Stripe, a financial infrastructure platform for businesses, today announced that OpenAI has chosen Stripe to power payments as it prepares to commercialize innovative AI technologies. it’s ChatGPT and DALL E revolution. Stripe is also integrating OpenAI’s new natural language technology, GPT-4, into its products and services.

“We’re excited to work with Stripe to monetize our flagship products,”

“Beyond payments, Stripe is helping us with everything from recurring billing and tax compliance to automating our financial operations.”

Peter Welinder, vice president of product and partnerships at OpenAI.

Powering OpenAI with Stripe

OpenAI is working with Stripe to commercialize its generative AI technology. Using Stripe’s suite of products, OpenAI was able to launch a global payments system for multiple product lines in a matter of weeks. Highlights of the collaboration include:

• Stripe Billing and Stripe Checkout are powering ChatGPT Plus, OpenAI’s premium subscription offering of ChatGPT. Using Checkout’s prebuilt hosted payments page, OpenAI offers one-time purchases and monthly or usage-based subscriptions and reaches global customers with more than 25 payment methods.
• Stripe Billing offers DALL·E users a flexible, pay-as-you-go option to purchase DALL·E credits, which enable customers to generate new images.
• Link, an evolution of Stripe’s Remember Me product, lets OpenAI users pay 40% faster on average by auto-filling saved payment details. OpenAI is now part of the Link network, which allows tens of millions of users to check out faster with networked payment details saved across hundreds of thousands of businesses.
• Stripe Tax supports OpenAI to meet its tax compliance obligations as it expands into global markets.
• Revenue Recognition helps OpenAI stay on top of its finances—including managing disputes and refunds at scale—so it can accurately close its books each month.

Seventy-five percent of the leading generative AI companies have signed up with Stripe to go to market quickly, scale with compliance in mind, and bring their products to many more users worldwide. They include OpenAI, Runway, Diagram, and Moonbeam.

“As these new AI companies proliferate, we’re helping them with smart monetization strategies that get their products into more hands. Personally, I’m excited to easily buy more DALL·E credits and continue my forays into AI-assisted painting,”

David Singleton, chief technology officer at Stripe.

Enhancing Stripe with GPT-4

Stripe has a long history of using artificial intelligence to improve products and user experience, including helping users manage fraud and increase conversion rates. Last year, Stripe worked with Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI team to implement GPT-3 for Stripe Support, helping support agents define a faster resolution path for the many users they interact with each week.

After participating in the GPT-4 beta in January, Stripe identified multiple ways to use the technology to streamline operations and help users get the information they need faster. One of the first results of this effort was Stripe Docs powered by GPT.

This enhancement to Stripe’s high-quality documentation will allow developers to perform natural language queries in Stripe Docs in GPT-4, which will respond by summarizing relevant sections. relevance of documents or extract specific information. This allows developers to spend less time reading and more time building.
