OpenAI said Wednesday that more than 3 million businesses now pay for ChatGPT, up from 2 million in February, highlighting the rapid uptake of generative AI in the workplace. Chief Operating Officer Brad Lightcap told CNBC the company expects to book about $12.7 billion in revenue this year. To serve the expanding customer base, OpenAI used a livestream to debut a suite of workplace tools. New pre-built and custom “connectors” let ChatGPT pull and analyze data kept in applications such as Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, Outlook, Teams, Gmail, GitHub, HubSpot, Linear and SharePoint while respecting existing user permissions. The integrations are available to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise and Edu users, with deeper research capabilities rolling out in stages. The company also introduced “record mode,” which records meetings, produces near-instant transcripts and organizes follow-up actions. Businesses can try the ChatGPT Team plan for $1 for the first month, and larger customers will have access to a new credit-based pricing system designed to align costs with usage. Separately, OpenAI said a lightweight version of its Memory feature—which allows the chatbot to retain information across sessions—is being extended to free-tier users, broadening access to a capability previously reserved for paying subscribers.
