OpenAI and Google reach a major AI distribution agreement. OpenAI will offer GPT-6 Astra and Codex in Google Cloud's Model Garden within weeks.
OpenAI will make its frontier models, including GPT-6 Astra, and its Codex coding agent available through Google Cloud's Model Garden in the coming weeks. Customers will be able to buy them through Google Cloud Marketplace and count the purchases against existing cloud spending commitments, putting OpenAI's models on all three major US clouds. This deepens ties between two rivals and underscores how major cloud providers are becoming key distributors of top AI models.
