OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Pulse, a new mobile feature that researches on your behalf overnight and delivers a personalized morning digest. Available now for Pro users with a wider rollout promised, Pulse summarizes your day as topical visual cards you can quickly scan or open for details.
It can track things you care about—from Formula One updates and language lessons to menu advice for an evening event—and suggest practical next steps. Pulse learns from what you share with ChatGPT. If chat history is enabled, it uses past conversations to tailor what it finds. If you connect apps like your calendar, email, and Google Contacts, you will be asked to grant access so it can prepare for your day.
OpenAI says the feature is part of its move toward AI agents that act on goals, not just prompts, and help with planning, research, and task follow-through. Applications chief Fidji Simo called agents the next frontier: assistants that understand your aims and help you reach them. In a demo, Pulse pulled prompts from a user’s schedule, requests, and preferences.
It mapped a 45 to 50 minute run that ended near a team dinner venue, offered a dairy-free ordering plan, and suggested tweaks the user might want to remember for tomorrow. Other cards included a daily core or Pilates routine, a fuel stop plan for an upcoming birthday hike, and a recovery exercise after travel. OpenAI’s personalization lead said Pulse is meant to shift ChatGPT from reactive answers to proactive guidance with information, ideas, and tactical next steps.
OpenAI says feedback on a person’s Pulse improves only that person’s future digests. The company adds that data use follows the same rules as regular ChatGPT chats, and that policy and safety teams apply filters and restrictions intended to avoid harmful reinforcement or echo chambers, though specifics were not provided.
A technical lead emphasized that Pulse is designed to be useful, not addictive: the experience ends, with no infinite scroll. For now, Pulse is limited to mobile and Pro subscribers, with broader availability expected.
