On October 21, 2025, OpenAI released ChatGPT Atlas, a browser with ChatGPT deeply integrated. Atlas integrates conversations and search results on the new tab page, offers sidebar and in-form collaboration, and supports importing existing bookmarks, passwords, and history. Officials say Atlas is now available globally on macOS for Free, Plus, Pro, and Go users, with a beta available for Business. Administrators can choose to enable Atlas for Enterprise and Edu, with other platforms coming soon.
Atlas emphasizes greater control and security: browser memory is optional, with visibility toggled in the address bar and the ability to view, archive, or clear it in settings. Model training using browsing content is disabled by default, but users can opt in through data controls. Agent mode (preview), now available for Plus, Pro, and Business plans, allows users to perform web page tasks within the browser on their behalf. However, it is subject to certain limitations: it cannot run code, download files, or install extensions within the browser, and it can operate in a logged-out mode to mitigate the risk of sensitive data exposure.
