According to Axios, OpenAI is delaying the launch of a GPT store until early next year. The store was expected to open last month. From the report: OpenAI’s announcement of custom GPTs and the accompanying store was a highlight of last month’s DevDay conference. “We are now planning to launch the GPT Store early next year,” OpenAI said in the memo. “While we had expected to release it this month, a few unexpected things have been keeping us busy!”

For now the custom GPTs can be shared directly via a link. With the store, developers will be able to distribute them more broadly and OpenAI has also said it plans to share some revenue it gets from ChatGPT Plus subscriptions with those who create popular GPTs, though it has yet to release details. “In the meantime, we will have some other great updates to ChatGPT soon,” the company told developers. “Thank you for investing time to build a GPT.”
