OpenAI has published two studies examining how enterprises are moving from AI assistance toward agentic execution. As of June, Codex generated 64% of combined ChatGPT and Codex output tokens among enterprise customers.
Frontier firms, defined as the top 10% by AI usage, generated 8.3 times more output tokens per active user than typical firms, up from 2.6 times in January. These organizations also use plugins and skills more frequently.
Agent adoption is expanding beyond engineering, with Codex usage growing rapidly across legal, sales, recruiting, and marketing. OpenAI recommends connecting agents to company tools, governance, permissions, and human review.
