OpenAI rolled out a new workplace-focused feature on Thursday called ChatGPT Work, an automated agent built into its well-known chatbot that can carry out tasks spanning multiple programs and file types.
Running on GPT-5.6, ChatGPT Work is designed to pull information from existing apps, files, and workflows to produce finished products such as documents, spreadsheets, presentations, reports, and websites, according to the company.
The announcement comes as technology companies are increasingly battling for a share of the professional AI tools market, driven by growing demand for automated systems that can handle complex tasks without much human involvement.
The release follows a move by OpenAI competitor Anthropic, which earlier expanded its own enterprise offerings with Claude Cowork — an agent built to independently plan and carry out multi-step tasks.
In addition to ChatGPT Work, OpenAI — which is currently preparing for an initial public offering — also announced a new desktop application and a hosted websites feature that allows users to build and share websites directly through the Work platform.
ChatGPT Work became available Thursday on both web and mobile, with a broader rollout expected over the coming days.
