For VC firms, ChatGPT is the everyday AI surface for memo drafting, market research, diligence, and LP communications. Custom GPTs on firm playbooks turn it into a portable reasoning layer with document analysis, browsing, canvas, voice, image gen, and Deep Research. Atlas, OpenAI's browser, pipes every page and search the team views into ChatGPT context. The API wires into proprietary tools for screening, founder profiling, and portfolio analysis.
