How OpenAI launched on X
2.7M views, ranked 333 of the 1981 launches we track. Reach and saves both sit close to where the rest of this list sits.
We’ve been researching new ways for ChatGPT memory to carry context across conversations and keep it useful over time. Today, that work is rolling out as a more capable memory system in ChatGPT.
How it compares
A launch means nothing against no one. These are the launches it is actually comparable to, and where this one sits among them.
| Compared with | Launches | Median views | This one | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Product news the same kind of announcement | 769 | 805K | 3.4x | 155 |
| over 100K followers accounts of a similar size | 611 | 1.4M | 1.9x | 199 |
| Every launch all of them, for scale | 1981 | 688K | 3.9x | 333 |
What this launch shows
The post went out from an account with 5.4M followers and was seen by fewer people than follow the account. For over 100K followers the usual multiple is 2.4, so the ranking model showed this to fewer strangers than it shows most launches.
It ranks 199 of 611 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 3.9 times the median of 688K views.
Reposts led, 986 at 3.6 per 10,000 views against a median of 2.5.
A repost is an endorsement without a comment, and a launch with an unusual repost rate was being passed along on purpose. Bookmarks: 3K. Replies: 736.
It starts “We’ve been researching new ways for ChatGPT memory to carry context across conversations and keep it useful over…”.
It carries no media, which leaves the ranking model nothing to hold a reader with past the first line. The copy runs 34 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.
The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it. It went out on a Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 724K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
Why posts from large accounts under-reach covers this: a post seen by fewer people than follow the account was held back by the ranking model.
For the next one, read whether a launch needs a video: 99% of the launches in the directory carry one, and the guide is about when the 1% is the right call.
What viral AI launches share is the guide for it: model launches are the largest category in the directory and travel on the demo. Every launch we track in Frontier Lab is on that vertical's directory page.
