ChatGPT Work

Think of ChatGPT Work as a work-issued ChatGPT license that a company hands out to its employees. It looks similar to the ChatGPT app individuals use, but it's designed so an entire team can share the same tool while the company manages projects, skills, and conversation history at an organizational level. It's a bit like using a company-issued laptop instead of your personal one at the office.

Recently, a feature appeared that automatically syncs work between Codex, OpenAI's dedicated coding tool, and ChatGPT Work. Preset repetitive task workflows or conversation context built in Codex can be carried straight over to ChatGPT Work, saving the trouble of recreating the same setup every time you switch tools.

This move fits with OpenAI's push to grow ChatGPT from a single chat window into a platform used across a company's entire workflow. It's easy to confuse with other similarly named enterprise plans like ChatGPT Business, so it helps to keep in mind that OpenAI is expanding its enterprise offerings into multiple tiers.

Articles describe it this way: "On August 11, OpenAI developer accounts rolled out a feature that syncs work between ChatGPT Work and Codex." Here, Codex is a separate coding assistant tool, while ChatGPT Work refers to the enterprise ChatGPT plan. It's a different product from the individual ChatGPT Plus subscription, so it shouldn't be mixed up with news like free student campaigns.
