Source-backed announcement / revision 6

Planned custom GPT retirement and migration to plugins

ChatGPTRetirementAnnounced

Correction: Updated: OpenAI's FAQ now says new GPT creation ended on October 26, 2026 for affected Enterprise workspaces, with the exception of FedRAMP workspaces, so the timing no longer calls it planned. It also names FedRAMP workspaces, along with affected Enterprise workspaces with a qualifying, approved deferral, for the February 11, 2027 retirement date. Retirement is still December 11, 2026.

OpenAI plans to retire custom GPTs and help creators move them to plugins.

  • Existing GPTs remain usable until their applicable retirement date.
  • Test the replacement before switching: custom actions and sharing settings do not transfer automatically.
Who can use it
All ChatGPT plans; migration and plugin access vary by account or workspace. FedRAMP workspaces and affected Enterprise workspaces with a qualifying, approved deferral have a later retirement date; it does not apply to every workspace. Follow your account notice.
