OpenAI DevDays 2025: The Business OS Era Has Arrived
Welcome to the Age of the Business Super-Agents
We all knew OpenAI’s DevDays 2025 would be a milestone, a shot of pure, undiluted disruption.
What I didn’t expect?
The how of it all!
OpenAI has blown past incremental upgrades and handed us two keys to the future: the AppSDK and AgentSDK.
AppSDK: Imagine ChatGPT not just chatting, but transacting. Integrated apps like Booking.com, Spotify, Canva - right inside your conversation. And here’s where it gets really spicy: soon, both you and your AI agents will seamlessly shop, book, schedule, and get things done. No more juggling websites, deciphering complex layouts, or playing search-engine charades.
The right product meets the right need, instantly.AgentSDK: Agent Builder and Chat Builder take this transformation to the next level. Think visual, drag-and-drop automation, but with muscle: built-in guardrails, deep evaluation features, flexible logic, and data integration most workflow tools only dream about. I love n8n and Zapier but I’m sorry, for business use this changes your game fundamentally.
All this without forcing your team to abandon the ChatGPT tool they already know. Sure, some integrations will take a few more months to not require engineering, but the foundation is set. The future business OS isn’t coming, it’s already booting.
What Sets Agent Builder Apart?
Guardrails & Evaluations: Real businesses need more than ‘move fast and break things’. They need agents that move fast and follow the rules. OpenAI bakes in monitoring, compliance policies, and intelligent oversight.
One Central Hub: Securely blend Google Drive, OneDrive, mission-critical databases. Your data is now at the core of every automation, search, and decision. No more duct-taping platforms, writing custom integrations or risking confidential data exposure through leaky custom GPTs.
No PhD Required: Before, this kind of orchestration demanded deep technical mastery. Now? It’s as easy as building a flowchart.
Why This Is the Game-Changer
Everything in one place + non-stop innovation.
New apps and nodes drop regularly, exponentially expanding what’s possible.
As the AgentSDK ecosystem matures, even your most bespoke, proprietary workflows will be fair game for automation.
But Here’s the Catch (and the Genius):
Vendor Lock-In, The Nice Way: OpenAI wants you mapping vital business logic onto their platform. The Agent Builder runs on API pricing. This is usage-based, not just a chat subscription.
Future-Proofing: Your business OS evolves right alongside the fastest AI upgrades in existence. Blink twice and your agents are learning new tricks and inspire completely new business processes impossible before.
OpenAI isn’t just making chatbots smarter; they’re quietly constructing the backbone of tomorrow’s business infrastructure: guardrails, security, automation, all in one unified platform.
