On August 28, 2023, the OpenAI company announced the ChatGPT Enterprise model through a blog post. What is the ChatGPT Enterprise model? Who does it cater to and how is it used? In this article, we conducted a detailed examination of these questions.
What is ChatGPT Enterprise?
ChatGPT Enterprise is OpenAI’s corporate version of ChatGPT, tailored for businesses. With ChatGPT Enterprise, employees within companies can confidently use ChatGPT, encouraging more frequent utilization. This facilitates a more reliable and privileged utilization of ChatGPT within corporate settings. Companies can leverage artificial intelligence technology to enhance their productivity.
Previously, concerns about the sharing of data used with ChatGPT led companies to approach its usage cautiously. In fact, some companies and even certain countries had banned the use of ChatGPT.
What are the features of ChatGPT Enterprise?
The ChatGPT Enterprise plan provides a level of privacy and security at the corporate level.
Additionally, it offers unrestricted access to the GPT-4 model, enabling faster response times. It boasts an increased input capacity and also presents the possibility of personalization. Let’s now take a closer look at these features one by one.
Enhanced Security and Privacy
After the release of ChatGPT, certain companies prohibited their employees from using it due to concerns that the conversations conducted through ChatGPT were being utilized by OpenAI as training data.
Consequently, to prevent their sensitive information from being exposed, many companies banned or restricted their employees from using ChatGPT. This situation limited the potential benefits of leveraging artificial intelligence technology for employees.

With the ChatGPT Enterprise model, the conversations you have using ChatGPT will not be used for training purposes. This ensures that the use of artificial intelligence technology does not compromise the confidentiality of corporate discussions and information.
Additionally, the ChatGPT Enterprise Mode offers Data Encryption at Rest (using AES-256) and In-Transit TLS 1.2 Plus capabilities. It also features the Certified SOC-2 Compliant attribute, ensuring a high level of data security and compliance with industry standards.
Unlimited Access to the GPT-4 Model
Previously, only ChatGPT Plus members had access to the GPT-4 model, but even they had specific usage limits when using GPT-4. For instance, they were allotted 50 messages every 3 hours.

With the ChatGPT Enterprise mode, you have unrestricted access to the GPT-4 model. Furthermore, it’s noted that GPT-4 usage within the ChatGPT Enterprise mode offers performance at up to twice the speed compared to ChatGPT Plus usage.
Expanded Character Limit and Advanced Data Analysis Capability
Traditionally, ChatGPT members had a specific character limit when using ChatGPT. Depending on the version of the GPT model in use, this limit was considered to be around 8,000 tokens in ChatGPT.
Longer responses were challenging for ChatGPT to process comprehensively, and it couldn’t fully understand them. Additionally, when providing responses, it couldn’t transmit longer answers all at once.

The ChatGPT Enterprise model is said to have a context of 32,000 tokens. This 32,000-token character limit is four times longer than the character limit for current ChatGPT members.
Moreover, the ChatGPT Enterprise model enhances the data analysis capabilities introduced with the Code Interpreter model, providing an even more advanced data analysis feature. Similarly, there is an increase in the character limit for data analysis, enabling the analysis of larger datasets.
Personalization Capability
The ChatGPT Enterprise model also offers opportunities for customization, privileges, and features that you can tailor according to your company’s needs.
For instance, it provides an admin console that allows you to manage members or employees who will use this ChatGPT Enterprise model.
It introduces domain verification, restricting access to within your company’s network, ensuring accessibility only from within the organization.
An analytical dashboard displaying usage limits enables you to track how much an employee has utilized.
To facilitate knowledge sharing, shareable chat templates are available specifically for your company, enhancing collaborative workflows.
