Founded in 2015, OpenAI has grown from a non-profit laboratory into a premier frontier enterprise valued at over $150 billion, serving over 300 million weekly active users.

OpenAI develops leading multimodal foundation models and reasoning paradigms, including GPT-4o, the o-series reasoning models (o1, o3), Sora text-to-video, and the Operator autonomous agent. Its developer API platform powers hundreds of thousands of enterprise applications, software copilots, and interactive AI solutions across all industries.
