OpenAI ships role-specific plugins for Codex, opening the platform to third-party developers

OpenAI released 62 apps and 110 capabilities for Codex, including role-specific plugins for data analysis, sales, product design, and investment banking. Legal and marketing plugins are in development.

Two new features: "Sites" lets users publish analyses or plans as interactive websites, and "Annotations" lets people highlight parts of documents or tables and request changes directly. Wix, Figma, and Replit are early third-party developer partners.

More than five million people now use Codex each week. The non-developer group—analysts, designers, and bankers—is growing three times faster than the developer base, according to OpenAI.
