<p id="speakable-summary" class="wp-block-paragraph">OpenAI is getting serious about courting enterprise users. On Tuesday, the AI lab <a href="https://openai.com/index/codex-for-every-role-tool-workflow/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">released a new set of capabilities for Codex</a>, meant to expand the agentic tool’s uses in the workplace.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Together with the new tools, the company released <a href="https://cdn.openai.com/pdf/the-next-era-of-knowledge-work.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">an internal report</a> on how Codex is being used for knowledge work, finding its uses go far beyond software engineering.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“Codex now has more than 5 million weekly active users, up more than 6x since the launch of the desktop app in February,” reads <a href="https://openai.com/index/codex-for-knowledge-work/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">a blog post introducing the report</a>. “While developers remain the largest user group, knowledge workers now represent about 20 percent of users and are growing more than three times as fast.”</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To further court those users, OpenAI released a set of six plug-ins aimed at specific jobs: data analytics, creative production, sales, product design, equity investing, and investment banking. Available from <a href="https://developers.openai.com/codex/plugins" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">within the Codex app</a>, each of the new tools bundles integrations, instructions, and context to allow Codex to approximate a specific job.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like any AI tool, the plug-ins will grow more effective with user customization, but they’re meant to be effective tools out of the box.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The new tools come after a similar push for agentic plug-ins from Anthropic, which <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/24/anthropic-launches-new-push-for-enterprise-agents-with-plugins-for-finance-engineering-and-design/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">launched its enterprise agents program</a> in February. (A more specific set of finance-oriented agents <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/sectors/technology/articles/anthropic-targets-financial-services-ai-135747094.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">launched in May</a>.) With its traditional consumer focus, OpenAI has been slower to court enterprise customers, only introducing plug-in support for Codex <a href="https://arstechnica.com/ai/2026/03/openai-brings-plugins-to-codex-closing-some-of-the-gap-with-claude-code/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">in March</a>.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Together with the plug-ins, OpenAI introduced a new Sites feature, which allows Codex to output its work product as a hosted interactive website, instead of just a local file. As part of that system, OpenAI is partnering with Wix, Base44, Replit, Lovable, Figma, and Emergent — although the company plans to develop a larger partner ecosystem to support the service.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A new Annotations feature will also allow users to designate a specific part of a document or file within Codex, allowing for more specific commands and context operations.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The new enterprise features come just three weeks after OpenAI launched a new joint venture for enterprise clients, dubbed <a href="https://openai.com/index/openai-launches-the-deployment-company/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">the OpenAI Deployment Company</a>. The venture includes more than $4 billion in funding from global investment firms, with the aim of integrating OpenAI tools more deeply into businesses around the world.</p>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“AI is becoming capable of doing increasingly meaningful work inside organizations,” OpenAI chief revenue officer Denise Dresser said in a statement at launch. “The challenge now is helping companies integrate these systems into the infrastructure and workflows that power their businesses.”</p>
