The Oracle OpenAI partnership was significantly expanded. The collaboration brings ChatGPT and Codex into Oracle’s enterprise applications, while also making access available through the Oracle Marketplace.
What happened?
The Oracle OpenAI announcement took place on October 27, 2026, during Oracle AI World in Las Vegas. The companies will connect Oracle applications, data and cloud infrastructure to ChatGPT, allowing businesses to use AI directly in core operations. New products include Oracle AI Workspace, Oracle App Composer (which uses Codex to build apps) and a small-business bundle.
Key details
- Oracle customers in the US can purchase access to the OpenAI API, Codex and ChatGPT Work via the Marketplace using Universal Credits.
- Oracle already has around 130,000 active ChatGPT users and more than 95,000 Codex users internally.
- Hardware expansion on OCI: support for Google TPUs, OpenAI’s Jalapeño chip and Cerebras.
- Sam Altman joined a keynote with Oracle executives.
Why it matters
The Oracle OpenAI integration brings generative AI closer to systems companies already use daily (ERP, databases, cloud). This accelerates enterprise adoption of agents and coding tools while reducing procurement and governance barriers. The partnership strengthens both companies’ position in the corporate AI market.
