OpenAI Launches ChatGPT Work

The agent can pull data from Slack, Microsoft Teams and Google Drive, and OpenAI said it will add scheduled cloud tasks.

  • On Thursday, OpenAI unveiled ChatGPT Work, an agent powered by GPT-5.6 designed to execute complex tasks across applications and files, marking the company's latest push into workplace automation.
  • OpenAI is consolidating its desktop apps by merging Codex and ChatGPT into a single platform while sunsetting the Atlas browser this September, shifting focus from proprietary browsers to agentic desktop tools.
  • ChatGPT Work integrates with Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Google Drive, featuring cloud-based "Scheduled Tasks" that run without requiring an open laptop, enabling complex workflows across mobile, web, and desktop.
  • The launch positions OpenAI to compete directly with Anthropic's Claude Cowork, which gained traction for autonomous multi-step task execution among enterprise knowledge workers.
  • OpenAI is also launching a Chrome extension bringing ChatGPT directly into the browser sidebar, eliminating the need for a dedicated proprietary browser and making the platform accessible across existing browser ecosystems.
