OpenAI acquires chat.com – Domain Name Wire | Domain Name News

Chat.com sells for $15M plus for the third time in two years.

The chat.com domain name has changed hands for the third time in two years.

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

HubSpot founder Dharmesh Shah kicked off the buying last year, plunking down over $15.5 million for the domain name. He turned around and sold the domain shortly thereafter for a profit.

Now, OpenAI has paid what is undoubtedly an even higher price.

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