OpenAI expands ChatGPT into a Super‑App with 62 integrated tools

OpenAI announced that ChatGPT will evolve from a simple chat interface into a Super‑App that bundles 62 applications and 110 industry‑specific capabilities. The platform combines chat, code generation (Codex) and the Atlas browser, adding plugins for data analysis (Snowflake, Databricks), design (Figma, Canva), sales (Salesforce, HubSpot) and finance (Moody’s, FactSet). The move is aimed at boosting profitability as the company prepares for an IPO slated for May 2026, with Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan as advisers and a valuation around €852 billion. OpenAI reports roughly €2 billion in monthly revenue but forecasts a €14 billion loss for the 2026 fiscal year, emphasizing growth in its business‑customer segment, which currently accounts for 40 % of revenue and is targeted to reach 50 % by year‑end. The strategy follows a shift announced in March 2026 to phase out side projects like the video tool Sora. The expansion comes amid heightened competition from Anthropic, which filed its own IPO plans in June 2026 with a valuation of €965 billion and a focus on autonomous software development.
