Introducing Prism

科学影响着日常生活的方方面面——从我们依赖的药物，到为家庭供能的电力，再到保障安全的各类系统。但科学进展的速度仍受限于日常研究工作的方式。尽管人工智能发展迅速，许多科研的日常工作仍然依赖几十年来没有根本变化的工具。

我们推出了一个名为 Prism 的免费、以 AI 为原生设计的科研写作与协作工作区，内置由 GPT‑5.2 提供能力的模型。 Prism 支持不限项目和协作者，今天任何拥有 ChatGPT 个人账户 的用户均可使用。

针对使用 ChatGPT Business 、 ChatGPT Team 、 ChatGPT Enterprise 和 ChatGPT Education 计划的组织， Prism 将很快开放。

从各自为战的工具到一体化工作流

过去一年里，我们已开始看到 AI 在多个领域加速科学工作。像 GPT‑5 这样的高级推理系统，正在推动数学研究前沿、加快对人体免疫细胞实验的分析，并在分子生物学的湿实验中缩短实验迭代周期。

尽管仍处于早期阶段，但显而易见，AI 将在科学进展中发挥重要作用。

与此同时，研究的日常工作——起草论文、修改论点、管理公式与参考文献、与合作者协调——仍分散在互不相通的工具之间。研究者常在文本编辑器、PDF、 LaTeX 编译器、参考文献管理软件和独立的聊天界面间切换，导致上下文丢失和注意力中断。

Prism 是我们应对这种碎片化的第一步。

什么是 Prism

Prism 是一个面向科学写作与协作的免费工作区，直接将我们在数学与科学推理方面最先进的模型 GPT‑5.2 嵌入到工作流程中。

它将起草、修改、协作和发表准备整合到单一的云端、以 LaTeX 为原生格式的工作区中。与其作为写作过程之外的独立工具， GPT‑5.2 是在项目内部运行的——可以访问论文结构、公式、参考文献及周边上下文。

Prism 建立在被 OpenAI 收购的云端 LaTeX 平台 Crixet 的基础上，并在此基础上发展为统一产品。这让我们得以从成熟的写作与协作环境出发，将 AI 以自然契合科学工作流程的方式整合进来。

使用 Prism，研究者可以：

• 与 GPT‑5.2 Thinking 聊天，在上下文中探索想法、检验假设并推理复杂科学问题
• 在全文上下文（包括文本、公式、引用、图表与整体结构）下起草与修改论文
• 在当前手稿的上下文中检索并纳入相关文献（例如来自 arXiv 的资料），并据此修订文字
• 创建、重构并在论文内部对公式、引用与图表进行推理，AI 能理解这些元素在全文中的相互关系
• 将白板上的公式或示意图直接转换为 LaTeX ，节省逐像素处理图形的数小时工作
• 与合作者、学生和导师实时协作，编辑、评论与修订即时同步
• 在文档中直接按需原位修改，而无需在不同编辑器或聊天工具间复制粘贴内容
• 使用可选的语音编辑功能，在不打断写作或审阅节奏的情况下完成简单修改

面向大规模协作的设计

科学研究本质上就是协作。论文往往由合作者、学生、导师和审稿人在跨机构、跨地域的长期互动中逐步成形。

Prism 支持无限协作者，允许研究团队在没有席位限制或访问障碍的情况下共同工作。由于基于云端，无需在本地安装 LaTeX 或管理环境，从而降低了团队协作的门槛。

通过减少版本冲突、手动合并与机械性开销， Prism 让团队把更多时间花在研究实质上，而不是文件管理上。

扩大科研工具的可及性

同样重要的是， Prism 的设计目标还包括扩大可及性。

Prism 可免费使用，任何拥有 ChatGPT 账户 的人都可以立即开始写作。无需订阅或席位限制。通过让高质量的科研工具更易采纳并广泛可用，我们希望使更多研究者——无论机构、学科或职业阶段——都能更充分地参与科学进程。

更强大的 AI 功能将随着时间通过付费的 ChatGPT 计划逐步开放。

为何现在重要

2025 年，AI 永远改变了软件开发。我们预计到 2026 年，科学领域也将迎来类似的转变——AI 开始在多方面显著加速发现，其中之一就是降低日常研究工作的摩擦。 Prism 是通往这一未来的早期一步。

我们期待从今天使用 Prism 的研究者那里学习，并继续打造能让科学更快前进的工具——共同推进。立即免费试用： prism.openai.com 。

Science shapes nearly every part of daily life—from the medicines we rely on, to the energy that powers our homes, to the systems that keep us safe. But the pace of scientific progress is still constrained by how research is done day to day. While AI has advanced rapidly, much of the everyday work of science still relies on tools that haven’t fundamentally changed in decades.

We’re introducing Prism, a free, AI-native workspace for scientists to write and collaborate on research, powered by GPT‑5.2. Prism offers unlimited projects and collaborators and is available today to anyone with a ChatGPT personal account.

Prism will be available soon to organizations using ChatGPT Business, Team, Enterprise, and Education plans.

From isolated tools to integrated workflows

Over the past year, we’ve begun to see AI accelerate scientific work across domains. Advanced reasoning systems like GPT‑5 are helping push the frontiers⁠ of mathematics, accelerating the analysis⁠ of human immune-cell experiments, and speeding up experimental iteration⁠ in molecular biology.

We’re still early, but it’s clear that AI will play a meaningful role in how science advances.

At the same time, much of the everyday work of research—drafting papers, revising arguments, managing equations and citations, and coordinating with collaborators —remains fragmented across disconnected tools. Researchers often move between editors, PDFs, LaTeX compilers, reference managers, and separate chat interfaces, losing context and interrupting focus.

Prism is our first step toward addressing this fragmentation.

What Prism is

Prism is a free workspace for scientific writing and collaboration, with GPT‑5.2⁠—our most advanced model for mathematical and scientific reasoning—integrated directly into the workflow.

It brings drafting, revision, collaboration, and preparation for publication into a single, cloud-based, LaTeX-native workspace. Rather than operating as a separate tool alongside the writing process, GPT‑5.2 works within the project itself—with access to the structure of the paper, equations, references, and surrounding context.

Prism builds on the foundation of Crixet, a cloud-based LaTeX platform that OpenAI acquired and has since evolved into Prism as a unified product. This allowed us to start with a strong base of a mature writing and collaboration environment, and integrate AI in a way that fits naturally into scientific workflows.

With Prism, researchers can:

• Chat with GPT‑5.2 Thinking, to explore ideas, test hypotheses, and reason through complex scientific problems in context
• Draft and revise papers with the full document as context, including surrounding text, equations, citations, figures, and overall structure
• Search for and incorporate relevant literature (for example, from arXiv) in the context of the current manuscript, and revise text in light of newly identified related work
• Create, refactor, and reason over equations, citations, and figures, with AI that understands how those elements relate across the paper
• Turn whiteboard equations or diagrams directly into LaTeX, saving hours of time manipulating graphics pixel-by-pixel
• Collaborate with co-authors, students, and advisors in real time, with edits, comments, and revisions reflected immediately
• Make direct, in-place changes to the document when requested, without copying content between separate editors or chat tools
• Use optional voice-based editing to make simple changes without interrupting writing or review

Built for collaboration at scale

Scientific research is inherently collaborative. Papers are shaped over time by co-authors, students, advisors, and reviewers, often across institutions and geographies.

Prism supports unlimited collaborators, allowing research teams to work together without seat limits or access barriers. Because it’s cloud-based, there’s no local LaTeX installation or environment management required, making it easier for teams to collaborate in a shared workspace.

By reducing version conflicts, manual merging, and mechanical overhead, Prism helps teams spend less time managing files and more time engaging with the substance of their work.

Expanding access to scientific tools

Just as importantly, Prism is designed to expand access.

Prism is free to use, and anyone with a ChatGPT account can start writing immediately. There are no subscriptions or seat limits. By making high-quality scientific tools easier to adopt and broadly available, we hope to enable more researchers—across institutions, disciplines, and career stages—to participate fully in the scientific process.

More powerful AI features will be made available through paid ChatGPT plans over time.

Why this matters now

In 2025, AI changed software development forever. In 2026, we expect a comparable shift in science, as AI begins to meaningfully accelerate discovery in several ways, one of which is reducing friction in day-to-day research work. Prism is an early step toward that future.

We’re excited to learn from researchers using Prism today and to continue building toward tools that help science move faster—together. Try Prism for free today at prism.openai.com⁠.
