# OpenAI — GPT-5.5

> AI lab announcements, news reports and podcasts.

forck.live follows what companies announce about their own products. Press may
corroborate an official story; it never leads and never appears as an item of its
own. A missing date stays missing. A title is the publisher's words — where a
company does not publish in English, an English rendering is listed separately
as `Title in English` and named as this site's translation, never as theirs.

This file is the record of one model version: what the model registry states
about it, OpenAI's launch post, the first-party posts this record
holds about it, the outlets that reported on those posts, and other companies'
announcements that it runs on their platforms. A model ranks nothing here and
nothing is composed: each date names whose it is, and a field nothing states is
`not stated` rather than missing.

## Posts about it

_OpenAI's own posts whose title names GPT-5.5, and its launch post, in the record's order: dated newest first, undated last. The record reads the newest 50 first-party posts mentioning the model, every company's together, so a model mentioned more often than that lists the newest of them._

Every entry is one first-party announcement, and carries the same eight fields
in this order before any others:

    Company · Announced · Category · Coverage · Announcement · Group · Source · Record

`Source` is the company's own page the announcement was traced to and `Record`
is this site's page for it. Both are safe to cite.

`Coverage` is a number of outlets, or `not counted` — which means this record
reached no count of its own, never that nobody wrote about it.

`Category` is this tracker's own analysis, and is authoritative wherever it is
stated. `not stated` means either that nothing has analysed the post yet or
that the analysis placed it outside this taxonomy; neither is a verdict about
the announcement.

`Announcement` is whether the post is news of something the company did, rather
than a how-to, a customer story, a changelog listing or a staffing note.

`Group` is which of this record's groups the entry falls in, carried on the
entry itself so it holds where the groups are headings and where they are not.
One of: `models`, `covered`, `announcements`, `routine`.

Anything after `Record` is held detail that only some announcements carry.

- Record: https://forck.live/items/17767-openai-models-in-openclaw-done-right
- Subject: OpenClaw

OpenClaw now routes OpenAI model agent turns through the native Codex app-server runtime by default. Codex handles the model loop, tool continuation, and dynamic tool search, while OpenClaw manages channels, persona, memory, and other product features. This reduces translation overhead and improves tool handling for OpenAI models.

- Subject: Amp

Amp has updated its deep mode to run on GPT-5.5, which is a better coding agent than GPT-5.4 with improved steerability, interactivity, and constraint adherence. The default reasoning effort in deep mode was changed from high to medium because higher effort performed worse in evaluations.

### Databricks — OpenAI GPT-5.5 + Codex, now available and fully governed on Databricks

- Company: Databricks (databricks.com)

- Record: https://forck.live/items/25347-openai-gpt-5-5-codex-now-available-and-fully-governed-on-databricks
- Subject: Mosaic AI

Databricks has added OpenAI's GPT-5.5 to its platform, letting enterprise customers run the frontier model on their own data with governance from day one. Databricks says GPT-5.5 is OpenAI's strongest frontier model for agentic enterprise work, complex document reasoning, and long-horizon coding agents. Unity AI Gateway governs both GPT-5.5 model inference and Codex coding workflows through a single control plane. That layer adds per-user and per-group permissions and rate limits, guardrails that detect PII and block prompt injection, MCP governance, automatic failover, and observability. Every request is logged with identity, tokens, latency, and cost in Delta tables the customer owns, and customers get one consolidated bill. GPT-5.5 is available now on Databricks across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and Codex can be deployed through Unity AI Gateway.

### Lovable — Testing GPT-5.5 in early access: what we are seeing so far

- Company: Lovable (lovable.dev)
- Announced: 2026-04-24T14:30:00+00:00
- Category: model-update
- Coverage: not counted

- Record: https://forck.live/items/12087-testing-gpt-5-5-in-early-access-what-we-are-seeing-so-far
- Subject: Lovable / AI app builder

Lovable tested GPT-5.5 in early access and reports it outperforms GPT-5.4 on complex tasks, with a 12.5% improvement on the hardest benchmark at the same cost, 23.1% fewer tool calls per request, and 9.9% higher likelihood of resolving blocking tasks. The model is described as more cost-efficient and better at unblocking builders during stalled build sessions.

### Databricks — Databricks partners with OpenAI on GPT-5.5

- Subject: Mosaic AI

Databricks is partnering with OpenAI to bring GPT-5.5, OpenAI's latest frontier model, to Databricks, where it will be governed through Unity AI Gateway. Databricks says GPT-5.5 is OpenAI's strongest frontier model for agentic work in enterprise, complex document reasoning and long-horizon coding agents, and that it now powers Codex, OpenAI's coding agent. On OfficeQA Pro with Oracle PDF and web search, GPT-5.5 scored 64.66%, up from GPT-5.4's 57.14%, which Databricks calls a new state of the art on the benchmark. In the full-agent OfficeQA Pro Agent Harness eval, where the model finds and parses documents itself using the Codex agent harness, GPT-5.5 scored 52.63% against GPT-5.4's 36.10%, a 46% reduction in errors. Databricks says the model can write and debug code, research online, analyze data, create documents and spreadsheets, and operate software across tools until a task is finished. GPT-5.5 and Codex are coming soon to Databricks.
