The company OpenAI is evaluating (via TechCrunch) the potential integration of a "Login with ChatGPT" feature in various applications, which could significantly enhance its footprint in the digital services industry.
Currently, OpenAI is assessing developer interest in this feature, which would enable users to access multiple services using their ChatGPT account. This could provide a competitive alternative to similar solutions from Apple, Google, and Microsoft, which already offer quick access to third-party applications.
ChatGPT is rapidly gaining popularity, boasting around 600 million active users per month. OpenAI aims to leverage this success to expand its operations in online shopping, social media, and other services.
Previously, the company launched a beta version of the ChatGPT login feature for developers in the Codex CLI, an AI-based programming tool. Developers can connect their ChatGPT Free, Plus, or Pro accounts to the API. Plus and Pro plan users were offered additional bonuses in the form of API credits.
At present, the company is actively gathering data about potential partners by querying developers about their audience size and current monetization models. It remains unclear when this feature will be available to the general public.
