OpenAI Launches Web Browser to Compete with Google Chrome
- On October 21, 2025, OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Atlas with a livestream set for 10 a.m. PT/1 p.m. ET, describing it as its 'new browser' launching globally on macOS, with Windows, iOS, and Android coming soon.
- Amid AI-driven changes in search, OpenAI aims to capture more traffic and ad revenue, competing with Google parent Alphabet's Chrome and Perplexity AI's Comet browser.
- The browser features an Ask ChatGPT sidebar that stays open while you browse, includes an Operator AI agent and Cursor Chat for tasks, and uses browser memory to personalize responses.
- Shares of Google parent Alphabet fell 4% after OpenAI announced the launch, and observers said OpenAI was already hitting Google where it hurts as the livestream went live.
- As AI browsers become a battleground, Atlas's Chromium base and agent pairing position OpenAI for wider impact with a Mac-first rollout and Windows and mobile versions soon.
