OpenAI models enter Google Cloud private preview, not general release

Selected enterprises may be invited to test; general availability is planned in coming weeks, with HK/Macau/Taiwan eligibility unconfirmed.

OpenAI and Google Cloud announced their partnership on October 21, 2026. Google says GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Luna are entering private preview for selected enterprises, through APIs and Codex workflows. The application limits preview use to approved development and internal purposes, not production; no exact effective time is given.

Models will be purchased through Google Cloud Marketplace. Prices, quotas, Traditional Chinese support and three-market eligibility were not announced. This is not a general ChatGPT web/mobile rollout or removal of regional restrictions. Google Antigravity integration is still upcoming. Not tested here.
