OpenAI acquires chat.com

Chat.com sells for $15M plus to ChatGPT company OpenAI.

OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT and perhaps the most ideal company to own the domain name, has acquired chat.com.

HubSpot founder Dharmesh Shah originally bought the domain last year, plunking down over $15.5 million for the domain name. He turned around and sold the domain shortly thereafter for a profit, but he didn’t name the buyer.

Now, it is confirmed that OpenAI was the buyer. Shah confirmed that he took some of the purchase price in shares.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman posted a one-word tweet this morning, stating merely “chat.com”.
