OpenAI takes on Chrome with ChatGPT Atlas browser for macOS – and Windows, iOS, and Android are ‘coming soon’

  • ChatGPT Atlas is a new browser from OpenAI that integrates ChatGPT directly into the browsing experience
  • It remembers your browsing context, lets you ask questions, automate tasks, and even clean up your tabs
  • Agent mode lets Atlas take actions on your behalf in the browser, now previewed for Plus, Pro, and Business users

OpenAI has officially launched ChatGPT Atlas, a new AI-powered web browser that is launching today for macOS users around the world. Windows, iOS, and Android versions are on the way, with a ‘coming soon’ timeframe.

ChatGPT Atlas folds ChatGPT capabilities directly into the browser itself. Instead of switching tabs to talk to a chatbot, the assistant is baked into the browsing experience. When you use Atlas, you’ll see both a webpage and a ChatGPT transcript that keeps the AI companion visible at all times (unless you turn it off). It can even fix up your writing in an email through what OpenAI calls cursor chat.

The AI can help summarize pages, fill out forms, make reservations, and perform other tasks automatically. The new browser represents OpenAI’s biggest step yet into software for daily use and offers a memory feature to personalize the experience and make it more useful on an individual level, as it can remember your preferences.

Atlas likely won’t feel unfamiliar to most web browsers. But under the hood, it seems like it’s running OpenAI’s Operator agent, an existing AI engine capable of navigating pages, executing actions, and adapting in real time.

For everyday users, the appeal is obvious. Forget juggling extensions, copying URLs into a chatbot, or manually typing the same shipping address for the fiftieth time. If Atlas works as promised, browsing could become not only more intelligent but also refreshingly low-maintenance.
