ChatGPT, the conversational AI developed by OpenAI, has introduced a new feature called “Study Together,” which has recently emerged in the drop-down list of available tools for select subscribers. Users have begun to read the fine print on this new feature. Conversations about how to use it, and where to find it, are booming, particularly on forums like Reddit and X, formerly known as Twitter.
Early reports of “Study Together” showed up on Reddit, with students excitedly reporting seeing it as an option offered to them. On a broader level, this feature seems poised to enrich group and peer-based learning experiences through the ChatGPT interface. Though all ChatGPT subscribers don’t have access to this new tool yet. That leaves much open to interpretation as to how it will be implemented and what requirements could be in place.
Aside from Reddit threads, users are diving into the conversation on X by searching for the term “%22Study%20together%22. With continued efforts, the public is starting to wonder more about what exactly “Study Together” entails. They want to learn about how it will help users, not just after getting access to it, but before!
With each new feature rollout, there seems to be some sort of confusion or unclear communication around their availability and compatibility with different subscription plans. At the time of publishing, OpenAI had not announced a release date for “Study Together.” It’s not clear yet if it will be released to general users or limited to ChatGPT Plus subscribers.

This new addition greatly increases the level of user engagement and opens up even more possibilities for OpenAI’s state-of-the-art AI models. This functionality promotes group study sessions to be interactive and engaging. Not only would it change the way users engage with the platform, but it would foster collaborative learning environments.
