OpenAI moved ChatGPT for PowerPoint from beta into general availability for Business workspaces on July 6, giving enterprise teams a free window that closes August 6 — at which point every deck task starts drawing credits from the same pool already being depleted by Workspace Agents, which went live for billing on the same day. The GA announcement arrived alongside two other major releases on July 9: GPT-5.6, OpenAI's new three-tier model family (Sol for flagship performance, Terra for everyday work, Luna for cost efficiency), and ChatGPT Work, a unified agent product that merges Codex's coding capabilities with ChatGPT's interface. ChatGPT for PowerPoint is a Microsoft Office web add-in — a JavaScript-based sidebar that runs inside the actual PowerPoint application. Users install it from the Microsoft Marketplace; enterprise administrators can deploy it internally using a manifest XML file. The sidebar connects to a user's OpenAI account and can build first-draft decks from notes, documents, spreadsheets, or images, and supports Skills and connected apps. OpenAI notes template adherence is not guaranteed, complex formatting is not fully supported, ChatGPT Memory is not available, and slide content is transmitted to OpenAI's servers for inference. For Business, Enterprise, Edu, and Teachers workspaces, data shared with ChatGPT is not used to train OpenAI's models by default.
