About ChatGPT
ChatGPT is a Chat & assistants tool from OpenAI, launched in 2022. The category-defining chat assistant. ChatGPT remains the broadest, fastest-improving general-purpose AI tool — useful for drafting, analysis, code, and research across nearly every knowledge-work task.
Notable capabilities include GPT-5 access on Plus/Pro, Memory across conversations, and Custom GPTs marketplace. Teams typically deploy ChatGPT for daily research and drafting and code prototyping.
Common trade-offs to weigh: knowledge cutoff varies by model and no native team workspace until Enterprise tier. AIMenta editorial take for APAC mid-market: The default starting point for any individual exploring AI. For enterprise rollout, Team or Enterprise tier is required to keep prompts out of training data.
