OpenAI will hold DevDay 2026 on September 29 in San Francisco. The company’s main annual conference is aimed at developers: it usually showcases new tools, explains what the platform can do and hosts technical sessions.
What we know so far
The official agenda confirms a keynote, hands-on demos, workshops and technical talks. Attendees will be able to discuss APIs, development tools and ways to use models in products.
In-person registration is already closed, but the opening session is set to be streamed. For the wider audience, that is usually where the biggest announcements and details about upcoming updates come from.
What not to expect before the presentation
Until DevDay begins, leaks and guesses should not be treated as confirmed features. The industry is busy discussing new models, agents and coding tools, but only the official access terms, pricing, regions and launch date really matter.
Even a major announcement may initially be available to a limited group of developers or users. So after the conference, it’s important to look not only at the product’s name but also at who has access to it at launch.
Why it’s not just programmers who follow DevDay
New APIs and AI features quickly make their way into the apps, websites and work tools that ordinary people use. The conference shapes which capabilities will show up over the coming months in editors, support services, education and everyday apps.
We will update this article once OpenAI publishes specific announcements and their launch terms.
