ChatGPT now has 3 million “paying business users” and is adding new features like meeting notes.

ChatGPT users can now use “record mode” to take notes on meetings, brainstorming sessions, or thinking-out-loud soliloquies, OpenAI announced Wednesday. ChatGPT can also now connect to Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Sharepoint, and OneDrive, and users can query it for answers about their stored spreadsheets and documents — like “What was my company’s revenue in Q1 last year?” or “Tell me how many times I took the ferry on my Italy trip last year.”

“ChatGPT will structure and clearly present the data - and respect your organization’s existing permissions on the user level - from those documents, with citations,” the company wrote in a release.

The recording feature is currently only available for ChatGPT Team users (a subscription plan that will set you back $25 per person per month with an annual subscription of 2+ users). The notes and transcriptions include timestamped citations and action items.

Connections to third-party storage services are available for users of ChatGPT Team, Enterprise, or Edu, OpenAI’s student-focused offering.

The new features are part of OpenAI’s push to corner the market on enterprise AI clients, which are big spenders. It launched ChatGPT Enterprise in 2023, less than a year after the launch of ChatGPT, with clients including Block, Canva, The Estée Lauder Companies, and PwC. Then it followed up with the launch of ChatGPT Team, an option for smaller companies or teams, in January 2024.

OpenAI now has 3 million “paying business users,” up from 2 million in February.

The company is competing directly with tech giants and startups alike for high-paying enterprise AI clients. Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Anthropic are all chasing the same type of business and racing to roll out generative AI features for them, in an industry-wide AI arms race that’s predicted to surpass $1 trillion in revenue in less than seven years.
