in the EU and a DPA is available on every paid plan.
How to deploy a ChatGPT Canvas site
- 1
Build your page in Canvas
Open Canvas in ChatGPT and ask for a page: a portfolio, a landing page, a one-page menu. Canvas shows the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript next to the chat so you can refine it visually until it looks right.
- 2
Get the code out of Canvas
Copy the full HTML (with its inline or linked CSS and JavaScript) from the Canvas panel, or use the download option to save it as a file. This is the static front-end output VibeDeploy serves.

Start a free trial and open the dashboard

Or let ChatGPT deploy it over MCP
Prefer to stay in the chat? Add VibeDeploy's MCP connector in ChatGPT, then say "deploy this Canvas page to VibeDeploy." The assistant calls the deploy tool, uploads the code, and replies with the live URL.
{ "name": "vibedeploy", "url": "https://mcp.vibedeploy.be/mcp" } - 5
Add a custom domain (optional)
In site settings, add your domain and point a CNAME at VibeDeploy. SSL provisions automatically, usually within 60 seconds. Until then your page is live at name.vibedeploy.be.

Common questions about deploying ChatGPT Canvas
Does Canvas publish my page on its own?expand_more
No. Canvas is an editing surface inside ChatGPT for writing and refining a page's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript side by side. It does not host or publish anything and gives you no public URL. VibeDeploy is the piece that takes that code and puts it online.
How do I get the page from Canvas to VibeDeploy?expand_more
Two ways. Copy the HTML (with its CSS and JavaScript) out of Canvas, or download it, and paste or drag it into the VibeDeploy dashboard. Or connect VibeDeploy's MCP connector in ChatGPT and ask the assistant to deploy the Canvas page for you. Both end with a live link.
What kind of pages from Canvas can I deploy?expand_more
Canvas produces front-end code, so anything static or single-page works: a plain HTML page, a small multi-file site, or simple client-side JavaScript. VibeDeploy serves static and SPA output. Anything that needs a live server backend is out of scope.
How is this different from the ChatGPT page?expand_more
The ChatGPT page covers deploying any site ChatGPT builds in a normal conversation. This page is specifically about Canvas: the side-by-side editor where you shape one page's code visually. The hosting destination is the same VibeDeploy; the starting point is the Canvas surface.
Where is my page hosted?expand_more
On VibeDeploy's infrastructure in Belgium. Your page and your visitors' data stay in the EU, which matters for GDPR and for European customers. A DPA is available on every paid plan.
