OpenAI Business Beta: Korea Verification Support Undisclosed

OpenAI has launched Businesses in ChatGPT in beta for managing business information. Business Agents are for eligible U.S. businesses, and support for verifying Korean businesses has not been specified.

OpenAI has released Businesses in ChatGPT in beta. It was announced on November 10, 2026. Business Agents is for eligible e-commerce and online service businesses in the United States.

The information in this article was checked against OpenAI's announcements, help articles, and policies as of November 12, 2026.

A business information management service has been released in beta

Businesses in ChatGPT is a service that lets businesses manage their information. OpenAI said it has released the service in beta. Businesses can edit their information in the Business Hub management space.

OpenAI's ChatGPT release notes describe the following features.

Different conditions apply to managing business information and publishing a Business Agent. Business verification alone does not guarantee eligibility to use an agent. This condition is stated in the Business Agents Policy.

Business registration and agents have different regional availability

Business registration and Business Agents do not cover the same businesses. OpenAI explains that eligible businesses in regions where ChatGPT is available can apply to register. Registered businesses can provide up-to-date information and view analytics. However, support for verifying Korean businesses has not been specified.

Category Eligibility stated in official documents What Korean businesses need to check
Business registration, information sharing, and insights Eligible businesses in regions where ChatGPT is available Whether verification is supported for Korean businesses and the detailed review criteria
Local store and restaurant registration Currently limited to existing business listings in the United States This cannot be interpreted as support for registering stores in Korea
Business Agents Eligible e-commerce and online service businesses in the United States No launch schedule for Korea has been specified
Business profile management Business owners or authorized representatives Whether they have permission to manage the profile

Local stores and restaurants have separate registration restrictions. Currently, registration applications are accepted only for existing business listings in the United States. This restriction appears in OpenAI's business setup help article.

Pricing and verification support for Korea have not yet been confirmed

The official guidance reviewed does not specify service pricing or what is available for free. A beta release does not, by itself, mean the service is free to use. The availability of a separate API and usage limits also remain unconfirmed.

Undisclosed item Details that cannot currently be confirmed
Service pricing Usage fees and what is available for free
Verification for Korean businesses Whether verification is supported and the detailed review criteria
Business Agents availability in Korea Launch schedule for Korea
API and usage limits Whether a separate API is available and what usage limits apply
Conditions for displaying insights Minimum number of conversations and interactions required for display

Business mention counts and website clicks are examples of metrics businesses can view. This guidance provides no figures for sales growth or improved visibility resulting from these features. The ability to view metrics should not be interpreted as a guarantee of results.

Korean businesses need to check management permissions and eligibility for each feature

Korean businesses need to check the conditions for business registration and agent use separately. Only business owners or authorized representatives are allowed to manage profiles. This principle is stated in the Businesses in ChatGPT policy.

The following items should be checked when considering the service.

Registering a business does not guarantee higher visibility rankings or sales. OpenAI states this on its service overview page. Applying to register is not a process that promises search visibility or sales results.

A Business Agent is made available to users only if the business chooses to publish it. Registering a business alone does not automatically make its agent public. Publishing conditions can be found in the Businesses in ChatGPT Terms.
