OPENAI'S B2B MARKETPLACE: THE HYPERSCALER OF AI APPS

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

The OpenAI B2B marketplace opened on September 29 with 32 partners. OpenAI wants to position itself as the platform that the wider AI ecosystem is built on and relies on for distribution. This will consolidate AI sprawl and make it easier for customers to budget. If the marketplace gains traction, we may see an evolution similar to the cloud ecosystem where labs and AI apps co-sell, apps get charged a listing fee, and buyers receive one invoice for their spend.
