OpenAI published a form on Tuesday to understand if third-party app developers would prefer their users to sign in using ChatGPT accounts. If implemented, the San Francisco-based AI firm will become an identity provider (IDP) for third-party apps, and let them Open Authorisation (OAuth) via ChatGPT accounts. Notably, the company has already added a similar experience in its recently released Codex CLI platform. Based on the form, OpenAI is gauging interest from smaller apps with fewer than 1,000 weekly active users to larger apps with up to 100 million weekly active users.

As mentioned above, OpenAI has already created a similar “Sign in to Codex CLI with ChatGPT” experience, where the users of the terminal can log into the platform using their existing ChatGPT accounts. The company highlights that it shares the user’s name, email, and profile picture with the platform, but not the chat history.
