Overview
- Atlas embeds ChatGPT throughout the browsing experience so it can understand pages, answer questions and assist in real time without switching tools.
- Agent mode handles multi-step tasks under safety limits, including no code execution, no access to files outside the browser and pausing on sensitive pages.
- The macOS app is available now across all ChatGPT plans with Business, Enterprise and Edu in beta, and versions for Windows, iOS and Android are planned.
- Review highlights include quick page summaries, context-aware help, thread memory and in-browser writing, while some early users and a Tom’s Guide reviewer found it unnecessary for casual, mobile-first use.
- OpenAI cites upcoming features like multi-profile support and deeper SDK integration, and the product offers optional memory and privacy controls as experts caution about risks such as prompt injection.
