ChatGPT Enterprise from OpenAI Secures Corporate Conversations
OpenAI has officially introduced ChatGPT Enterprise, a subscription service tailored for businesses, after teasing it in April. The company assures that its AI models will not be trained on any business data or conversations as part of this new offering. OpenAI emphasized in a blog post that their models do not learn from user interactions. Furthermore, the enterprise plan ensures the encryption of business chats both during transmission and storage, and it complies with SOC 2 regulations. OpenAI revealed that several companies, including Block, Canva, Carlyle, The Estée Lauder Companies, PwC, and Zapier, have already tested ChatGPT Enterprise.
ChatGPT Enterprise offers twice the speed of access to GPT-4 (the same model from ChatGPT Pro), but without usage restrictions – and with an enhanced context of 32,000 tokens, allowing the AI model to process up to four times the input/output text compared to the $20 price. – per month Pro level. The business-focused plan also includes unlimited access to advanced data analysis (formerly known as Code Interpreter), which allows teams to quickly analyze massive amounts of data.
The enterprise subscription gives companies a management console that enables mass management of employee access. This includes the ability to create shared chat templates for teams that share common workflows. It also offers companies free credits for OpenAI’s API, which can be used in custom chatbots and other customized AI-generated text. Business customers also get an analytics dashboard where they get “usage data” across their organizations.
With today’s launch for large enterprises, OpenAI says a version for small businesses will come at some point in the future. COO Brian Lightcap told CNBC today that starting with more robust enterprise customers “gives us a little more opportunity to interact with the teams hands-on and understand what the deployment business looks like before we fully open it up.” The company does not disclose pricing publicly, but companies can contact OpenAI to learn more about their options and customize a custom plan. Lightcap told CNBC that pricing “depends on the use cases and size of each company for us.”
