- OpenAI Frontier lets enterprises manage OpenAI, proprietary and third-party agents
- Each AI agent gets its own unique identity, permissions and guardrail
- The company sees this as a collaborative approach
OpenAI has launched Frontier, a new AI agent management platform where enterprise customers can build, deploy and manage agent AI from both OpenAI and third-party companies.
In its announcement, the ChatGPT maker hinted that Frontier is designed to address agent proliferation, where fragmented tools, siled data and interrupted workflows reduce the effectiveness of AI agents.
“Frontier gives agents the same skills people need to succeed at work: shared context, onboarding, hands-on learning with feedback, and clear permissions and boundaries,” the company said.

Speaking of siled data and fragmented tools, OpenAI said AI is not responsible, but rather it amplified a problem that already existed before: “AI made that fragmentation more visible and, in many cases, more acute.”
The company took a human approach to managing AI agents, considering what employees need to get started and then applying the same principles to AI agents.
Frontier is designed to let agents work across different environments, including on-premises, cloud, and OpenAI hosted, but more importantly, it uses open standards so companies can use OpenAI agents, in-house agents, and third-party agents within this one platform.
The system works broadly by giving each AI agent its own unique identity, which includes permissions and guardrails, minimizing concerns about working in regulated environments.
In addition to early adopters like Intuit, HP, Oracle and Uber, who helped guide OpenAI’s project, the company also plans to work with Frontier Partners like Abridge, Clay, Ambience, Decagon, Harvey and Sierra to “learn what customers need.”
