How Cooley is accelerating IPO work with ChatGPT

Cooley, a major law firm, developed GO Public, a proprietary AI product built on ChatGPT Work (OpenAI's enterprise AI tool) to speed up initial public offering (IPO, the process of a private company becoming publicly traded) preparation. The system uses an agentic harness (an AI agent manager that controls which tasks AI performs automatically versus which require human review) to analyze and synthesize large amounts of information, allowing lawyers to focus on high-value strategic decisions rather than manual document review.
