Engineers at OpenAI have joined forces with industry experts to develop a new approach for enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) development. The company has announced a managed product called OpenAI Presence, which is designed to deliver enterprise AI agents directly through its own platform rather than as a self-serve offering.
According to the announcement on July 22, deployments of OpenAI Presence are led by OpenAI's Forward Deployed Engineers, who will work with clients to integrate the products into their existing infrastructure. This managed service model aims to provide more structured support and guidance for customers transitioning from open-source AI solutions like TensorFlow and PyTorch.
By leveraging OpenAI Presence as a managed product, clients can focus on developing and deploying AI models without having to manage the underlying technology. The company's presence in this space is part of its broader effort to expand its offerings beyond the traditional research-focused community.
