Archive item — written before sources were shown.
OpenAI says agent deployments cut a manufacturer's optimization work from six weeks to a day and added over $1B in revenue at an energy producer.
OpenAI published a set of customer results on August 12: a manufacturer cut a production-optimization task from six weeks to one day, an investment firm freed up more than 90% of salespeople’s time by running its sales process through agents end to end, and an energy producer says agent-assisted operations lifted output up to 5%, worth over $1 billion in added revenue. OpenAI also cites Codex usage growing more than 5x since the start of the year among customers building multi-agent engineering workflows.
