OpenAI May Soon let you Log into Apps with ChatGPT

OpenAI is considering allowing users to sign in to third-party apps with their ChatGPT accounts, according to a web page published Tuesday. The company is currently assessing developer interest in integrating the feature.

ChatGPT is rapidly emerging as one of the world’s largest consumer apps, with around 600 million monthly active users. To build on this momentum, OpenAI appears interested in expanding into other consumer sectors like e-commerce, social media, and personal tech. A possible “Sign in with ChatGPT” feature could position OpenAI to better compete with major tech players like Apple, Google, and Microsoft, who offer streamlined sign-in options for various online services.

Preview Launch of “Sign in with ChatGPT” for Developers Using Codex CLI

Earlier this month, OpenAI introduced a preview of the “Sign in with ChatGPT” feature for developers using Codex CLI, its open-source AI coding tool for terminals. This allowed developers to link their ChatGPT Free, Plus, or Pro accounts to their API accounts. As an incentive, OpenAI provided Plus users with $5 in API credits and Pro users with $50 for signing in through ChatGPT.

OpenAI appears keen on bringing the sign-in feature to a wide range of companies. Its developer interest form requests details about an app’s user base — from small platforms with under 1,000 weekly users to large-scale apps exceeding 100 million. It also asks developers about their current pricing models for AI features and whether they already use the OpenAI API.
