OpenAI announced ChatGPT Work on July 10, 2026, an agent function that merges the coding agent Codex into ChatGPT. Powered by GPT-5.6, it can create documents, slides, spreadsheets, and web apps by connecting to apps like Slack and Google Drive. The desktop app is available now for macOS and Windows, with rollout to Plus and Business users within days.
The ChatGPT Work desktop app, now available for macOS and Windows, integrates the Codex coding agent into the same interface, allowing users to switch between chat, general work, and software development from a single app. The feature uses GPT-5.6, OpenAI's latest frontier model, which has enhanced reasoning for multi-step tasks. Users can connect Slack, Google Drive, SharePoint, and other tools via plugins, and ChatGPT automatically determines which data sources to reference. Work progress can be monitored, and users can redirect the agent mid-task. The rollout begins with Pro, Enterprise, and Edu users, with Plus and Business users to follow in coming days.
