- OpenAI is extending its ChatGPT Enterprise service to every employee in the U.S. federal executive branch.
OpenAI for Government announced a partnership with the General Services Administration. For the next twelve months, the government will receive the enterprise version of ChatGPT essentially free of charge. The rollout covers the entire federal workforce, not just select agencies. OpenAI frames the deal as a "transformative initiative" for public sector productivity.
If the tool lives up to its claims, agencies could automate drafting emails, summarizing reports, and answering routine queries. That could shave hours from bureaucratic tasks and lower reliance on third‑party contractors. The move also puts OpenAI ahead of rival providers that have yet to secure a comparable government-wide agreement.
The free year is a foothold; whether the federal government will adopt the service long‑term remains to be seen.
