OpenAI launches 32-partner marketplace to offset spend commitments

At DevDay, OpenAI unveiled a marketplace with 32 launch partners that lets customers apply their OpenAI spend commitments to third-party purchases. Baseten is the first outside provider of open models on the list. Anthropic, by contrast, blocks Claude Pro accounts from being used with third-party tools.

• OpenAI's marketplace launches with 32 partners, including Baseten
• Offset covers only a fixed percentage of spend and is capped
• Billing runs directly through the partner, with OpenAI reconciling commitments
• Anthropic blocks Claude Pro use in third-party tools like OpenCode
